Canada Cops Arrests Teen Cyber-Attack Suspect.

 Canada Cops Arrests Teen Cyber-Attack Suspect. Police in Manitoba, Canada, have arrested an 18-year-old man on suspicion of carrying out cyber-attacks on victims across North America.  Dayne Parrott-Jones, of Brandon, was taken into custody on March 8 by members of the Brandon Police Service Crime Suppression Unit following an 11-month investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and police forces in America and Canada. The teen is suspected of carrying out distributed denial of service (DDOS) attacks with a co-conspirator based in San Antonio, Texas. It is alleged that third parties paid the pair to perform the attacks.  Parrot-Jones' girlfriend, 24-year-old Rolanda Chaske, who shares his home on Pacific Avenue, was also arrested, but not in connection with the alleged cyber-crimes.  Sergeant Brian Partridge said: "In April of 2021, Brandon Police Service was contacted by the FBI in Los Angeles about a pair of co-conspirators that were conducting cyber-attacks

Consistency in password resets helps block credential theft.

Consistency in password resets helps block credential theft. Phishing attacks have become a massive problem for organizations of all sizes. According to Expert Insights’ recent study “almost 20% of all employees are likely to click on phishing email links and, of those, a staggering 67.5% go on to enter their credentials on a phishing website.” This type of credential theft can have far-reaching consequences ranging from data leakage to human-operated ransomware attacks. The most disturbing part of this is knowing that any user can potentially unleash a devastating attack on your organization with a single mouse click. Organizations must therefore take decisive action to prevent users from falling victim to phishing attacks. ✳️ Mail filtering is not enough Unfortunately, there is no one single solution that will effectively stop all phishing attacks. As such, organizations should practice defense in depth. Filtering inbound email and removing phishing messages before they make it into

Mandiant Discloses Critical Vulnerability Affecting Millions of IoT Devices

Today, Mandiant disclosed a critical risk vulnerability in coordination with the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (“CISA”) that affects millions of IoT devices that use the ThroughTek “Kalay” network. This vulnerability, discovered by researchers on Mandiant’s Red Team in late 2020, would enable adversaries to remotely compromise victim IoT devices, resulting in the ability to listen to live audio, watch real time video data, and compromise device credentials for further attacks based on exposed device functionality. These further attacks could include actions that would allow an adversary to remotely control affected devices. At the time of writing this blog post, ThroughTek advertises having more than 83 million active devices and over 1.1 billion monthly connections on their platform. ThroughTek’s clients include IoT camera manufacturers, smart baby monitors, and Digital Video Recorder (“DVR”) products. Unlike the vulnerability published by researchers from Nozomi Ne

Beijing sees TikTok as an extension of the party

The Chinese government is getting in on tech giant ByteDance, which owns TikTok. U.S. politicians now fear that China is slowly but surely usurping power over the video app.  The deal was struck in secret. Not a word leaked to the public. Four months ago, the Chinese government got in on a subsidiary of Beijing tech giant ByteDance. The government acquired a one percent stake and was given a seat on the supervisory board. Only now has the deal become public - and it immediately caused unrest, especially in the US. That's because Bytedance also owns the video app TikTok, which is now downloaded more often in America than Instagram, WhatsApp and Facebook. So is China expanding its influence in the country with which it was until recently engaged in a bitter trade war? At first glance, it all seems to concern only China itself. The subsidiary into which the state entered holds the licenses to operate Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok, and Toutiao, a news portal. Both services are

OnlyFans is going to block sexually explicit videos starting in October

OnlyFans is getting out of the pornography business. The company will prohibit users from posting any sexually explicit conduct, starting in October. Creators will still be allowed to post nude photos and videos, provided they’re consistent with OnlyFans’ policy, the company said Thursday. The changes are needed because of mounting pressure from banking partners and payment providers, according to the company. “In order to ensure the long-term sustainability of our platform, and the continue to host an inclusive community of creators and fans, we must evolve our content guidelines,” OnlyFans said. OnlyFans has attracted more than 130 million users by giving online creators a platform to charge their fans for photos and videos. Many of its most-popular creators post nude photos and videos, and it has been praised for giving sex workers a safer place to do their jobs. But sex work still has a stigma. And OnlyFans is trying to raise money from outside investors at a valuation of more than

FTC requests Facebook sell WhatsApp and Instagram in major antitrust case

The US Federal Trade Commission has re-filed its complaint against Facebook, arguing that the company should be broken up and forced to sell Instagram and WhatsApp. The revised complaint argues that Facebook has a monopoly over social networking in the US and argues that Facebook has looked to make it difficult for other companies to compete. The complaint is partly redacted, and the FTC’s filing asks that it is sealed for 10 days. The new case comes amid mounting scrutiny over the size and power of Facebook’s empire and how it has bought up competitors as they have grown. The case makes reference to an email from Mark Zuckerberg, sent in 2008, in which he said “it is better to buy than compete”. The FTC’s lawyers argue that Facebook has acted in accordance with that strategy, tracking its rivals and buying them when they become big enough to be threats. source- https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/facebook-ftc-whatsapp-instagram-antitrust-b1905429.html

