A new report on point-of-sale malware presents the most detailed examination of the malicious code behind high-profile attacks against US retailers to date.
Cyphort Labs in-depth look focuses on Target, Home Depot and UPS breaches and involved an analysis of BlackPOS, FrameworkPOS and Backoff malware samples. The researchers concluded that the attackers had acquired a good understanding of their targets, and that defences need fundamental rethink.
Backoff is the most advanced malware strain of the trio, not only because it's designed to attack a broad spectrum of point-of-sale (PoS) systems, but it also has slippery evasion features that make it harder to detect.
FrameworkPOS and BlackPOS, by contrast, resemble off-the-shelf software, tailored specifically for dedicated targets. Backoff, BlackPOS and FrameworkPOS are associated with the security breaches against UPS, Target, and Home Depot, respectively.
Cyphort concludes that the attackers behind the Target and Home Depot moves already had a good idea of the target network they were attacking before bringing PoS into play, a finding supported by conclusions from other researchers that the two retailers were hit through attacks that began against third-party suppliers.
An estimated 56m bank cards were swiped as the result of malware on its tills, Home Depot has admitted. The earlier Target breach resulted in the exposure of 40m credit and debit cards. Both breaches also resulted in the leak of personal information of millions of shoppers.
The POS malware strains analysed by Cyphort have also been used in attacks against other retailers, including Dairy Queen and Neiman Marcus. Cyphort Labs hopes its analysis will put security defenders in a better position to defend against possible follow-up attacks.
"The Target, Home Depot and UPS breaches made headlines because of the size and scope of proprietary information stolen, but also because these companies are household names," said Dr Fengmin Gong, Cyphorts co-founder and chief architect.
"[We] hope the findings will benefit security professionals and researchers so they can better understand specific patterns of behaviour being carried out in these attacks," he added.

Australian security vendor to partner with Nest and others for subscription service
Swann Communications will next year launch a subscription surveillance service that will see the home CCTV vendor move beyond security and into the Internet of Things.
The home monitoring service, set for a US launch at the CES expo in January followed by Australia and Europe in February, will provide a single interface connecting IP-enabled surveillance cameras and other sensors made by Swann with home automation products from third parties.
When a camera detects a possible break in or a smoke detector sniffs a fire, the system sends instant smartphone notifications to customers and/or professional security services, who can then take action to call emergency services if needed.
Swann hopes to create a large hardware ecosystem by partnering with third parties that make non-security home automation devices. At launch, these will include Phillips Hue connected light bulbs, the Nest thermostat and Kwikset door locks. Swann itself is also expanding beyond its bread and butter of CCTV systems to manufacture new kinds of security sensors.
The service will be priced at about US$10 per month for a basic residential monitoring service covering up to four homes. Add-on monthly subscriptions include fire alarm monitoring for $3.50 and gunshot detection for $1.50. Swann also plans to sell an enterprise subscription covering up to 30 locations.
Swann saw embracing the Internet of Things as critical to keeping its business relevant in the future, Swann CTO Geoff Wanless said at a Sydney lunch hosted by Zuora, the vendor providing the billing and finance platform underpinning the subscription service.
If we did not act, someone else would be eating our lunch in two or three years time, said Wanless. In some ways we were forced to act.
Rather than merely peddle security equipment, Swann wants to sell peace of mind as a service, he said.
The smart home market is an increasingly crowded space with many big names in the mix. Apple announced HomeKit earlier this year as a major new feature of iOS 8. The software adds the ability to control smart light bulbs and a variety of other connected gadgets in the home.

Several startups help you create a smart home on the cheap using old smartphones. Tyler Lizenby/CNET
The smart home market is expanding. Dropcam-Nest, SmartThings,Wink and others have captured much of the early attention, but some plucky startups are taking a decidedly more DIY route.
Instead of presenting a polished finished product, these folks want you to use the outdated smartphone or tablet you already have at home (and probably forgot about long ago) to create a functional security camera, smart thermostat and more. Naturally, borrowing key features from an existing product is much less expensive, and the makeshift smart home devices that result even hold their own against some retail-ready devices.
Manything is a free app that turns your old iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch into a security camera. Once you download the app, you're just a few minutes away from having a decent live-streaming device, complete with motion sensing capabilities, email alerts, push notifications and an IFTTT channel. The Manything IFTTT channel makes it possible for you to create recipes for your new security camera and other IFTTT-compatible devices, like Belkin WeMo products and Philips Hue LEDs.
RicoRico completed a successful Kickstarter funding round and will start delivering units in 2015.

MindHelix RicoRico is a cuddly-looking device that happens to have motion, temperature, smoke, carbon monoxide and humidity sensors built into its unassuming puppy frame. You can also stick an old Android or iOS device inside Rico and it quickly transforms into a pretty solid home security system. In addition to Rico, MindHelix also has plans for Belkin WeMo-style smart plugs called Smart Sockets. The startup successfully completed a Kickstarter campaign for Rico and Smart Sockets in October and expects to send out its first production units in November 2015.
