Godzilla Hacker Takes Down Several Pakistani Government Websites

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zfmUGMgVYYI/U93fidYk1pI/AAAAAAAAGPs/kVWg-PN6F_A/s1600/Indian+hacker+Godzilla.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Godzilla Hacker Takes Down Several Pakistani Government Websites" border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zfmUGMgVYYI/U93fidYk1pI/AAAAAAAAGPs/kVWg-PN6F_A/s1600/Indian+hacker+Godzilla.jpg" title="Godzilla Hacker Takes Down Several Pakistani Government Websites" /></a></div>
<br />
While the rest of the world was engaged in cyber security and privacy, an Indian patriotic hacker targeted <b><span style="color: red;">43 major Pakistani Government official websites</span></b>, including ‘<b><span style="color: blue;">President of Pakistan</span></b>’, ‘<b><span style="color: blue;">Government of Pakistan</span></b>’, '<b><span style="color: blue;">Ministry of Defence</span></b>’, and <b><span style="color: blue;">Whole Ministry of Pakistan</span></b>.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: red;">Indian hacker <a href="http://rexhacker.blogspot.com/2014/08/godzilla-hacker-takes-down-several.html" target="_blank">Godzilla</a> </span></b>claimed responsibility to hack into one of the <b><span style="color: blue;">main proxy server</span></b> of the Pakistan Government, which is being used to manage all the government websites. Once the hacker gained the access to the proxy server, he managed to take down those websites.<br />
The attack on the websites are supposed to be severe as it has been over 24 hours and the websites are still down at the time of writing.<br />
<br />
The hacker posted a message on his Facebook profile saying, “Poor Pakistan no matter how hard you try we can bypass those security anytime we want. Before making a statement in media against India think twice.”<br />
<b><span style="color: red;">Godzilla aka G.O.D</span></b> is the same hacker who launched a cyber attack last year on a number of servers owned by the Pakistani government, causing a number of official departmental websites, including the Ministry of Science and Technology, Ministry of Information Technology and Ministry of Economic Affairs & Statistics, to crash.<br />
<br />
This is not the first time, the hacker was also responsible for hacking Pakistan government and Bangladesh government websites multiple times in past.<br />
<b><span style="color: blue;">The following websites are currently affected as a result of the security breach:</span></b><br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>http://www.pakistan.gov.pk</li>

Punishments For Cyber Crimes As Per Draft of E-Crime Bill

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-90OUPwM4w1Q/Uwy9m4qWrII/AAAAAAAAFdE/ThosckeT-34/s1600/Cyber-Crime.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Punishments For Cyber Crimes As Per Draft of E-Crime Bill" border="0" height="300" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-90OUPwM4w1Q/Uwy9m4qWrII/AAAAAAAAFdE/ThosckeT-34/s1600/Cyber-Crime.jpg" title="Punishments For Cyber Crimes As Per Draft of E-Crime Bill" width="400" /></a></div>
The Ministry of Information Technology (MoIT) has finalized a draft 
proposal to make provision for the prevention of electronic crimes in 
the country.<br />

As stated in the draft, the Act is named the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act, 2014.<br />

Such an Act was definitely required in Pakistan as the use of IT 
across the country has grown exponentially in the past few years. Both 
businesses and individuals will surely welcome the implementation of 
this Act.<br />

Commenting on the Draft the Minister of State for Information 
Technology and Telecom Ms. Anusha Rehman stated, “We are going to table a
 comprehensive Cyber crime bill before the cabinet which has been 
prepared in consultation with all stakeholders over the last 3 years. 
International best practices have been taken in to consideration while 
drafting it.”<br />

The submission of the Draft to the cabinet is expected this week. The
 State Minister chaired a meeting to review the final draft of the bill.
 The meeting was also attended by Mr. Akhlaq A. Tarrar, Secretary IT, 
Mr. Muhammad Amir Malik, Member (IT), Mr. Yasir Qadir, Member (Telecom) 
and representatives from Ministry of law, PTA, FIA and representative of
 ISPAK, PASHA and Barrister Zahid Jamil.<br />

