Google is rolling out a redesign of its Gmail service, but federal cyber security authorities are voicing concerns over one particular new feature.

Phishing emails are on the rise and can have devastating results, including unauthorized purchases, the stealing of funds, or identify theft. It occurs when an attacker, masquerading as a trusted entity, dupes a victim into opening an email, instant message, or text message. The recipient is then tricked into clicking

Today, the Japan Times reported that dozens of networked Canon surveillance cameras throughout Japan had been hacked. Limited information is available, but it appears surveillance for nursing homes to waterways and other public areas were completely taken offline by the hackers and the cameras were rendered useless. When installing camera

Windows recently rushed out security patches to fix their operating system, creating even more headaches for their customers. It’s no wonder most customers are switching to cloud-based services where they don’t have to worry about these issues. Anyone running a video management system (VMS) on Windows Server @008 R2 or

The SamSam ransomware virus hit the Colorado Department of Transportation for the second time.

Introduction Spectre and Meltdown are most egregious in the case of arbitrary third-party code execution, such as in shared-tenancy situations (e.g. cloud service providers like AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud) or in desktop operating systems. This, in short, iswhy these vulnerabilities are so scary to companies like Amazon since

Equifax, het kredietrapportagebedrijf, heeft zojuist het ernstige datalek in de geschiedenis meegemaakt. Dit lek bracht gevoelige gegevens naar buiten, waaronder informatie en adressen van de sociale verzekering van wel 143 miljoen Amerikanen. Dit is het ernstige datalek in de geschiedenis omdat het voor het eerst geboortedata, burgerservicenummers en rijbewijsnummers betrof.

In juli 2017 ontdekten cyberbeveiligingsonderzoekers een ernstige fout, die ze “Devil’s Ivy” noemden, welke in bijna alle camera’s bestaat die de populaire ONVIF-specificatie ondersteunen. Door de fout kunnen hackers de volledige controle krijgen over camera’s die ONVIF-compatibel zijn. De meeste merken en modellen camera’s zijn kwetsbaar, inclusief camera’s van topkwaliteit.

Een recentelijk ontdekt beveiligingslek met de naam “Devil’s Ivy” zal naar verwachting miljoenen camera’s aantasten die het ONVIF-protocol ondersteunen. Het eerste misbruik werd ontdekt op een Axis-camera en vervolgens ontdekt op 249 verschillende Axis-cameramodellen – maar het probleem gaat veel verder dan alleen Axis-camera’s. De kwetsbaarheid van de code zit
