Hello DaniWeb members, I know I'm not the only one who has tried to talk with non-hackers and used the term 'Crackers', to their total confusion. The problem is that the media has always refered to the Black Hat Hackers as just 'hackers', and that has given the **REAL** (White and maybe Grey Hat) Hackers a bad name. At the same time the term 'Cracker' has a slang meaning that many more people know about. So, this day I offer you a challenge! Let's see what all of our wit and creativity can come up with! What are your ideas … |

I am thinking about making a website on a VPS. I've read on internet that if someone hacks my website and puts a malware into links or if he steals personal information(including passwords), not only hacker but the owner of the website is responsible too and a lawsuit may be opened against him/them and may pay big fines. If this is true then I really don't understand how so many people create websites and taking this risk.There may be no lawyer in this forum but I am asking to other people too, to webdevelopers(or people who want to be a … |

I have a question for those who are looking for bugs and vulnerabilities for money. How are you looking for customers? Is it freelance or a permanent job or a hobby? I found one blockchain project that offers to find vulnerabilities for money. I will post the text of their proposal, if the administration does not mind: *In order to improve the security of the program code, we announce the beginning of bug-hunting. Anyone who finds a new critical bug (vulnerability) will get 100 000 TERA. Bug should be reported confidentially to progr76@gmail.com or telegram @progr76 TERA Foundation: https://terafoundation.org* What … |

The Conservative party issued a statement on Saturday which apologised for "any concern caused" and confirmed that "the technical issue has been resolved and the app is now functioning securely." However, not before Boris Johnson's profile image had been changed to a pornographic one and that of Environment Secretary, Michael Gove, swapped for a picture of Rupert Murdoch. Some ministers, and other MPs, apparently reported receiving nuisance calls following the app breach. The Information Commissioner's Office has confirmed that it is investigating the incident, and bite the Tories with a large fine. Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), … |

I would like to inform the people here on this site (Daniwebs) community know that my account here with Daniweb was not only accessed and found to have been accessed on the Darkweb, it was hacked. I have yet figured out exactly what they were using my account for, or to do while on my account yet and from where, what IP address or hopefully who. When I do figure this out, I will update as I make progress. A note to those that are quickly thinking "I must have used an unsecure password like password, 1234, admin, etc." well … |

Guardian newspaper columnist [Dawn Foster](https://twitter.com/DawnHFoster) posted images on Twitter this weekend showing how she was able to login to the official Conservative party conference app as Boris Johnson, until recently the UK Foreign Secretary. Not only was there no password required to login to the app, all that was required was an email address, but once in all the details of user registration were accessible. So, in the case of Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson (yes, that is his real name) that meant contact details such as his mobile phone number. It also meant that the logged in user could … |

Hi. I'm concerned an ex has installed spy software on my computer (and maybe iPhone, but that's for another thread). I've spent days reading about it and I'm not really any closer to figuring out if this is the case, and if so how to uninstall it. Any help would be much appreciated! |

The second annual Imperva Hacker Intelligence Initiative report, this one entitled [Monitoring Hacker Forums](http://www.imperva.com/docs/HII_Monitoring_Hacker_Forums_2012.pdf), is out and reveals that the threat surfaces being discussed by the hacker community are very different from those that businesses are spending money on defending against attack.  The Imperva research analysed the content of a number of online hacker communities, including many lesser known forums in order to get a more accurate snapshot of what those doing the hacking are actually discussing. By looking at a total of more than 400,000 different conversational threads, Imperva was able to determine that SQL injection and … |

Hey guys! it would be great if somebody here could advise me asap. I have an e-commerce website that was running well. . A week ago, the website got hacked and several pointless pages have been added to it. We found it and removed all pages as soon as we can. But we're worried if the website is infected with spyware or any malware. We couldn't take the risk of clients money and so the website is momentarily closed until a cybersecurity assessment is done. I hope that, after the evaluation, we can make sure whether the website is clean … |