It is learned that Barrister Zahid Jamil – and his team – drafted the bill.<br />
<div class="adsxpls" id="adsxpls1" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding: 0px; text-align: center;">
</div>
Once implemented, Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act, 2014 will help
 curb the illegal and unauthorized access to information system. The 
abuse and misuse of technology should be addressed under this Cyber 
Crimes Law.<br />

According to the draft bill posted on MoIT’s website, the Act will 
deal with Illegal access to information system, Illegal access to 
program or data, Illegal interference with program or data, Illegal 
interference with information system, Cyber terrorism, Electronic 
forgery, Electronic fraud, Identity crime, Special protection of women 
amongst many other things.<br />

Only the investigation officer of the investigation agency will have the power of arrest.<br />

According to the proposed draft, the Federal Investigation Agency 
(FIA) or any other investigating agency May be appointed by the Federal 
Government for cases of cyber crime.<br />

The draft bill proposes that ‘The Federal Government may cooperate 
with any foreign Government, 27 x 7 network, any foreign agency or any 
international agency for the purposes of investigations or proceedings 
concerning offences related to information systems, electronic 
communication or data.’<br />

The bill further adds that no person whether it is a police officer 
or investigation officer, other than an investigating officer of the 
special investigation agency, has the authority to investigate the 
offence under this Act.<br />

<h4>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Punishments:</span></h4>
E-Crime bill has suggested following punishments for cyber/E-crimes:<br />

<ul>
<li>As per draft regulation, a person accessing an information system – 
any device that has processing power, operates electronically and stores
 sensitive and private data – without authorization may face

TESCO Customers' Account Details Leaked Online

<div style="text-align: justify;">
You all were busy in celebrating <i>Valentine’s Day</i>
 with your loved ones, and the cyber criminals were too celebrating the 
day in their own way, and this time, with the TESCO customers.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tesco suffered and admitted a data breach
 and has been forced to deactivate thousands of its customers' net 
accounts after their login names and passwords were hacked and 
distributed online.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A list of over 2,240 <i>Tesco.com</i> internet shopping accounts was posted online on the <a href="http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=Q9TMDJXZ" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Pastebin</a>
 website by some unknown hackers on Thursday, allowing access to online 
shopping accounts, personal details and Tesco Clubcard vouchers, 
reported by <a href="http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/feb/14/tesco-customer-accounts-suspended-hacker-attack" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Guardian</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="clear: both; margin: 10px 0;">

</div>
<div id="aim21452941471160323804">
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A Tesco spokesperson said, "<i>We take the security of our customers' data extremely seriously and are urgently investigating these claims.</i>”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“<i>We have contacted all customers who may have been affected and are 
committed to ensuring that none of them miss out as a result of this. We
 will issue replacement vouchers to the very small numbers who are 
affected.</i>"</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is still vague how exactly the cyber criminals
 were potentially viable to gain access to the Tesco customer details, 
but some experts says the hackers compiled the stolen details from other
 websites and then found that Tesco customers used the same username and
 password combination as those in previous hacks against.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tOo7QJ4apII/Uv-CMSF2ofI/AAAAAAAAFXo/GKHCX3dhMg8/s1600/Tesco-emails-databased-hacked.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="TESCO Customers' Account Details Leaked Online" border="0" height="246" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tOo7QJ4apII/Uv-CMSF2ofI/AAAAAAAAFXo/GKHCX3dhMg8/s1600/Tesco-emails-databased-hacked.png" title="TESCO Customers' Account Details Leaked Online" width="400" /></a></div>
<span class="main-article-info"><div style="text-align: justify;">
This was not the first time when Tesco has fallen victim to cyber 
thieves. In 2013, Tesco came under a similar attack when hundreds of 
Tesco Clubcard users found their online accounts had been compromised.<br />
<br />
The company has also encountered several security issues with its 
website, where an XSS flaw left customers at risk of having their 
accounts hijacked.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In a blog post, the security researcher <a href="http://www.troyhunt.com/2014/02/the-tesco-hack-heres-how-it-probably.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Troy Hunt</a>, who previously claimed that Tesco was sending passwords in plain text via email, criticized the giant and said, "<i>I
 would not for a moment assume that the extent of the damage is only a

