Actionable Threat Intelligence Available for Sunburst Cyber Attacks on SolarWinds

On Dec. 13, FireEye published a detailed analysis about the attack carried out against SolarWinds, which appears to have compromised its Orion IT monitoring and management platform to spread the Sunburst Backdoor malware. As part of the attack, which started in March, the Orion platform started sending out the digitally-signed trojanized malware via regular updates. According to SolarWinds, the compromised update may have been installed by fewer than 18,000 of its customers, including many U.S. federal agencies and Fortune 500 firms that use Orion to monitor the health of their IT networks. In a related blog post, FireEye also announced that a highly sophisticated state-sponsored adversary penetrated its network and stole FireEye Red Team tools used to test customers’ security.


In response to the attacks, Anomali has collected, curated, and distributed clear and concise open-source intelligence (OSINT) to help organizations determine if they have been impacted. Two key resources released include a SolarWinds Breach Threat Bulletin and a FireEye Red Team Tools Breach Threat Bulletin. These continually updated resources, for use inside Anomali ThreatStream, include threat analysis, signature threat models, and over 2,000 operationalized indicators of compromise (IOCs) for automated distribution to security controls. Both are available now to Anomali’s 1,500 customers.