News has broken this weekend that the personal data, including bank account details, of some 2.4 million customers of the Carphone Warehouse may have been compromised following a breach that the mobile phone retail giant is calling "a sophisticated cyber-attack." The company also warns that encrypted credit card data of up to 90,000 customers may have been accessed during the breach. Scotland Yard and the Information Commissioner's Office have both been notified, along with a security outfit specialising in forensic examination of such attacks. However, the statement from Carphone Warehouse, released on Saturday, and revealing that the compromised personal details … |

While keen to point out that Microsoft's TechNet portal security was "in no way compromised" by the tactic, researchers with security outfit FireEye [discovered](https://www.fireeye.com/blog/threat-research/2015/05/hiding_in_plain_sigh.html) that [a well established China-based hacking campaign called Deputy Dog](https://www.fireeye.com/blog/threat-research/2013/09/operation-deputydog-zero-day-cve-2013-3893-attack-against-japanese-targets.html) had managed to create profiles and posts on TechNet that contained embedded Command and Control codes for use with a BlackCoffee malware variant. This method of hiding in plain sight is nothing new, but it can make detection problematical as the data (especially within a technical forum such as TechNet) is simply 'lost' in a sea of similar code from genuine users of a well respected … |

In what has quite possibly been one of the longest periods between security problems being revealed and action being taken, the Virginia Board of Elections voted on Tuesday to remove the certification of more than 300 AVS WINVote touchscreen voting machines. The Virginia Information Technology Agency, and consultancy Pro V&V, uncovered multiple flaws in the voting technology which had also been used in other states including Mississippi and Pennsylvania. The scandal here is that there have been concerted efforts to remove these machines from the electoral system since 2008 when experts investigating irregularities first flagged their concerns. They have consistently … |

Addressing last weeks Securi-Tay conference hosted by the Abertay Ethical Hacking Society in Scotland, Stephen Tomkinson from the NCC Group detailed how Blu-ray players can do more than play videos; they can open up a new attack surface for the hacker. Tomkinson demonstrated a new tool that had been released in order to enable the investigation of embedded network devices, and used the network exposed features on a common Blu-ray player as an example. He showed how an innocent looking Blu-ray disc can actually circumvent sandboxes and present the hacker with control of the underlying systems. Of course, that innocent … |

The hacker collective known as Anonymous first declared war on Islamic State (formerly known as ISIS) supporters back in the Summer of 2014 with [Operation NO2ISIS](http://www.forbes.com/sites/jasperhamill/2014/06/27/anonymous-hacktivists-prepare-for-strike-against-isis-supporters/) which promised to target the online infrastructure of those countries sponsoring Islamic State militants. This declaration followed the hacking of an Anonymous Twitter account, @TheAnonMessage, which was then used to post photos of a terrorist assault near Baghdad. At the time, an Anonymous spokesperson stated that "these savages who have no religion or morality are bent on burning everything in their path, killing and pillaging as they go. They must be stopped." Because Islamic … |

It's the festive season but would you really expect Lady Gaga to give you a free iPad 2? That was the exact message being broadcast from Lady Gaga's Twitter account earlier, promising each and every one of her 17 million followers an iPad 2 and all they had to do was click the link for details. [ATTACH=RIGHT]23296[/ATTACH]Of course, there was no iPad. The Lady Gaga Twitter account had been hacked and if you clicked on that link it would take you to a number of different sites via redirects and then dump you at a survey designed to scam you … |

Ever wondered why the bad guys continue throwing malware in your direction? The obvious answer is the correct one: because they make money from doing it. On Thanksgiving Day, as all others across the year it would seem, they can be thankful for the high profit to be raked in from using readily available malware purchased within the dark market. Kaspersky Lab researchers have been doing the math, and their figures suggest that when comparing the cost of the most common hacker tools with the cold cash stolen using them the profit is around 20 times greater than the outlay. … |