Earlier this month, Tesco accidentally revealed hundreds of customer

The customers are advised to use a different password for every single 
online account which they use, because you can’t always put your 
security into the head of service providers. It’s your own concern in 
protecting ourselves by not using the same password combinations or 
using passwords that are easy to second guess. Rather, use a 
pass-phrases that include lower case, upper case, numbers, special 
symbols which will also help you increase the complexity and easily

Largest Ever 400Gbps DDoS Attack Hits Europe Uses NTP Amplification

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-kzaZoVYiRFU/UvuHXypzjCI/AAAAAAAAFVM/IATYEwADwBs/s1600/NTP-Distributed-Denial-of-Service-DDoS-attack.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Largest Ever 400Gbps DDoS Attack Hits Europe Uses NTP Amplification" border="0" height="319" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-kzaZoVYiRFU/UvuHXypzjCI/AAAAAAAAFVM/IATYEwADwBs/s1600/NTP-Distributed-Denial-of-Service-DDoS-attack.png" title="Largest Ever 400Gbps DDoS Attack Hits Europe Uses NTP Amplification" width="400" /></a></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack is the one of favorite 
weapon for the hackers to temporarily suspend services of a host 
connected to the Internet and till now nearly every big site had been a 
victim of this attack.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Since 2013, Hackers have adopted new tactics to boost Distributed Denial of Service attack sizes, which is known as ‘<i>Amplification Attack</i>’,
 that provide the benefits of obscuring the source of the attack, while 
enabling the bandwidth to be used to multiply the size of the attack.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
</div>
<div style="clear: both; margin: 10px 0;">
</div>
<div id="aim24030714330331657239">
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Just yesterday, hackers have succeeded in reaching new heights of the massive DDoS attack targeting content-delivery and anti-DDoS protection firm <i><a href="http://blog.cloudflare.com/understanding-and-mitigating-ntp-based-ddos-attacks" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Cloudfare</a></i>, reaching more than 400Gbps at its peak of traffic, striking at the company’s data servers in Europe.</div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;">
“<i>Very big NTP reflection attack hitting us right now. Appears to be bigger than the #Spamhaus attack from last year. Mitigating</i>,” Cloudflare CEO Matthew Price said in a tweet. “<i>Someone’s got a big, new cannon. Start of ugly things to come</i>,”</blockquote>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This massive DDoS attack was greater than ever in history of the Internet, and larger than previous DDoS record-holder <i>Spamhaus </i>DDoS attack i.e. 300Gbps, that almost broke the Internet.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Attackers leveraged weaknesses in the Network Time Protocol (NTP),
 which is used to synchronize computer clocks, but hackers are abusing 
the NTP servers by sending small spoofed 8-byte UDP packets to the 
vulnerable server that requests a large amount of data (megabytes worth 
of traffic) to be sent to the DDoS's target IP Address.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The frequency of NTP reflection attacks has grown in recent months. 
While researchers have long-predicted that NTP might someday become a 
great vector for DDoS attacks and ideal DDoS tool, and the trend has 
recently become popular, causing an issue for some gaming websites and service provider.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Recently, The <a href="https://www.us-cert.gov/ncas/alerts/TA14-017A" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">US-CERT</a>
 issued an alert warning, listed certain UDP protocols identified as 
potential attack vectors for Amplification Attack, including DNS, NTP, 
SNMPv2, NetBIOS, SSDP ,CharGEN, QOTD, BitTorrent, Kad, Quake Network and
 Protocol Steam Protocol.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As all versions of ntpd prior to 4.2.7 are vulnerable by default, the 
simplest recommended course of action is to upgrade all versions of ntpd
 that are publically accessible to at least 4.2.7. Until all the 
misconfigured NTP servers are cleaned up, attacks of this nature will 
continue.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Snapchat</b>,
 a Smartphone application that lets users share snapshots with friends 
is catching fire among teenagers. It was first hacked in December when 
4.6 million Snapchat users were exposed in a database breach.<br />
</div>
<div style="clear: both; margin: 10px 0;">

