InfoSecBulletin Cybersecurity for mankind
As the Eid holidays near, cybercriminals may try to take advantage of weakened security during this time. The CTI unit of BGD e-GOV CIRT has identified several web-based attacks, especially during non-office hours and holidays. Common attack methods include SSH brute force, SQL injection, PHP CGI-bin exploits, and directory traversal attacks, all seeking unauthorized access.
In the past week, several cyberattacks targeting Bangladesh have been reported. Notably, 26,887 IP addresses were found to have exposed vulnerabilities, raising the risk of exploitation.

Restrict connections from public or unsecured networks.
Prohibit outdated or unpatched software.
Ensure secure backups for critical data and prepare for disaster recovery.
Limit access, especially during holidays, and disable unused or temporary accounts.
