FBI ISSUES WARNING – DEEPFAKES AND STOLEN PII UTILIZED TO APPLY FOR REMOTE WORK
POSITIONS



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PublishedJune 30, 2022
AuthorRobert MacDonald


Today (June 28, 0222), the FBI issued a warning stating that scammers may be
trying to score jobs at companies to access customer or financial data,
corporate IT databases, and/or proprietary information. It goes on to state that
there has been an increase in complaints reporting the use of deepfakes and
stolen Personally Identifiable Information data (PII) to apply for various
remote work and work-at-home positions. 

This is a solvable problem, beginning with strong identity verification during
the hiring process. Unfortunately, while identity verification is a standard
process, current practices have failed to keep up with fraudsters. 


CONTRACTOR FRAUD AND THE RISE OF REMOTE WORK

Many organizations require the use of contractors, known as third parties.
Managing these non-employees through the HR system, the authoritative identity
source for their IT ecosystem, can be burdensome. In addition, third-party
individuals often require access to organizational resources such as shared
tools, applications, or data sets to provide critical services. 

The issue is that this access is usually for a limited period. Third parties
present challenges and bring additional risks, such as ensuring that access
rights and permissions are managed correctly and, when required, deprovisioned
quickly. With the rise of remote work during the COVID-19 pandemic, these
concerns have only been exacerbated

Many companies assume that virtually checking a photo of a new contractor’s
driver’s license and passport ensures that they are always the person logging in
and working from home every day. Unfortunately, this isn’t necessarily the case.
The increase in remote work in the last year has made it easier for fraudsters
to attack your organization. 


HOW DOES CONTRACTOR FRAUD HAPPEN?

Let’s look at how identity fraud happens in an organization: When new
contractors get hired, they receive access to numerous company resources like
email and Slack. To gain access to these resources, they will likely use an
active directory username and password and a 2FA tool.

What happens if this contractor outsources their work? The employee will provide
a third-party outsourcer with usernames, passwords, and 2FA codes. It’s been
done before, and with today’s collaboration technologies like Whatsapp and
Slack, it can be done in seconds. This could be detrimental to an organization
if this person found someone cheaper to do their work or got paid by a third
party to let them into the organization to steal intellectual property. 

Your company likely did a thorough background check of your employees and
contractors. However, you did not do a background check on the subcontractor.
This means that this individual could have a questionable background that is not
suitable to work at your company. Your company resources and knowledge are
vulnerable to the subcontractor.


HOW DOES 1KOSMOS IMPROVE THIRD-PARTY ACCESS GOVERNANCE?

The reality is that nearly all organizations have a variety of these third-party
individuals who need access to infrastructure, applications, and data. 1Kosmos
improves the security of third-party access with our distributed digital
identity platform that is FIDO2, NIST, and PAD2 certified. 

The benefit of onboarding contractors with 1Kosmos BlockID is ensuring the
highest degree of identity assurance in a virtual environment, eliminating
fraudulent activities. Contractors who are bound to their proofed identity with
1Kosmos, they have identity-based biometric authentication and a passwordless
experience. In practice, contractors can utilize their secure mobile device for
physical or logical authentication and step-up authentication required for
privileged access. As a result, each access event is associated with a real,
verified identity. Overall, organizations will eliminate the risk of contractor
fraud and extra security exposures contractors introduce.

Are you interested in learning more? I invite you to check out a webinar where
we covered this very issue “Identity-Based Authentication and The Journey to
Passwordless” where Edward Amoroso and Mike Engle discussed third-party access
management and contractor fraud prevention.

Additionally, this whitepaper covers our integration with Saviynt Third Party
Access Governance. The combination of technologies ensures that when a
contractor authenticates into the organization, you will have a high assurance
that it is the contractor you hired, not someone else working on their behalf or
a hacker!

Accessibility StatementCompliance status

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone
and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the broadest
possible audience, regardless of ability.

To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web
Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA
level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people
with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us
ensure that the website is accessible to blind people, people with motor
impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.

This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as
accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that
allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user
interface) and design it to their personal needs.

Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the
background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application
remediates the website’s HTML, adapts its functionality and behavior for
screen-readers used by blind users, and for keyboard functions used by
individuals with motor impairments.

If you wish to contact the website’s owner please use the website's form

Screen-reader and keyboard navigation

Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet
Applications) technique, alongside various behavioral changes, to ensure blind
users visiting with screen-readers can read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s
functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they
immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can
browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of
the most important screen-reader requirements:

 1. Screen-reader optimization: we run a process that learns the website’s
    components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when
    updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with
    meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide
    accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons,
    search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs;
    element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. 
    
    Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images. It
    provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based
    description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not
    described. It will also extract texts embedded within the image using an OCR
    (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader
    adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard
    combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn
    the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
    
    These adjustments are compatible with popular screen readers such as JAWS,
    NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack.
    
    
 2. Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the
    website’s HTML and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the
    website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the
    website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow
    keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key,
    navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill
    them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.
    
    Additionally, keyboard users will find content-skip menus available at any
    time by clicking Alt+2, or as the first element of the site while navigating
    with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by
    moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, not allowing
    the focus to drift outside.
    
    Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F”
    (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.

systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share, including Google
Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS, and NVDA

Notes, comments, and feedback

Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their
needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are
in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological
solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our
accessibility, adding, updating, improving its options and features, and
developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal
level of accessibility following technological advancements. If you wish to
