Actionable Guidance on Hafnium Cyber Attacks

A nation-state threat group known as ‘Hafnium’ is targeting entities in the United States across a number of industry sectors, including infectious disease researchers, law firms, higher education institutions, defense contractors, policy think tanks, and NGOs.

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency released an emergency directive regarding this targeted attack, which includes background information and required actions.

Given the significant risk potential in this evolving situation, FTI Cybersecurity encourages all clients to take a proactive stance in addressing this threat, and all entities that currently use this product on-premise or in a hybrid model should assume they may have been breached.