</div>
<div id="aim22428252392907758956">
<br />
Later, the denial-of-service attack and CAPTCHA Security bypass
 were discovered by other researchers within last two-three weeks. 
Snapchat has no Vulnerability Reward Program, but still many penetration
 testers are working hard and free of cost to make the application more 
secure by disclosing flaws.
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Interestingly, this is not the end of vulnerabilities, <i>Mohamed Ramadan</i>, a security researcher with Attack-Secure from Egypt, has spotted a new vulnerability on Snapchat that allow an attacker to brute-force
 login credentials of the users. Brute-force is a process of trying 
multiple passwords against a username until you get a correct password.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"<i>This vulnerability allows anyone who knows your SnapChat email to 
brute force your account’s password without any protection from snapchat
 side, there is no lockout. Limited tries or even </i><i>Captcha.</i>" he said in a <a href="http://attack-secure.com/2014/02/account-brute-forcing-vulnerability-in-snapchat-app/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">blog post</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<center>
</center>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He found this security flaw late in 2013, reported it to Snapchat's 
Security Team and they took 2 Months to fix the flaw. However, 
vulnerability has been fixed; but users are recommended to use Strong 
passwords always.<br />
<br />
The security flaws doesn't mean that SnapChat is losing its reputation 
in the market as security issues are common in every app we use today, 
and moreover it is the popularity and easiness of the app that Facebook 
offered $3 Billion to purchase it but the SnapChat CEO rejected the 
offer.</div>

many other tantrums making them feel special.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
While you are busy in Googling ideal gifts for your loved ones, the 
Cyber thieves are also busy in taking advantage of such events by 
spreading various malware, phishing campaigns and fraud schemes as these days come out to be a goldmine for the cyber criminals.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

This Valentine's Day, with the popularity of Android phones and iPhones,
 it seems practical to impress your beloved by sending e-cards using 
various Valentine's Day Apps, but you never realize that despite sending
 E-cards, you are also inflicting an Android malware on your beloveds which could be worse to your relation.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The security researchers from <i>Bitdefender</i> recently released a 
report, noted how such Valentine's Day apps could demand undue 
permissions, that could violate users’ privacy, rack up users’ phone 
bills, and even possibly cause identity theft.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The researchers have detected various malware-inflicted apps, one of which is ‘<b>Valentine’s Day 2014 Wallpaper</b>.’
 The app records user’s location and his browsing history in the process
 without having any justification for asking permissions.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Another is ‘<b>Valentine's Day Frames</b>’, the app that reads the 
user’s contacts list, which is logically an odd request because the app 
is only intended to adorn user’s romantic photographs with Valentine's 
Day themed photo frames. <i>So what’s the use of reading your contact list for this app?</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One more, ‘<b>Love Letters for Chat, Status</b>’ which allows you to 
share love quotes, letters, and even poems to your dearest friends, but 
the app is capable to send emails, make phone calls, change audio 
settings, and even modify calendar events without your permission. So 
gifting this to your beloved may cause an end to you sweet relation.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Seasonal deals and offers are common place, so its users own duty to 
spot what’s malicious and what’s not. Following are some tips every 
Internet user must follow:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<ul>
<li>Do not to open emails and click links in wild from unknown sources.</li>
<li>Do not run attached files that come from unknown sources, especially these days.</li>
<li>The biggest bargains aren’t always the biggest stealing. If an offer
 sounds too good to be true, it probably is, but if you are making 
purchases online, then prefer a reputed shopping site and type the 
address of the store in the browser, rather than going through any links
 that have been sent to you.</li>
<li>Has an effective security solution installed in your system that is capable of detecting both known and new malware strains.</li>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Cryptographer Professor <i>Jean-Jacques Quisquater</i>
 has become the part of a targeted attack by the US National Security 
Agency (NSA) and its British counterpart GCHQ, first reported on 
Saturday morning by <a href="http://www.standaard.be/cnt/dmf20140131_049" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">De Standaard</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A few months back in<i> September 2013</i> it was revealed that, Belgacom,
 the largest telecommunications company in Belgium was hacked and number
 of employees on Belgacom’s network, including their servers were 
compromised.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div id="aim23739986018066392128">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Later in <i>November 2013</i>, it was revealed that the NSA and GCHQ were behind the infiltration of the company’s computers, according to the document provided by the former NSA contractor <i>Edward Snowden</i>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The document detailed that the British intelligence agency GCHQ created fake ‘<i>LinkedIn</i>’ and ‘<i>Slashdot</i>’ pages to spy on computers of Belgacom network engineers. They used a method called “<i>quantum insert</i>”, to redirect employees to fake websites that contained malware using<b> Man in the middle attack</b> to a spoofed server (<i>codenamed "Fox Acid"</i>), which can respond faster than the real one, is placed somewhere on the Internet backbone.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The company had filed the complaint against an unknown third party to <i>Belgian federal police (FCCU)</i>
 and granted its full support to the investigation, which revealed that 
Quisquater’s computer was allegedly hacked in the same way as 
Belgacom’s. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He had fallen victim to the same ‘<i>quantum insert</i>’ attack in which
 by responding to a LinkedIn message actually redirected him to a 
copycat website that infected his computer with spying malware.</div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>"I received an ordinary e-mail asking me to connect to LinkedIn. I 
often receive that kind of mail. I didn't open it; I just looked at the 
content. It was sent by I person I know. At least, at first sight, 
because in reality it was sent by someone else. By the time I realized 
that, it was already too late as I had clicked on the link containing 
the person's profile," </i>Prof. Quisquater told reporters. He also added,<i>"My
 computer started to do strange things. If I have been hacked, there are
 bound to be hundreds of other cases where individuals were spied on, 
also in Belgium.</i>"</div>
</blockquote>

“<i>The Belgian federal police sent me a warning about this attack and did the analysis,</i>” Quisquater told <a href="http://gigaom.com/2014/02/01/nsa-and-gchq-hacked-belgian-cryptographer-report/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Gigaom</a>.

He doesn’t know the actual reason he could have been targeted, but can be estimated that: “<i>There
 are many hypotheses (about 12 or 15) but it is certainly an industrial 
espionage plus a surveillance of people working about civilian 
cryptography.</i>”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Jean-Jacques Quisquater</i> is a well-known professor in cryptography
 at the Université Catholique de Louvain (UCL) in Louvain-la-Neuve. 
There could be many reasons for him to be targeted by the intelligence 
agencies. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Quisquater is worldwide renowned because of his work in cryptography and we found a presentation called “<a href="http://catacrypt.org/rsa-isat-brief%20-%20Public.pdf" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><b>The End of RSA</b></a>” on his website that uncovered severe vulnerabilities in <span class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" id="31e38661-e9f8-4c40-89b5-91a1a194d116">deployed</span> systems using RSA, which could be one more reason for targeting him.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
One of the world’s largest mobile operator '<b><i>Orange</i></b>' has been hit by data breach.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The French multinational telecommunication company announced recently, 
it was targeted by unknown hackers on 16th January 2014, who allegedly 
gained access to the accounts of up to 800,000 customers of Orange 
website.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div id="aim27672027004397295782">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to a report published on the <a href="http://www.pcinpact.com/news/85647-orange-victime-dune-intrusion-informatique-donnees-dans-nature.htm" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><i>PC INpact</i></a> website, the company warned their customers in an email that their Client Area website<i> orange.fr</i> was hacked and personal data of 3% customers have been stolen, but the passwords are not affected.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The hacker has successfully stolen customers' names, mailing address, email, landline and mobile phone numbers.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The company warned, with the information lost in this attack, hackers 
can perform phishing attacks, allowing them to steal personal data, 
including bank account details and passwords by sending emails that look
 as if they have come from official sources.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Orange has confirmed the data breach, and after the discovery of the attack, they closed "<i>My Account</i>" page from the website quickly for a few hours as a precaution.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Orange customers should, of course, change their security details of the affected accounts. </div>

