The Toronto Zoo has disclosed a cyberattack that targeted the Zoo in early January 2024. The zoo has since conducted an extensive analysis to understand the full scope of the breach and notify those affected. After months of work, the Toronto Zoo is now issuing a final notification to individuals whose data was   show more ...  

exposed in the cyberattack on Toronto Zoo.  The Toronto Zoo cyberattack involved a breach of personal data, which was later leaked on the dark web. This data includes transaction information related to visitors and members who made general admission and membership purchases between 2000 and April 2023. While the data was leaked, it was done in such a way that downloading the information has been difficult. As of now, it is not publicly available, though there is a possibility that this could change.  The compromised data includes:  First and last names of affected individuals. Street address information, phone numbers, and email addresses for some individuals. Credit card details, including the last four digits of card numbers and expiration dates, but only for those who made transactions between January 2022 and April 2023. While this is a serious breach, the zoo has stated that the information involved is of limited sensitivity. Nevertheless, the zoo is advising all those affected to remain vigilant for potential phishing attempts and online fraud. They recommend that individuals scrutinize any unsolicited communications and regularly monitor their financial statements for signs of unauthorized activity.  Toronto Zoo Cyberattack: Response and Investigation  As soon as the Toronto Zoo cybersecurity incident was detected, the organization moved swiftly to notify affected parties, including current and former employees, volunteers, and donors. The zoo’s response to this breach has been both thorough and transparent, reflecting its commitment to addressing the issue with care and responsibility. The Toronto Zoo has reported the incident to the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Ontario (IPC), which has launched its own investigation into the matter. The IPC has informed the zoo and those affected that filing individual complaints is not necessary, as the commission is already addressing the incident. For further information, individuals can visit the IPC’s official website.  On January 17, 2024, the Toronto Zoo initially disclosed the breach, revealing that personal data had been stolen from a compromised file server. The initial notification focused primarily on current and former staff, with a small number of volunteers also impacted. Affected individuals were offered credit monitoring services due to the nature of the exposed data. At that time, the zoo confirmed that customer information stored in their customer information system was not directly impacted by the breach.  The Impact on Employees and Conservation Efforts  One of the most challenging aspects of this cyberattack on Toronto Zoo has been the loss of sensitive data affecting current and former employees. Beyond the personal toll on those individuals, the breach also led to the unfortunate loss of decades of vital wildlife conservation research. This has caused distress to the zoo’s staff, volunteers, and the broader community, as this research was essential to ongoing wildlife preservation efforts.  In response to this setback, the zoo has worked to enhance its cybersecurity measures. Several steps have been taken to improve the security of the zoo’s information technology infrastructure. These improvements have been made in collaboration with the City of Toronto’s Chief Information Security Office, whose expertise and support have been invaluable during this difficult period. The zoo's efforts are designed to provide stronger network defenses and better capabilities to detect and respond to security issues in the future.  Conclusion   While the Toronto Zoo cyberattack has presented challenges, the zoo is determined to learn from the experience and prevent similar attacks in the future. Grateful for the patience and support of its employees, volunteers, members, guests, and the wider community, the zoo remains committed to transparency and accountability throughout the resolution process

behind the incident.  Minister for Digitalization Krzysztof Gawkowski reported the breach via his official social media account, stating that state cybersecurity services had discovered unauthorized access to POLSA’s network.   Decoding the Cyberattack on POLSA  He explained that in response, the affected systems were secured, and both the Cyber Security Incident Response Team (CSIRT) from the National Research Institute (NASK) and the Ministry of Defense (MON) were brought in to assist POLSA in restoring its operations. Gawkowski assured the public that intensive operational efforts were underway to determine who was behind the cyberattack.  “State services responsible for cybersecurity have detected unauthorized access to the Polish Space Agency's IT infrastructure. In connection with the incident, the systems under attack were secured. CSIRT NASK, together with CSIRT MON, supports POLSA in activities aimed at restoring the operational functioning of the Agency”, says Minister for Digitalisation Krzysztof Gawkowski.  [caption id="attachment_101139" align="alignnone" width="662"] Cyberattack on POLSA (Source: X)[/caption] POLSA, established in 2014, is tasked with overseeing Poland’s space activities, including satellite development, space exploration, and the country’s involvement in international space missions. As a key institution in managing Poland’s space-related operations, a cyberattack on POLSA raises serious concerns about the potential exposure of sensitive information and threats to national security. To mitigate further damage, POLSA quickly disconnected its network from the internet, ensuring that no additional unauthorized access occurred.  While the investigation continues, the geopolitical context surrounding Poland’s support of Ukraine suggests that this attack could be linked to Russia. Poland has frequently accused Moscow of launching cyberattacks to destabilize the country due to its active role in providing military aid to Ukraine.   Rising Cybersecurity Threats and Poland’s Strategic Defense Measures  The cyberattack on POLSA is part of a larger trend of rising cyber threats faced by Poland in recent months. According to the Polish Cyberspace Defence Forces, Poland experienced a sharp increase in cyberattacks throughout 2024. In February of that year, Poland was reportedly the most attacked country in the world, with over 1,000 cyberattacks on organizations occurring each week.   To strengthen the country’s cybersecurity resilience, Poland has partnered with major technology companies, most notably Google. In 2014, Poland and Google signed a memorandum of understanding to develop artificial intelligence (AI)-driven solutions to enhance the nation’s digital security systems.   The partnership aims toupgrade Poland’s defenses against cyber threats and improve the security of critical infrastructures, such as energy systems.   Conclusion  The recent cyberattack on the Polish Space Agency (POLSA) highlights the nature of targeted cyberattack, often exploiting vulnerabilities in digital infrastructure and the growing threats of cyber warfare. The potential involvement of international actors, such as Russia, highlights the intersection of digital threats with political and military conflicts.