As well as being CEO of penetration testing specialists High-Tech Bridge, Ilia Kolochenko is also perhaps unsurprisingly a white hat hacker of some repute. Equally unsurprising is the fact that he has [warned](https://www.htbridge.com/blog/plugins_and_extensions_the_achilles_heel_of_popular_cmss.html) that security vulnerabilities in leading CMS platforms such as Drupal, Joomla and WordPress are effectively leaving the security door wide open for hackers to walk through. Kolochenko refers to the threat posed by old plugins, passwords and extensions as being the 'Achilles heel of popular CMS' and for good reason. High-Tech Bridge regularly tests popular CMSs via the ImmuniWeb online penetration testing service and equally regularly, sadly, … |

Not exactly the most surprising news ever, that Anonymous is [planning an all out DDoS war on World Cup corporate sponsors](http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/world-cup-2014-hacktivist-group-anonymous-plan-cyberattack-on-world-cup-sponsors-9467786.html) during the football tournament. Personally, I wish them luck. Cannot stand football, in fact hate it with a passion and the world cup period is a nightmare every four years with no escape wherever you go and whatever you do. Media coverage is ridiculous in the UK, anyone would think that football is some kind of religion. I also have no love for the large corporates which sponsor such events, being an anarchist at heart. Your mileage may well … |

**How do passwords work?** What a password isn't, or at least really shouldn't be, is some kind of secret word or phrase that is simply compared against a table of usernames in a login database. Such plaintext systems are about as secure as a chocolate padlock on a furnace door. Even a login system whereby those passwords are encrypted isn't much better, although many people assume they are safe as houses. Breaches across the years have proven how insecure any system which relies purely on reversible algorithm encryption really is. The user logs in and enters a password, this triggers … |

As a gamer myself, I thought that last year was a pretty good one. After all, not only did I get to play both GTA V and Call of Duty: Ghosts (indeed, I'm still playing it and working my may through the prestige levels) but if I had enough spare cash and will I could have bought an Xbox One or PlayStation 4. As it happens, I did buy a Lenovo IdeaPad Y510P which can manage a pretty respectable average of 40fps in Crysis on the high quality settings at native resolution. However, according to research figures from Kaspersky Lab, … |

US retail giant Target [has confirmed](http://pressroom.target.com/news/target-confirms-unauthorized-access-to-payment-card-data-in-u-s-stores) that hackers gained access to payment card data that could mean 40 million credit and debit card accounts are at risk. An official statement says that the retailer is "aware of unauthorized access to payment card data that may have impacted certain guests making credit and debit card purchases in its U.S. stores" and is now working with law enforcement and financial institutions having "identified and resolved the issue". The accounts in question were targeted, no excuse for the pun, between November 27th and December 15th in order to hit the increasingly busy seasonal … |

According to a [report](http://www.fireeye.com/resources/pdfs/fireeye-operation-ke3chang.pdf) from researchers at US security outfit FireEye, a number of computers belonging to diplomats attending the G20 summit in Russia three months ago, including at least five European foreign ministries, were successfully targeted by Chinese hackers. FireEye researchers had monitored a server, one of 23, used by the Ke3chang group in August. This enabled them to observe the malware in action, although FireEye says no data was stolen as far as they were aware during this period of observation. Naturally the security firm contacted the relevant authorities as soon as it realised what was underway. The … |

Tumblr, the hugely popular blogging service which was bought by Yahoo! last month, has advised mobile users to change their passwords, and change them immediately. In a posting to the Tumblr staff blog, a spokesperson states "We have just released a very important security update for our iPhone and iPad apps addressing an issue that allowed passwords to be compromised in certain circumstances." The precise details of the vulnerability that enabled this password compromise appear to be rarer than rocking horse crap, however there's a pretty big clue in a footnote to that staff blog post which defines 'certain circumstances' … |

While the News International [phone hacking scandal](http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/phone-hacking) that saw the demise of the News of the World newspaper cannot have escaped your attention in the US or UK, news from India concerning the latest 'tumble and clone' developments could leave the mobile phone calls of more than just celebrities at risk of hacking. If you thought it was bad enough that UK newspapers have apparently been hacking into the mobile telephone conversations of celebrities and others 'in the news' in order to gain a competitive advantage when breaking news stories, then wait until you hear the latest [reports](http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/todays-paper/article3010105.ece) to come … |
