Criminals are using ARTEX, a tool first built to help security teams test their own systems, to break into websites with little human help. In the cases studied, the automated agents stole over 190,000 gaming logins and hundreds of Apple app-signing certificates, though only three of those certificates still worked.

What to do

  1. Find and rotate any exposed secrets, including passwords, keys and certificates.
  2. Remove hardcoded credentials from front-end and JavaScript code.
  3. Require authentication on every API endpoint.
  4. Test internet-facing systems and watch for sudden bursts of requests.
