    Fog ransomware was seen using Syteca, a legitimate employee monitoring tool, to log keys and grab passwordsIt also used open-source tools for payload dropping and file exfiltrationThe attack was "atypical", researchers claimFog ransomware operators have expanded their arsenal to include legitimate and open source tools. This is, most likely, to avoid being detected before deploying the encryptor.Security researchers from Symantec were recently brought in to investigate a Fog ransomware infection, and determined the hackers used Syteca, a legitimate employee monitoring tool, during the attack.This program, previously known as Ekran, records screen activity and keystrokes, and hasn’t been seen abused in attacks before now."Several" accounts compromisedBy logging keystrokes and tracking passwords, the attackers were able to access additional systems, map out the network, and then successfully deploy the encryptor.To drop Syteca, Fog used Stowaway, an open-source, multi-hop proxy tool designed for security researchers and pentesters to route traffic through multiple intermediary nodes into restricted or internal networks.After dropping the payload, the attackers used SMBExec, another open-source post-exploitation tool, to execute it over the Server Message Block protocol (SMB).Lastly, Fog used GC2, an open source post-exploitation backdoor that leverages Google Sheets and SharePoint for command-and-control (C2) and data exfiltration. Just like Syteca, this one is rarely seen abused in attacks, although BleepingComputer claims the Chinese state-sponsored actor APT41 have been seen using it sometimes.“The toolset deployed by the attackers is quite atypical for a ransomware attack,” Symantec said in its report.“The Syteca client and GC2 tool are not tools we have seen deployed in ransomware attacks before, while the Stowaway proxy tool and Adap2x C2 Agent Beacon are also unusual tools to see being used in a ransomware attack,” they added.Fog ransomware first emerged in April 2024, and its first attacks were spotted a month later. Since then, the group made a name for itself, claiming notable victims such as the Belgium-based semiconductor company Melexis, European meteorological organization EUMETSAT, FHNW University (a major Swiss educational institution), and Ultra Tune (an Australian automotive service franchise).In early attacks, the group used compromised VPN credentials to access victims’ networks - after which, they used “pass-the-hash” attacks to elevate privileges, disable antivirus products, and encrypt all files.Via BleepingComputerYou might also likeRansomware hackers demand victims justify their jobs, or pay upTake a look at our guide to the best authenticator appWe've rounded up the best password managers

    The Document Foundation, which makes LibreOffice, is the latest to jump on the anti-Windows 11 bandwagonThe organization argues that Windows 10 users should switch to LinuxIt outlines the strengths of Linux, which include being free, open, and transparentMore than a few big players on the Linux side of the fence are now weighing in with the anti-Microsoft sentiment, and another has just joined this club: The Document Foundation (TDF).What is that, exactly? TDF is the creator of LibreOffice, an alternative to Microsoft Office for Linux (and other platforms), and the organization has a multi-pronged argument to try and persuade Windows 10 holdouts to try a Linux distro rather than migrating to Windows 11. (And of course, some folks can’t upgrade to the latter, anyway, due to Windows 11’s heftier system requirements).As Neowin flagged up, TDF has a blog post entitled: “The end of Windows 10 is approaching, so it’s time to consider Linux and LibreOffice.”That’s straight to the point, certainly, and TDF also makes it clear that it’s supporting the broader ‘End of 10’ project, also urging those facing the end of Windows 10 (in October 2025) to switch to Linux.TDF observes: “The countdown has begun. On 14 October 2025, Microsoft will end support for Windows 10 … The good news? You don’t have to follow Microsoft’s upgrade path [to Windows 11]. There is a better option that puts control back in the hands of users, institutions, and public bodies: Linux and LibreOffice. Together, these two programmes offer a powerful, privacy-friendly and future-proof alternative to the Windows + Microsoft 365 ecosystem.”The organization insists that sticking with Windows 11 limits the consumer in terms of fostering a continued dependence on Microsoft, and its “forcing” of the use of its various services, cloud integration (OneDrive) and of course the Microsoft account.TDF points out that Microsoft is trying to drum up subscriptions (meaning Microsoft 365, for those who use Office – and indeed OneDrive), and reduce “control over how your computer works and how your data is managed.” That latter potshot is aimed at how Microsoft’s system of telemetry works, piping data from your Windows PC back to its servers (though how much, and what kind of data, depends on your settings).The final shot echoes a lot of other worries out there: “Furthermore, new