The Brutal Reality of Brute Force Attacks And How To<br />

Defend Against Them<br />

By John Nowotny, Customer Success Engineer, Exabeam<br />

Russian cyberattacks have seemingly become the new normal with the recent spate of high-profile events<br />

at SolarWinds, Colonial Pipeline and Kaseya putting U.S. government officials and private sector<br />

businesses on high alert.<br />

In July, the National Security Agency (NSA), together with partner agencies from the U.S. and the U.K.,<br />

sounded yet another alarm about a global and likely ongoing “brute-<strong>for</strong>ce” cyber campaign by the Russian<br />

military intelligence agency, the GRU. The NSA advisory details the malicious group’s tactics <strong>for</strong> targeting<br />

hundreds of U.S. and <strong>for</strong>eign entities and the steps that organizations should take to mitigate their risk.<br />

Underscoring the gravity of what the White House perceives as an escalating threat to national security,<br />

President Joe Biden put Russian President Vladimir Putin on notice, suggesting that the U.S. will retaliate<br />

if Moscow fails to crack down on Russia-based cybercrime groups that target American institutions.<br />
