BYOD | Mobile Bots Grow 1,000% in 2013

The number of bad bots has grown exponentially in recent years, driving poor internet performance for individuals and the loss of control over connected devices; wholesale theft of online intellectual property, content and data; unnecessarily high bandwidth fees; and compromised websites that are otherwise key to mission-critical functions. In fact, bad bots almost doubled as a percentage of all web traffic over the course of 2013, from 12.25% to 23.6%. And the number of mobile bots is up a staggering 1,000%.

LinkedIn DNS hijacked, site offline • The Register

LinkedIn DNS hijacked, site offline • The Register | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

LinkedIn is working on its right-on-the-ball-with-security reputation, this time letting slip its domain details.

 

According to this App.net post:

 

“LinkedIn just got DNS hijacked, and for the last hour or so, all of your traffic has been sent to a network hosted by this company [confluence-networks.com]. And they don't require SSL, so if you tried to visit, your browser sent your long-lived session cookies in plaintext.” (User @berg)

Backdoor entdeckt: Angreifer kaperten schon hunderte Apache-Server

Backdoor entdeckt: Angreifer kaperten schon hunderte Apache-Server | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
Bösartige Angreifer kapern Apache-Webserver und leiten deren Besucher auf Schad-Websites um. Die Tarnung der Malware ist fast perfekt.

 

Eine Hintertür, die von Administratoren nur schwer bemerkt werden kann, sorgt dafür, dass Internet-Anfragen an Apache-Server nicht in Logs aufgenommen werden. Die gesendeten http-Anfragen, die in Wirklichkeit einen Trojaner steuern, sind nicht ersichtlich. Der Rest des Angriffs läuft im Speicher ab, Bugfixes gibt es noch nicht.

 

29. April 2013 von Manfred Kohlen 0


Die Malware Linux/Cdorked.A ist eine raffinierte Hintertür, die alles tut, um den Internetverkehr auf schädliche Webseiten umzuleiten, schreibt Sicherheitsanbieter Eset in einer aktuellen Warnung.   Der Schädling sei so gut, dass er laut eigener Analysen schon hunderte von Webservern unter seine Kontrolle gebracht habe.

ENISA's new corporate 2013 video clip launched

ENISA's new corporate 2013 video clip launched | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
"Everything is connected"

 

ENISA has launched its new corporate video clip. This six-minutes movie describes the role of ENISA in a world where "everything is connected" both privately and professionaly. Communication technology  connects us to family, friends, banks, and other private and e-government services we all rely on. But the Internet is under constant threat, from crime, attacks and accidents. Spamhaus, Stuxnet, Flamer, High Roller  to name a few of the sophisticated cyber-attacks that took place the last 3 years.

 

It is the European Union Agency ENISA’s job to work with prevention at EU levels in the field of cyber security. ENISA is working with governments, regulators and industry to assess risks and identify practical solutions to keep business, citizens and economy secure.

 

This way, we support the smooth functioning of Europe’s internal market.
