The US Department of Homeland Security issued an alert on Wednesday morning warning that cybercriminals are targeting SAP and Oracle’s enterprise resource planning (ERP) software.

The warning is based on new threat intelligence from the dark web revealing a dramatic rise in cyber attacks on ERP systems thanks to more than 9000 known security vulnerabilities. For this reason, cybercriminals, nation-state actors and hacktivists are expanding their operations and campaigns to target these high-value assets, according to a threat report from vendors Digital Shadows and Onapsis.

Some 17,000 applications have been found to be exposed, the report said, with thousands of organisations across a multitude of verticals and countries directly at risk of espionage, sabotage and financial fraud.
