The Latest in IT Security

More NACHA themed spam this morning that redirects victims through a hacked legitimate site to a malware laden page, this time hosted on evrymonthnighttry.com or glasseseverydaynow.com.

These sites are hosted on 46.183.217.119 (Dataclub, Latvia). I can’t see anything at all of value in 46.183.216.0/21 so blocking access to all of that range might be prudent.

It also attempts to load an exploit from a site called bbb-complains.org which is not resolving at present.

A couple of example emails:
