Recently, Trend and other private entities contributed to INTERPOL\u2019s Operation Synergia, an operation that focuses on three threat types (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/vinfo\/us\/security\/definition\/Ransomware\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ransomware<\/a>, banking trojans, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/vinfo\/us\/security\/definition\/Phishing\">phishing<\/a>) and took down 1,300 command-and-control (C&C) servers ranging from various botnet and malware connections, phishing servers, and ransomware attacks. In this global operation, 55 member countries participated which resulted in the takedown of 70% of the identified servers.<\/p>\n<p>Trend was able to share malicious IP addresses in these three categories. The threat intelligence provided by Trend contributed to 63 INTERPOL Cyber Activity Reports (Figure 1) and, over the course of operation, led to 30 house searches and the identification of 70 suspects facilitating the phishing, malware, or ransomware activity.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"image\" readability=\"6\">\n<figure class=\"image-figure\" readability=\"2\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/content\/dam\/trendmicro\/global\/en\/research\/24\/b\/trend-micro-and-interpol-join-forces-again-for-operation-synergia\/OperationSynergiaFig1.jpg\" alt=\"Figure 1.

Detecting these malicious IP addresses and providing it to law enforcement agencies (LEAs) like INTERPOL is a significant contribution in combatting notorious crimes like ransomware attacks, which have been evolving into a stronger and worse cyberthreat.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"image\" readability=\"6\">\n<figure class=\"image-figure\" readability=\"2\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/content\/dam\/trendmicro\/global\/en\/research\/24\/b\/trend-micro-and-interpol-join-forces-again-for-operation-synergia\/OperationSynergiaFig2.jpg\" alt=\"Figure 2.

Many of these pieces of malware acted as ransomware enablers or as a means of initial access, making it crucial to intercept them to prevent ransomware infections. The malware types most used to connect with the servers include stealers, trojan stealers, remote access trojans (RATs), downloaders, and botnets (Figure 3).<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"image\" readability=\"6\">\n<figure class=\"image-figure\" readability=\"2\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/content\/dam\/trendmicro\/global\/en\/research\/24\/b\/trend-micro-and-interpol-join-forces-again-for-operation-synergia\/OperationSynergiaFig3.jpg\" alt=\"Figure 3.

Additionally, among the commonly used stealers were ArkeiStealer, Azorult, Raccoon, and Stealc.<\/p>\n<p><b>Cobalt Strike<\/b><br \/>The infamous Cobalt Strike was one of the notable malware instances observed in the infrastructures related to the banking trojans, ransomware, and phishing activity that Trend shared with INTERPOL for Operation Synergia. While Cobalt Strike is primarily utilized by cybersecurity professionals and red teams for legitimate security testing purposes, it has been exploited by cybercriminals for lateral movement between machines and for C&C communication. Cobalt Strike has been employed by several notorious ransomware families, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/vinfo\/us\/security\/news\/ransomware-spotlight\/ransomware-spotlight-blackbasta\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Black Basta<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/vinfo\/us\/security\/news\/ransomware-spotlight\/ransomware-spotlight-blackcat\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BlackCat<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/vinfo\/us\/security\/news\/ransomware-spotlight\/ransomware-spotlight-royal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Royal<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/en_us\/research\/23\/h\/an-overview-of-the-new-rhysida-ransomware.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rhysida<\/a> (Figure 4).<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"image\" readability=\"6\">\n<figure class=\"image-figure\" readability=\"2\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/content\/dam\/trendmicro\/global\/en\/research\/24\/b\/trend-micro-and-interpol-join-forces-again-for-operation-synergia\/OperationSynergiaFig4.jpg\" alt=\"Figure 4.

AsyncRAT enables attackers to remotely access and control compromised systems, facilitating various malicious activities including data theft, surveillance, and the execution of additional malware. In December 2023, researchers from Trend\u2019s Managed XDR team shared <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/en_us\/research\/23\/l\/analyzing-asyncrat-code-injection-into-aspnetcompiler-exe.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">their findings<\/a> on various cases involving AsyncRAT.

Trend\u2019s partnership with this LEA in dismantling extensive botnet servers, leading to the widespread disruption of cybercriminal activities and the apprehension of several threat actors, is a testament to the success of this global collaboration, akin to that of Trend\u2019s previous involvement in the INTERPOL-led <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/en_us\/research\/23\/h\/african-cybercrime-networks.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Africa Cyber Surge I and II operations<\/a> in the focus region of Africa.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"image\" readability=\"6\">\n<figure class=\"image-figure\" readability=\"2\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/content\/dam\/trendmicro\/global\/en\/research\/24\/b\/trend-micro-and-interpol-join-forces-again-for-operation-synergia\/OperationSynergiaFig7.jpg\" alt=\"Figure 7.

Although some of these servers did not go through the operation (the inclusion of such is dependent on the participating member countries involved in Operation Synergia), sharing this telemetry from Trend empowers LEAs to coordinate with member countries and seek their help in combating cybercrime.<\/p>\n<h4>Partnership with INTERPOL<\/h4>\n<p>Trend has a long and successful history of cooperation with law enforcement agencies across the globe. Operations that involve law enforcement and private sector cooperation allow security organizations and industry experts to provide their skills, resources, and years of experience to aid in the investigation and apprehension of malicious actors. As cybercrime operations are evolving and expanding \u2014 especially the relentless deployment of spam run campaigns \u2014 LEA operations are adjusting as well. They strategize and embrace what we call “smart operation,” as it casts wider net for the infrastructure of cybercriminals and turns it into actionable intelligence with execution of operation in a short span of time, truly a remarkable one.<\/p>\n<p>Trend\u2019s partnership with INTERPOL has led to many successful takedowns over the years, like the dismantling of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/en_us\/research\/23\/i\/revisiting-16shop-phishing-kit-trend-interpol-partnership.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the 16shop phishing kit<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/en_us\/research\/23\/h\/african-cybercrime-networks.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">disruption of African cybercrime networks under Africa Cyber Surge I and II<\/a> last year, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/en_us\/research\/22\/f\/trend-micro-partners-with-interpol-and-nigeria-efcc-for-operatio.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">arrests of business email compromise (BEC) actors under Operation Killer Bee<\/a> in 2022, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/en_us\/research\/21\/k\/global-operations-lead-to-arrests-of-alleged-members-of-gandcrab.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">arrests of REvil and Cl0p members for Operation Cyclone<\/a> in 2021.
