Established difficult-to-detect persistence mechanisms (e.g., in API).

Hid their activity among legitimate user traffic, and.

Hid their command and control (C2) communications with extensive obfuscation,.

The SVR actors have demonstrated sophisticated defense evasion skills. (See FireEye White Paper: Remediation and Hardening Strategies for Microsoft 365 to Defend Against UNC2452.)Īfter gaining access to cloud environments, the SVR actors established persistence mechanisms for Application Programming Interface (API)-based access and collected and exfiltrated data. This technique enabled SVR actors to add new federated identity providers (iDPs) and thereby move laterally to Azure AD environments.

Modified or added trusted domains in Azure AD.

This technique-referred to as “Golden SAML”-enabled SVR actors to bypass the federated resource provider's MFA and password requirements and thereby move laterally to M365 environments. Stole the Active Directory Federation Service (ADFS) token-signing certificate to forge Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) tokens.In some instances, once inside the network, the SVR actors bypassed multi-factor authentication (MFA) and moved laterally to Microsoft cloud systems by compromising federated identity solutions. Through incident response, CISA determined that, in other instances, the SVR actors obtained initial access by password guessing, password spraying, and exploiting inappropriately secured administrative credentials via remote services.

The SVR actors added malicious code to certain versions of the SolarWinds Orion platform and leveraged it for initial access to select enterprise networks. Russian SVR APT Actor Activity Russian SVR APT Actor Activity For more information on CISA’s response to this activity, refer to /supply-chain-compromise. Note: although the guidance on this webpage is tailored to federal departments and agencies, CISA encourages critical infrastructure and private sector organizations to review and apply it, as appropriate. The SVR actors used privileged access to collect and exfiltrate sensitive data and created backdoors to enable their return. government agencies, critical infrastructure entities, and private sector organizations, in which advanced persistent threat (APT) actors-identified on April 15, 2020, as the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) actors-gained long-term access to organizations’ enterprise networks and moved laterally to Microsoft cloud systems, i.e., Azure Active Directory (AD) and Microsoft 365 (M365) environments. Since December 2020, CISA has been responding to a significant cybersecurity incident affecting networks of multiple U.S. Government attribution of this activity to the SVR. April 15, 2021: Statement from the White House provides U.S.May 7, 2021: CISA Fact Sheet: Russian SVR Activities Related to SolarWinds Compromise lists advisories on the SVR malicious activity.May 14, 2021: The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has updated this page based on public release of detailed eviction guidance for this activity: AR21-134A: Eviction Guidance for Networks Affected by the SolarWinds and Active Directory/M365 Compromise and Supplemental Direction Version 4 to Emergency Directive 21-01: Mitigate SolarWinds Orion Code Compromise.
