We were going to give you #justTheTip on ad blockers for #cyberSecurityAwarenessMonth today, but @da_667 went balls deep on it yesterday so go check out his blog on it:
https://www.totes-legit-notmalware.site/home/cybersecurity-awareness-month
Every October, #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth is dedicated to talking about staying safe both at work and at home.
It's meant to help people understand, identify and make safe decisions when confronted by cyber threats.
I love this song, such a good reminder that #charlatanism is real and not new by any means. Be careful online, lots of cat fishes, it is not just a warning for lonely old people, it applies to admins with root pasword account too #infosec #cybersecurityAwarenessmonth
Infections are everywhere. Get in the habit of scanning files for yucky things, even if they're from trusted sources. Whether it's reimaging your computer, or starting a round of antibiotics, incident response for trusting an infected package is not fun.
🚨 New #LockBit Variant Tagets ESXi and Linux: Critical Infrastructure at Risk.
⚠️ In September 2025, on its sixth anniversary, the LockBit group released LockBit 5.0, a new version of its #ransomware. The new variant introduces stronger obfuscation, flexible configurations, and advanced anti-analysis techniques.
The most alarming development is the expansion to #Linux and #VMware ESXi, signaling a clear focus on server environments and critical infrastructure. Ransomware has shifted from targeting endpoints to directly disrupting core infrastructure.
❗️ A single intrusion can take down dozens of virtual servers, causing organization-wide outages with severe financial and reputational impact.
LockBit 5.0 comes in three builds, each optimized for its target OS with nearly identical functionality.
🚨 VMware ESXi: The most critical new variant, a dedicated encryptor for hypervisors that can simultaneously disable all VMs on a host. Its CLI resembles the other builds but adds VM datastore and config targeting.

📌 Windows: Main variant. Runs with DLL reflection, supports both GUI and console, encrypts local and network files, removes VSS shadow copies, stops services, clears event logs, and drops ransom notes linking to live chat support.

📌 Linux: Console-based, replicates Windows functionality with mount point filters, post-encryption disk wiping, and anti-analysis checks such as geolocation restrictions and build expiry.

👨💻 What can you do now?
✅ Boost visibility: combine EDR/XDR with behavior-based monitoring. Leverage #ANYRUN’s Sandbox and TI Lookup to detect new builds early, enrich detection rules, and reduce MTTR by up to 21 minutes.
✅ Harden access: enforce MFA for vCenter, restrict direct internet access to ESXi hosts, and route connections through VPN.
✅ Ensure resilience: keep offline backups and test recovery regularly.
