Viasat shares details on KA-SAT satellite service cyberattack

Mar, 30, 2023 Hi-network.com

The incident report for the 24 February  hack of Viasat's satellite internet service was released by Viasat. The attackers used a VPN misconfiguration to gain access to the KA-SAT network's trusted management segment, then moved laterally and executed commands to prevent the modems from connecting to the network.

According to SentinelOne, hackers used a data wiper malware called AcidRain to accomplish this. SentinelOne found similarities between AcidRain and VPNFilter with a medium level of confidence; the FBI attributed VPNFilter to Russia in 2018.