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A pro-hacker group, aligned with president <i>Bashar al-Assad,</i> very well known as <b>Syrian Electronic Army </b>(SEA) has again gained the media attention by adding the popular sites, i.e. <b>eBay UK</b> and <b>PayPal</b> <b>UK </b>to its victim list.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
After targeting websites of various media agencies, government 
organizations and big enterprises, including the latest defaced CNN and 
Microsoft, today they targeted and defaced the official websites of UK’s
 Ebay (<i>ebay.co.uk</i>) and PayPal (<i>paypal.co.uk</i>).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
</div>
<div style="float: left; margin: 15px 15px 0 10px;">

</div>
<div id="aim21103399471783237366">
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The group also left a deface page along with a message on the hacked PayPal UK site: “<i>Hacked by Syrian Electronic Army! Fuck the United States Government.</i>”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is clear that the attack on PayPal could put millions of peoples' 
bank information at risk, but the group said that the attack is not to 
target account information of people instead was ‘<i>Purely a Hacktivist Operation</i>’ with the reason behind is the discrimination of Syrian citizens by PayPal company.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“<i>For denying Syrian citizens the ability to purchase online products, PayPal was hacked by SEA</i>”, “<i>If
 your PayPal account is down for a few minutes, think about Syrians who 
were denied online payments for more than 3 years. #SEA</i>”, the messages in the Official Twitter account of the group.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
PayPal is currently one of the biggest international e-commerce 
business, allowing payments and money transfers to be made through the 
Internet. Whereas eBay is an American multinational internet 
consumer-to-consumer corporation popularly used for Online shopping 
around the Globe. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Anuj Nayar</i>, PayPal's senior director of global initiatives, told <a href="http://mashable.com/2014/02/01/syrian-electronic-army-ebay/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Mashable</a>, "<i>For
 a brief period today, a very limited number of people visiting certain 
PayPal and eBay marketing pages in the UK, France and India were 
redirected. The issue was quickly detected and resolved. No customer 
data was accessed by these redirects, and no customer accounts were 
affected. We take the security and privacy of our customers very 
seriously and are actively investigating the reasons behind the 
temporary redirects.</i>"</div>

Spying Agencies Tracking Your Location by Capturing MAC Address of Your Devices

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-iVEwqM9-fqE/UuzBzL6QWyI/AAAAAAAAFOA/Vm3bYViqavA/s1600/Spying+agencies+tracking+your+location+by+capturing+MAC+address+of+your+devices.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="273" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-iVEwqM9-fqE/UuzBzL6QWyI/AAAAAAAAFOA/Vm3bYViqavA/s1600/Spying+agencies+tracking+your+location+by+capturing+MAC+address+of+your+devices.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Again a top secret revelation from the Snowden’s Desk! A new document retrieved by the whistleblower <i>Edward Snowden</i>
 shows that the Canadian spy agency is tracking airline travelers even 
days after they left the  terminal, just by capturing their device 
identification from the free Wi-Fi service at a major Canadian airport.</div>
<div style="float: left; margin: 15px 15px 0 10px;">
</div>
<div id="aim22282488393940852163">
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>CBC News</i> <a href="http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/csec-used-airport-wi-fi-to-track-canadian-travellers-edward-snowden-documents-1.2517881" target="_blank">reported</a> that the US Intelligence agency worked with its counterpart <i>Communications Security Establishment Canada (CSEC)</i>
 in Canada, and slurped information from the free Internet hotspots to 
track anyone who passed through the airport terminal, and could be 
tracked throughout the country by cross-referencing it with the 
intercepted information from Wifi at cafes, libraries and other public 
places, although it is not clear that they were tracking only the users 
who logged-in to the WiFi services or not.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But It is also possible that one
 can capture the MAC addresses of all the available devices within the 
range of a Wi-Fi device (using some special tools like <i>Aircrack-NG</i>,
 a wifi hacking toolkit), even without making a login connection, where 
the MAC address of the traveler's device represents its unique 
identification. Same capturing devices were implemented  throughout the 
country in all public places, hotels, coffee shops and restaurants, 
libraries, ground transportation hubs, movie halls etc. to capture the 
MAC addresses.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Using a database of all 
collected MAC addresses from all over the country, it becomes possible 
for the spy agencies to track the location of a traveler by 
cross-referencing its unique identification i.e. MAC address.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Document shows the federal 
intelligence agency was collecting MAC addresses also in the U.S. 
Airports, and literally at other thousands of public places in the U.S.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“T<i>he
 document makes it clear that CSEC intended to share both the 
technologies and future information generated by it with Canada's 
official spying partners — the U.S., Britain, New Zealand and Australia,
 the so-called Five Eyes intelligence network.</i>”</blockquote>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In a written statement provided by the CSEC to CBC news states that it is "<i>mandated
 to collect foreign signals intelligence to protect Canada and 
Canadians. And in order to fulfill that key, foreign intelligence role 
for the country, CSEC is legally authorized to collect and analyze 
metadata.</i>" They also added that, "<i>No Canadian communications were (or are) targeted, collected or used.</i>"</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The author of the book <i>Black Code: Inside the Battle for Cyberspace</i>, Ronald Deibert said "<i>I
 can't see any circumstance in which this would not be unlawful, under 
current Canadian law, under our Charter, under CSEC's mandates.</i>" </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Document states that the "<i>Passengers tracking operation</i>" is the trial run of ‘<b><i>game-changing</i></b>’, a new software program that the CSEC was developing with the help of NSA (National Security Agency).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The country's two largest airports, <i>Toronto</i> and <i>Vancouver</i>, both say they have never supplied CSEC or other Canadian intelligence agency with information on passengers' Wi-Fi use.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now this is why the most 
powerful Intelligence official in the United States told a Senate 
committee Wednesday that the National Security Agency leaker Edward 
Snowden is a hypocrite; he & his supposed accomplices should return 
any classified documents he still has.</div>