More than $90 million in cryptocurrency stolen after a top Japanese exchange is hacked

Japanese cryptocurrency exchange Liquid said Thursday it has been hit by a cyberattack that saw hackers make off with a reported $97 million worth of digital coins. Liquid said some of its digital currency wallets had been "compromised," and that hackers were transferring the assets to four different wallets. "We are currently investigating and will provide regular updates," Liquid tweeted. "In the meantime, deposits and withdrawals will be suspended." Liquid did not provide an estimate for the loss. It says it is regulated by Japan's Financial Services Agency. The watchdog was not immediately available for comment when contacted by CNBC. Elliptic, a blockchain analytics company, said its analysis showed that the hackers obtained about $97 million in cryptocurrencies. Of the total haul, $45 million in tokens were being converted to ethereum through decentralized exchanges — blockchain-based platforms that require no intermediaries — like Uniswap and Su

Google hidden features in deep. What is Google Dorks? Where to find Google Dorks?

Today we talk about Google hidden features in deep.So let's get started.  Let's talk about one search engine used by pentesters / hackers - Google, more precisely about the hidden capabilities of Google. Google dorks  What is Google Dorks? Google Dork or Google Dork Queries (GDQ) is a set of queries to identify the grossest security holes. Anything that is not properly hidden from search engines. For brevity, such requests are called Google Dorks, or simply Dorks, like those admins whose resources were hacked using GDQ. Google operators To begin with, I would like to provide a small list of useful Google commands. Among all the commands for advanced Google search, we are mainly interested in these four: site - search for a specific site; inurl - indicate that the search words should be part of the page / site address; intitle - search operator in the title of the pages themselves; ext or filetype - search for files of a specific type by extension. Also, when creating a Dork, yo

How to protect yourself from infection via email

 How to protect yourself from infection via email  Hey all, Sending spam with malicious attachments is a fairly popular way of spreading malware and infecting users' computers on the Internet.  According to various antivirus companies, the share of emails with malicious attachments is 3 to 5 percent of the total volume of spam traffic, that is, at least one in every 30 letters in the spam stream carries a malicious surprise.  Often, a malicious email can even be recognized by its name.  But it happens that a viral message is very well disguised and needs a detailed analysis.

Why users shouldn’t worry about ads on Telegram ?

In a statement by Durov(Product manager of Telegram) , he said  in quote " I read an article that cautioned users from switching to Telegram from other apps, because "Telegram is going to introduce ads". This is misleading for at least 3 reasons: 1. There will be no ads in chats on Telegram. Users who rely on Telegram as a messaging app, not a social network, will never see ads. Private chats and group chats are and will always be ad-free. As I outlined in December, ads are being considered only in large one-to-many channels (like this one), which do not exist in any other messaging app. So users ditching older apps for Telegram won’t increase the number of ads in their lives. 2. User data will not be used to target ads. We believe that collecting private data from users to target ads the way WhatsApp-Facebook do is immoral. We like the approach of privacy-conscious services like DuckDuckGo: monetizing services without collecting information about users. So if we introdu

Court Orders Telegram To Block Pirated Movies, TV Shows and Music

A court has ordered Telegram to block access to pirated movies, TV shows and music following a lawsuit filed in Israel. Local anti-piracy group ZIRA complained that the messaging platform does not properly respond to takedown notices, contrary to Telegram's claims that it does. Telegram is now working with rightsholders to implement the injunction. Last November, the RIAA and MPAA nominated popular messenger app Telegram for inclusion on the USTR’s ‘notorious markets’ list, claiming that the platform doesn’t do enough to combat piracy. A month later, the EU added the service to its own ‘Counterfeit and Piracy Watch List’, noting that along with other social media platforms, Telegram “lags behind” in respect of efforts to combat piracy. This opinion is shared by Israel-based anti-piracy group ZIRA. Last year, ZIRA – which represents local media companies – took its complaints to court, hoping to force Telegram to take a more serious approach to infringement mitigation. #tg #telegram

How to move all chats and images from WhatsApp to telegram for free.

Moving Chat History from Other Apps Over  100 million  new users joined Telegram this January, seeking more privacy and freedom. But what about the messages and memories that remain in older apps? Starting today, everyone can bring their chat history – including videos and documents – to Telegram from apps like  WhatsApp ,  Line  and  KakaoTalk . This works both for private chats and groups: To move a chat from  WhatsApp on iOS , open the  Contact Info  or  Group Info  page in WhatsApp, tap  Export Chat , then choose  Telegram  in the Share menu. On  Android , open a WhatsApp chat, tap ⋮  > More > Export Chat , then choose  Telegram  in the Share menu: WhatsApp for iOS  also lets you export chats directly from the chat list.  Swipe left  on a chat, then choose '…' >  Export Chat . Move Chats and Save Space The best part is that the messages and media you move don’t need to occupy extra space. Older apps make you store all data on your device – but Telegram can take up
