ConcealBrowse: Shielding IT Solutions from Stealthy Threats

/in /by

ConcealBrowse: A Game-Changer for IT Solutions

In the rapidly evolving landscape of IT, staying ahead of threats is paramount. This imperative led to the adoption of ConcealBrowse, an advanced cybersecurity tool. For one IT solution in particular, this investment turned out to be not just prudent but crucial.

Identifying the Threat: The Power of IOCs

Conceal analysts recently zeroed in on a suspicious domain, abukss[.]com, which was isolated by ConcealBrowse on one of the system’s endpoints. The subsequent investigation led to a concerning revelation.

The domain in question was found to be communicating with multiple malicious PDF files. Since its registration on March 15, it has reportedly interacted with a staggering 22 malicious PDFs and one malignant RAR file. Even more intriguing, it was linked to an older domain, emailgoal[.]com, indicating a potential long-standing attack chain.

Through rigorous analysis, several Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) associated with the domain were identified:

DOMAIN: abukss[.]com
DOMAIN: emailgoal[.]com
SHA256 Hashes:
000b57b2e7c…4e3f933ac1f9fbf92aaa852a0c792420
003011e3…439bacca148ca5a78bc52929d772fac

Digging Deeper: The Analysis

Upon closer inspection, the discovery of abukss[.]com’s interactions with a myriad of malicious files underscored the importance of continuous threat intelligence. These findings emphasize the domain’s role as a potential distribution hub for malware.

Furthermore, its association with emailgoal[.]com, a domain with its own dubious track record, hinted at a more extensive, coordinated effort by cyber adversaries. The identified SHA256 hashes serve as unique fingerprints of malicious files, further fortifying the case against the domain.

ConcealBrowse’s Isolation Mechanism: A Robust Defense

But how does ConcealBrowse effectively counter such threats? The answer lies in its isolation capability.

When ConcealBrowse identifies a potential cyber threat, it ensures that the malicious site is accessed within a remote, isolated environment. This means that any malicious downloads initiated by the website are instantly blocked. Furthermore, should there be any harmful code present on the site, it gets executed within this sandboxed environment, leaving the user’s actual device untouched and uncompromised.

The Upshot: A Bullet Dodged

Thanks to ConcealBrowse, the IT solution in question remained shielded from a potentially disastrous malware intrusion. By detecting, analyzing, and isolating the threat, the tool prevented what could have been a significant breach.

In conclusion, this stands as a testament to the effectiveness of ConcealBrowse in protecting systems against stealthy and sophisticated cyber threats. The world of IT solutions is rife with potential vulnerabilities, but with tools like ConcealBrowse in the arsenal, these vulnerabilities can be robustly guarded against.

Conceal Unveils Our AI Engine to Counter Novel Threats, Phishing, and Credential Theft Vectors at the Browser

Conceal Unveils SherpaAI Engine to Counter Novel Threats, Phishing, and Credential Theft Vectors at the Browser

August 9, 2023, 09:00 AM Eastern Daylight Time

AUGUSTA, Ga.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Conceal, the pioneer in defending against web-based attacks, today introduced the ConcealSherpaAI engine, the first secure browser extension powered by AI to identify potentially harmful webpages autonomously. By examining and evaluating metadata signals on a webpage, ConcealSherpaAI determines whether to quarantine, block, or permit access. The embedded artificial intelligence adjusts the weights of these signals while identifying new ones, allowing it to keep pace with threat actors who continually revise their tactics to evade standard security solutions.

ConcealSherpaAI’s learning model continually adds signals as it identifies them, utilizing AI not only to recognize a compromise but also to understand how threat actors’ tactics are changing and to adjust decisions accordingly. The consistent flow of feedback from users, admins, and threat feeds will not only expedite learning but validate it in real-time. A key feature of ConcealSherpaAI is its ability to address preload switching, a countermeasure employed by attackers to bypass page checks. This capability allows the solution to stay ahead of malicious actors, ensuring optimal user protection.

“Unlike other forms of preventive endpoint protection, ConcealSherpaAI’s engine preempts suspicious sites while allowing benign URLs to open with zero latency, offering next-level protection for end-users without disrupting their daily workflow,” said Gordon Lawson, CEO of Conceal. “The ConcealSherpaAI engine is not dependent on traditional threat feeds but continually gets smarter through Conceal’s organic threat analysis and our expanding customer base. ConcealBrowse powered by ConcealSherpaAI operates across all endpoint applications, not just email, and provides comprehensive protection from novel malware without affecting critical applications. Moreover, we continue to rapidly expand our ecosystem of security tool integrations for Conceal telemetry to be an additive force multiplier within any organization’s security architecture.”

“Having been recognized as the Specialist Security Reseller of the Year for the last few years, we pride ourselves in seeking the best solutions and architectural strategies for our customers to make them more secure,” said Jonathan Lassman, Founder and Director of NGS UK. “ConcealBrowse, powered by the ConcealSherpaAI engine, is a game changer for our clients, as we have found that current technologies protecting users from Phishing Attacks are not 100% effective and never will be. By deploying ConcealBrowse, we are taking the pressure off the user not to click malicious links or give away credentials because now they are protected even if they do. Conceal’s lightweight deployment, affordability, and seamless integration with the Microsoft security stack allow our clients to leverage current investments while dramatically improving their overall cyber resilience.”

About Conceal

ConcealBrowse utilizes an intelligence engine operating at machine speed with virtually zero latency to dynamically and transparently analyze website contents and URLs, isolating suspicious and risky websites to a cloud-based environment. Conceal empowers organizations to protect users from malware and ransomware at the edge, using Zero Trust technology to defend against sophisticated cyber threats. Conceal is trusted globally by organizations of all sizes to ensure their users and IT operations remain secure, anonymous, and isolated from attacks.
