Twitter bug gives 3rd-party apps access to users' Direct Messages | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
From www.net-security.org - January 22, 2013 11:54 AM

Some of these applications might have gained access to and might still have access to Twitter users private direct messages," he points out, and advises users to check third-party applications permissions and revoke the apps to which they never gave permission to access their DMs.

#SMBchat on Symantec Internet Security Threat Report on Thursday, April 25, at 9 a.m. PT / 12 p.m. ET

#SMBchat on Symantec Internet Security Threat Report on Thursday, April 25, at 9 a.m. PT / 12 p.m. ET | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
From www.symantec.com - April 22, 2013 1:56 PM
Symantec helps consumers and organizations secure and manage their information-driven world.

 

The ISTR, which covers the major threat trends observed by Symantec in 2012, reveals that cybercriminals view SMBs as a prime target for stealing information. In fact, the largest growth area for targeted attacks in 2012 was businesses with fewer than 250 employees; 31 percent of all attacks targeted them, representing a threefold increase from 2011.

 

Getting a clear understanding of the dangers is an important step in improving security, and this year’s report is a wake-up call that SMBs are now being specifically targeted by cybercriminals.