hardware requirements will render millions of perfectly good PCs obsolete.”And that’s one of the main beefs when it comes to the Windows 11 upgrade. It’s not necessarily that people don’t want the newer OS – though some don’t – it’s just that due to security measures imposed with Windows 11 which rule out older CPUs (and PCs without TPM 2.0, a security feature), a lot of Windows 10 PCs simply can’t have it.So, get Linux instead is the answer, and in the case of this particular sub-campaign, grab LibreOffice as well to replace Word, Excel and PowerPoint.TDF emphasizes the free and open nature of both Linux and LibreOffice, and how they are overseen by foundations, rather than a company looking to turn a profit. And also that older Windows 10 PCs will have no trouble running a Linux distro (and there’s a wide choice of different flavors of desktop OS to pick from, of course).Analysis: Free, open and trustworthy – but too steep a hill to climb for some?(Image credit: MAYA LAB / Shutterstock)There’s an increasing amount of momentum getting behind the ‘switch from Windows 10 to Linux’ campaign. Remember that recently, KDE (which makes a Linux desktop environment called Plasma) argued that Microsoft is guilty of enforcing a kind of ‘tech extortion’ on Windows 10 users, and while as I noted at the time, that’s extreme language being used, I get where the sentiment is coming from.TDF is to some extent picking up that ‘extortion’ theme here, particularly when it talks about Microsoft trying to lock folks into its various services. And it’s a fair observation in some ways: the Microsoft Account is very much being pushed by the software giant, and there’s persistent badgering in Windows 11 to use, say, OneDrive. Although this is nudging and veiled advertising more than it’s ‘forcing’ anything on anyone, but granted, it’s still annoying to see this, and the various ads (some of them outright adverts) Microsoft peddles via Windows – a paid-for OS.As TDF underlines, Microsoft is looking to make a profit, where Linux is free, open, transparent, and therefore more trustworthy at a fundamental level.I won’t retread the ground that I’ve already been over in my recent stories regarding the arguments of why Linux might be a tricky proposition for a good number of Windows 10 users, but I need to again point out some of the downsides in the interests of balance here.The main issue being that in the case of less tech-savvy users, going from Windows 10 to Linux is quite an upheaval. There’s a whole new interface and way of working to learn, and there are bound to be apps that people have purchased that aren’t compatible with Linux, or games that won’t work properly (certainly those online games with anti-cheat protection).In its blog post, TDF advises that: “Replacing Windows and Microsoft Office is not as difficult as it seems, either at an individual or corporate level.”Then it suggests that a first step towards making the switch from Windows 10 to Linux is: “Start by testing Linux and LibreOffice on a second partition of your PC (for individuals) or in less critical departments (for companies).”This is rather a case of ‘nail, meet hammerhead’ in terms of worries about less tech-savvy users making a transition like this to a whole new OS. There are doubtless massed ranks of Windows 10 users out there who wouldn’t have a clue how to set up Linux by using a partition on their drive. And yes, you can find out how – and the Linux community is, in general, undeniably super-helpful (as TDF touches on elsewhere) – but still, I think how far out of the comfort zone this is for a lot of PC owners is being underestimated here.The crux in many ways is that Linux is more of an enthusiast proposition by its very nature – and that’s part of what makes it great, and why the community is tightknit and so supportive. But for the average Windows 10 user, the migration to Linux may simply appear to be too steep an ascent – and the initial teething problems they may face, particularly with hardware or software compatibility, may make the climb feel perilously close to vertical.Those who are mulling a move to Linux might want to peruse TechRadar’s roundup of the best Linux distro for beginners, or the distros which are similar to Windows, and so could help you feel more immediately at home.You might also like...Windows 11 is getting some big upgrades to tackle dreaded boot failures – and help novices set up their new PCBeen hiding from Windows 11 24H2 due to the fuss about all the bugs?

    In Port-au-Prince, ten years after Haiti's devastating earthquake, basic medical care can be almost impossible to find. But St. Boniface Hospital, in Fond-des-Blancs, has become a leading beacon for Haitian hope. For more than two million people on the island's southern peninsula, this is the only place to get an emergency C-section, and the only available neonatal intensive care unit. Jeff Glor visits to find out what makes this place work, when so many others have failed. For more information about Health Equity International, which oversees St. Boniface, go to healthequityintl.org.

