W3LL runs dry.

Please enjoy this encore of Career Notes. 

Mark Logan, CEO of One Identity, sits down to share his story, explaining how he fit into different roles growing up in different companies. Mark has nearly two decades of C-Suite experience at an array of different organizations, finally landing on his current position as the CEO at One Identity. Sharing his different roles, he also gives a quote from Steve Jobs, saying "it's not what I say yes to, it's what I say no to." He believes that's a key area for his workers because when he is able to make up his mind, his team and his customers have someone they can rely on. Mark says that as a CEO he wants to share the advice of always marching towards your goals, and identifying that different people have different goals because they work in different fields, but that's what makes a company work best. He says "I've found that the more you can delegate, provided you've got the right folks in place the better." We thank Mark for sharing his story.

What does a modern cyberattack really look like from the inside? In this CyberWire-X episode, Dave Bittner speaks with John Anthony Smith, Founder and Chief Security Officer of Fenix24. This conversation takes us step by step as an attacker breaks into a target environment – probing for weaknesses, exploiting entry points, escalating privileges, and moving laterally until they reach their objective. While the attack unfolds, listeners are privy to a behind-the-scenes commentary that reveals the tradecraft: the scripts, misconfigurations, overlooked alerts, and the moments defenders could have stopped the intrusion and, most importantly, prepared for the day through a defense that locks down data and enables a quick and full recovery. This is not a theoretical review or a highlight reel. It's a candid, technical, and eye-opening journey through the full kill chain that will reshape listeners think about detection, incident readiness, and resilience.

Walking through the anatomy of a cyberattack. [CyberWire-X]

Today we are joined by Selena Larson, Threat Researcher from Proofpoint research team and co-host of Only Malware in the Building, talking about their work on "(Don't) TrustConnect: It's a RAT in an RMM hat." Proofpoint uncovered TrustConnect, a malware-as-a-service platform posing as a legitimate remote monitoring and management (RMM) tool, but actually functioning as a remote access trojan (RAT) sold to cybercriminals for $300/month. 

The operation used a fake business website, legitimate-looking certificates, and branded installers (like fake Microsoft Teams or Zoom apps) to trick victims, while providing attackers with full remote control, file transfer, and surveillance capabilities. Although parts of its infrastructure were disrupted, the threat actor quickly rebounded with new variants, highlighting both the resilience of the operation and its deep ties to the broader cybercriminal ecosystem abusing RMM tools.

The research and executive brief can be found here:

CyberAv3ngers unleashed.

In this special edition of CyberWire Daily’s 10th anniversary series, N2K CyberWire's Maria Varmazis and Dave Bittner discuss the biggest breaches over the past 10 years.

The foundational 2014 Sony hack kicks off our conversation, then Maria and Dave highlight:

 the 2015 OPM breach, which exposed sensitive security-clearance data and was attributed to long-term access by China amid outdated government systems and security

 2017’s WannaCry and NotPetya's global disruption and Equifax's ongoing fallout

 the 2020 SolarWinds breach underscored supply-chain risks and raised concerns about potential personal criminal liability for CISOs.

The conversation illustrates two main threat-actor categories—nation-state espionage and financially motivated criminals—and the increasingly blurred lines between them. Join us as we reflect on how the industry and cybercrime have evolved over the past decade.