You almost certainly know the situation when a friend or colleague sends you files in a format you cant open. For example, you asked for photos, expecting JPEGs or PNGs, but instead they arrive in HEIC format. What do most people do in this case? Thats right, they look for a free online file-converter. If youre a   show more ...  

long-time reader of our Kaspersky Daily blog, you probably already know that the most popular method of doing most anything is hardly ever the safest. File conversion is no different. Lets figure out together what threats are lurking inside free online-converters, and find out how to change file format safely. Why is this important? Because converting a file is not simply a matter of changing its extension — otherwise you could just rename the file from, say, EPUB to MP3. Instead, the converter program must read the file, understand what it contains, convert the data and re-save it in a different format — and each of these stages poses its own threats. Personal data leakage, malware, and other threats The first risk that springs to mind is personal data leakage. Even if youre a who on earth needs my data? kind of person, you should still take care: your vacation snaps may be of no use to anyone, but confidential work documents are a different kettle of fish. When you upload a file to an online converter, you can never be sure that the site wont save a copy of your file for its own purposes. Uploaded data can easily end up in the hands of scammers, and even be used to launch an attack on your company. And if you get fingered as the intruders entry point into the corporate network, your infosec team will hardly be thanking you. If you think this threat applies solely to text or spreadsheet documents, and that a photo of some accounting statement can be safely uploaded and converted to PDF, think again. Optical character recognition (OCR) was invented last century, and now, with AI, even mobile Trojans have learned to extract data of interest to attackers from photos in your smartphone gallery. Another common risk is malware infection. Some dubious converter sites may modify your files or add malicious code to the converted file — and without reliable protection you wont know about it until its too late. The converted files may contain scripts, Trojans, macros, and other nasty stuff weve covered in detail many times. Converter sites may also be phishing, so services asking you to register, enter a load of personal data, and buy a subscription just to convert a file from, say, PDF to DOC, should be eyed with suspicion. If you still plan to use an online converter, look for one that doesnt require registration, and never give it your payment details. How to convert files locally The safest way is to convert files locally; that is, on your own device without using third-party sites. This way, the data is guaranteed to remain confidential — at least until you connect to the internet. You can change a files format using either system tools or popular programs. For text and spreadsheet files, as well as presentations, Microsoft Office can help. It can read many file formats using the File -> Open or File -> Import commands (depending on the version of Office and the operating system), and save them in different formats using the File -> Save as -> Save as type (or File format) or File -> Export commands. The list of available formats is long: from PDF and HTML to the OpenDocument standard. If you dont have access to Microsoft products, you can use the free alternatives LibreOffice and OpenOffice, which also support various text and table file formats. On Windows, text documents can also be converted in a built-in WordPad editor, although it reads far fewer file types. For macOS users, Apples office applications (Pages, Numbers, Keynote) recognize and save documents in many different formats. As for graphics files, things are even simpler. Built-in operating-system tools can help convert images from PNG to JPEG. On Windows, just use this command in Paint: File -> Save as. macOS users dont even need to open any programs — just right-click the image in Finder and select Quick Actions -> Convert Image. The window that opens gives you a choice of format (PNG, JPEG, HEIF) and converted image size. If the above conversion options arent enough — for example, youre handling audio/video files or specific file formats — look for offline tools with a solid reputation as free and open-source software (FOSS). For video (and many audio) formats, check out Handbrake (Windows, macOS, Linux) and Shutter Encoder (Windows, macOS, Linux); for audio, try Audacity, and for images, ImageMagick (Windows, macOS, Linux). Most multimedia converters simply add a graphical interface to FFmpeg, perhaps the top tool for converting multimedia formats. Its only drawback (which for some is a plus) is that it only works from the command line. If youre fine with the command line, FFmpeg is the obvious choice (but, being fine, youve probably got it installed already). Another great choice for command line fans is Pandoc — a versatile converter of text and markup formats. Incidentally, under Extras on the Pandoc website, you can find many third-party utilities for adding a graphical interface to this converter, or embedding it in other editors, services, or even operating systems. All of the above converters are FOSS (free and open-source software), and support at least the most popular operating systems: Windows, macOS, Linux. When choosing other offline converters, make sure that the conversion really does take place locally — many tools simply provide an interface to online converters and still send your source files to a server. This is very easy to check by disconnecting from the internet before converting. If the tool doesnt work, its not an offline converter. How to convert files online as safely as possible Sometimes theres no avoiding online converters — for example, you were sent a file in some highly exotic or outdated format. The next section looks at how to minimize threats when converting files online. Alas, its impossible to guarantee confidentiality when using an online converter. Its creators can write whatever they want in the sites policies, but youll never know what actually happens to your uploaded data. Therefore, the golden rule is: never convert sensitive information online. If you have a Google account (and who doesnt?), you can upload the file you want to convert to Google Drive (most office formats are accepted), right-click, and open it in Google Docs/Sheets/Slides, then download it in a different format. Among the pluses, this method also works on mobile devices — although in this case its more convenient to open the file in the relevant Google editing tool. Another fairly safe way to convert either text or graphics files is Adobes online converter. You can even use it for free on a smartphone — but theres a catch: all uploaded data gets stored on Adobes servers, making this method unsuitable for confidential files. Follow these rules to ensure maximum safety when converting files online: Use reputable online converters. Open the converter site in a new browser window in Incognito mode; this will reduce the amount of information collected about you — but not down to zero. Use a reliable VPN to hide your real IP address from the converter site. Review the online converters privacy policy to understand how your data will be handled. Make sure the service does not collect, store, or transfer information without your consent — or at least claims not to. Check that the files for conversion do not contain confidential information. Scan the converted files with an antivirus. Be very wary if the converter site wants you to download the result in an archive — especially a password-protected one, since this is the most common way to conceal a virus from security software. If you dont have any protection software on your device (heaven forbid), you can scan the downloaded file using our online file checker. Avoid unverified sites that require registration and payment details. Unzip this Lastly, a small life-hack that few people know about. Sometimes you dont need to convert a file to another format at all, but just extract information from it; for example — pull images out of a text document or presentation in their original format. Doing this even with native editors is usually time-consuming and inconvenient — you have to export the images one by one, and the editors might change their size or compress them, deteriorating the picture quality. But theres a way round this. The secret is that files of many formats are nothing more than a compressed folder with subfolders that store pieces of the puzzle: text, images, embedded videos, and the like. And its all zipped. That means that almost all office-suite files are ZIPs with the extension changed to DOCX, PPTX, PAGES, etc. To extract all the contents from this archive, you simply need to rename the file, changing its extension to ZIP, and then unzip it. The result will be a folder with subfolders in which all the ingredients of the original document are neatly laid out. So, if you come across an unknown file format, first of all scan it for viruses with a reliable security solution, then make a copy of it, change the extension to ZIP (in macOS, if the file extension is hidden, you may need to press ?+I to change it), and try to unzip the file — in many cases this will work. Next, have a rummage around in the resulting folder — youll find all sorts of goodies!