Yahoo Mail hacked; Change Your Account Password Immediately

<div style="text-align: justify;">
A really bad year for the world's second-largest email service provider, <b>Yahoo Mail</b>! The company <a href="http://yahoo.tumblr.com/post/75083532312/important-security-update-for-yahoo-mail-users" target="_blank">announced</a> today, '<i>we identified a coordinated effort to gain unauthorized access to Yahoo Mail accounts</i>', user names and passwords of its email customers have been stolen and are used to access multiple accounts.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Yahoo did not say how many accounts have been affected, and neither they
 are sure about the source of the leaked users' credentials. It appears 
to have come from a third party database being compromised, and not an 
infiltration of Yahoo's own servers.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="main-article-info"><div style="text-align: justify;">
"<i>We have no evidence that they were obtained directly from Yahoo’s 
systems. Our ongoing investigation shows that malicious computer 
software used the list of usernames and passwords to access Yahoo Mail 
accounts. The information sought in the attack seems to be names and 
email addresses from the affected accounts’ most recent sent emails.</i>"</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For now, Yahoo is taking proactive actions to protect their affected users, "<i>We
 are resetting passwords on impacted accounts and we are using second 
sign-in verification to allow users to re-secure their accounts. 
Impacted users will be prompted (if not, already) to change their 
password and may receive an email notification or an SMS text if they 
have added a mobile number to their account.</i>" </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
People frequently use the same passwords on multiple accounts, so 
possibly hackers are brute-forcing Yahoo accounts with the user 
credentials stolen from other data breaches. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Yahoo users can prevent account hijacks by using a strong and unique password. You can use 'Random strong password generator' feature of <i>DuckDuckGo search engine</i> to get a unique & strong password. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Users are also recommended to enable two-factor authentication, which 
requires a code texted to the legitimate user's mobile phone whenever a 
login attempt is made from a new computer.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Yahoo! was hacked in July 2012, with attackers stealing 450,000 email addresses and passwords from a Yahoo! contributor network.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Readers can also download two free Whitepaper related to the Email and account security:</div>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Cloud-Based Email Archiving</li>
<li>Email Data Loss Prevention</li>
</ol>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well, Yahoo is now working with federal law enforcement as a part of its  investigation.</div>