    It's rare that the number of new movies outweighs their new TV brethren in our weekly streaming round-ups.That's the case this time, though. There are four – that's right, four! – new films we recommend watching on the world's best streaming services this weekend (June 13 to 15). Admittedly, some of them aren't great but, hey, you can have a laugh with and/or mock them to your heart's content if nothing else.For the small-screen fans among you, there are a couple of new TV show offerings as well. So, don't worry, we haven't left you out! Here, then, is what you'll want to catch before next Monday arrives. – Tom Power, senior entertainment reporterSnow White (Disney+)Snow White is not the fairest Disney movie of them all. Not only did it have a disappointing box office run, its terrible 39% Rotten Tomatoes critics score suggests it's not worth investing in at home, either.Still, while it misses out on being part of our best Disney+ movies round-up, it's now available to watch at home. There are a lot of key differences from the original here, including Snow White's namesake and love interest, which has been met with mixed reviews.If you'd rather watch the original Oscar-winning 1937 movie, that's also streaming on Disney+ alongside plenty of the classics. Either way, you can get your fairytale fix this weekend. – Lucy Buglass, senior entertainment writerWatch Snow White on Disney+Fubar season 2 (Netflix)He's back – again. Arnold Schwarzenegger's surprise Netflix TV hit Fubar has returned for its second season. After saving her daughter and fellow CIA operative last time around, Arnie's character Luke Brenner is forced to postpone his retirement once more to tackle a new threat. The villain in question? None other than Luke's former flame Greta (played by The Matrix icon Carrie-Anne Moss), which complicates matters a teeny tiny bit.Fubar isn't part of our best Netflix shows round-up right now, but only because we regularly rotate series in and out of it. If Fubar season 2 is as big of a hit as its forebear, don't be shocked if it returns to said guide in explosive fashion. – TPWatch Fubar season 2 on NetflixDeep Cover (Prime Video)The plot for one of June's new Prime Video movies Deep Cover sounds intriguing. It's about an improv comedy teacher played by Bryce Dallas Howard (Jurassic World: Dominion) who recruits two of her students – Nick Mohammed (Ted Lasso) and Orlando Bloom (The Lord of the Rings; Pirates of the Caribbean) – to help her impersonate dangerous criminals for an undercover cop.If that sounds familiar, it’s probably because two of the British crime-comedy caper’s screenwriters (Colin Trevorrow and Derek Connolly) based theis Amazon film's concept on real-life New York City cops who previously used actors as decoys.Following its world premiere at SXSW London Screen Festival earlier this month, this Prime Video movie has been received well by critics (based on its Rotten Tomatoes score, anyway). That should be enough to land it a spot on our best Prime Video movies guide, then. – Amelia Schwanke, senior entertainment editor Watch Deep Cover on Prime VideoEcho Valley (Apple TV+)Julianne Moore recently stunned me in Sirens, one of the best Netflix shows, and now she's at the helm of a new Apple TV+ movie Echo Valley.There's a seriously impressive cast here, including Euphoria's Sydney Sweeney, Fallout's Kyle MacLachlan, and Killing Eve's Fiona Shaw. The ensemble is so talented, in fact, I'm going to watch it in spite of its 59% critical rating on Rotten Tomatoes.That'll prevent it from joining our best Apple TV+ movies list, but its premise – Moore plays a mom who helps her troubled daughter (Sweeney) cover up a crime – is one that appeals to me. – LBWatch Echo Valley on Apple TV+Cleaner (Max)Two British action flicks in the same week? Aren’t we lucky. Directed by Martin Campbell (Casino Royale; Golden Eye), this film, which has debuted on Max, has got a lot of great talent behind it.Daisy Ridley (Star Wars; Young Woman and the Sea) stars as an soldier-turned-window cleaner (yes, you read that right), who dusts off her old combat skills to single-handedly save a group of hostages from a radical group of activists that have taken over an energy juggernaut’s gala.I know I’m not alone in thinking that this sounds like Die Hard. Countless critics have said as much since reviewing the film (it was released in theaters in the US earlier this year). However, while it follows a tried-and-tested story, its mixed reviews mean it won't make the cut for our best Max movies guide. – ASWatch Cleaner on MaxTitan: The Oceangate Disaster (Netflix)I watched Titan: The OceanGate Disaster very intently and I urge everyone to do the same this weekend. I understand many might be concerned it's just another shocking documentary, but it has a lot of important insights into what actually went wrong, including from those involved in its development.For the uninitiated: in 2023, the submersible vessel known as Titan imploded, resulting in the deaths of all five passengers, including OceanGate's former CEO, Stockton Rush.This well made and, dare I say, essential documentary criticizes how many people's concerns were ignored in the build up to Titan's journey to the Titanic wreckage, and is an important reminder that companies should pay attention to the experts they employ. – LBWatch Titan: The Oceangate Disaster on NetflixRomcon: Who the F**k is Jason Porter? (Prime Video)Our second new documentary pick of the week is a true crime series about the dark side of dating.Romcon: Who the F**k is Jason Porter? is a tell-all from the victims of a prolific dating scammer based in Toronto.