consumer protection organizations come together to help educate consumers on how to keep their personal and financial information secure. The event is sponsored by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), and other participating agencies include the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), AARP, and the Better Business Bureau (BBB). This month, take advantage of all that NCPW offers, including access to free tools and information that can help you identify and prevent online scams, fraud, and identity theft. The growing risks to your data During the third quarter of 2024, data breaches exposed more than 422 million records worldwide. Millions of customers were put at risk when their social security numbers, phone numbers, and other sensitive personal information were leaked. As of 2024, the average cost of a data breach in the United States amounted to $9.36 million. In comparison, the global average cost per data breach was $4.88 million. The most common causes of leaks were operating system (OS) flaws and weaknesses on devices like computers and phones. For example, when a user forgets to log out before they leave their computer, it can open the door for cybercriminals to steal information. In fact, it’s estimated that careless users are responsible for about 70% of sensitive data loss. Common attacks to consumer protection Identity theft and fraudSome common types of identity theft and fraud include account takeover fraud, when criminals use stolen personal information such as account numbers, usernames, or passwords to hijack bank accounts, credit cards, and even email and social media accounts. Online shopping scamsAn online shopping scam usually involves a fake online store or app, which appears legitimate and is promoted on social media or other authentic websites. Financial fraudWith the advent of artificial intelligence (AI), financial fraud tactics are growing more sophisticated, and sadly, they often target older people. For example, grandparent scams happen when someone who sounds like a grandchild or other relative contacts an older person and asks them to send money via wire transfer to help get them out of trouble. Scammers use AI to clone voices, which helps them convince you that you’re sending money to a family member who desperately needs your help. Medical identity theftMedical identity theft happens when someone steals or uses your personal information like your name, Social Security number, or Medicare details, to get healthcare in your name. This kind of fraud can disrupt your medical care and cost a lot of money to resolve. Social engineering attacksSocial engineering attacks occur when someone uses a fake persona to gain your trust. They deceive you into divulging confidential information so they can steal your money. Contact is usually made through social media, by phone or in person.
