Arachni v.0.2.3 - Open Source Web Application Security Scanner Framework

May 23, 2011
Arachni v.0.2.3 - Open Source Web Application Security Scanner Framework Arachni is a feature-full, modular, high-performance Ruby framework aimed towards helping penetration testers and administrators evaluate the security of web applications.Arachni is smart, it trains itself by learning from the HTTP responses it receives during the audit process.Unlike other scanners, Arachni takes into account the dynamic nature of web applications and can detect changes caused while travelling through the paths of a web application's cyclomatic complexity.This way attack/input vectors that http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifwould otherwise be undetectable by non-humans are seamlessly handled by Arachni. The main focus of this release has been on distributed deployment and bugfixing.Main additions include the update of the HTML report to include false positive reporting functionality and an updated WebUI with support for multiple Dispatchers.

Infographic - The Sony PlayStation Hack

May 23, 2011
Infographic - The Sony PlayStation Hack We were doing an expose on the 'Sony Hack Fiasco' and realized no infographic was done on the subject - at least none we can find. Considering how big the issue was for our readers, we decided to create an infographic to summarize the events. Our sources include news site and commentary pieces. Because the subject matter is so time sensitive, we decided to include minimal information to the graphic and get it out when it matters. We will, however, be updating it with the latest information as it comes through. Source : http://www.creditcardfinder.com.au/the-sony-playstation-hack-what-it-means-outside-the-gaming-world.html

For those of Sony for encrypted version are used for more than five years several known security holes. 3.) Sony server running in part to the long-outdated software Apache 2.2.10. 4.) Current version is 2.2.17. The version used by Sony is vulnerable to damaging Internet attacks, such as overload attacks (DDOS). Outdated server software may have caused outage Allowing PSN hackers to enter PlayStation Network stealing more than 100 million user data sets from PSN and SOE.

Facebook Prepares to Launch Bug Bounty Program !

Facebook Prepares to Launch Bug Bounty Program !

May 20, 2011
Facebook Prepares to Launch Bug Bounty Program ! Facebook is working on setting up a bug bounty program that would encourage security researchers to discover vulnerabilities on its platform and report them responsibly. Mr. Joe Sullivan, Facebook's chief security officer, told us today at the Hack in the Box Amsterdam 2011 security conference that the company is currently testing such a system and hopes to launch it soon. Vulnerability reward programs are not new. In fact, they've been around since the Netscape era. In 2004 Mozilla introduced a bug bounty system for vulnerabilities discovered in Firefox, then last year Google did the same for Chromium, the open source project behind Google Chrome. However, it was Google that began rewarding vulnerabilities found in its web services first, a move that was mirrored by Mozilla a month later. Facebook has a pretty good relationship with security researchers already and many of them are reporting vulnerabilities to the ...
RKAnalyzer - kernel level rootkit analyzer !

RKAnalyzer - kernel level rootkit analyzer !

May 20, 2011
RKAnalyzer - kernel level rootkit analyzer ! RKAnalyzer is a kernel level rootkit analyzer and defender using Hardware Virtualization Techniques, based on the BitVisor Project(A VMM developed by Tsukuba University and open-sourced under BSD License). It tries to monitor kernel level rootkits' actions and log them. What differs RKAnalyzer with tranditional detection softwares(i.e. Rootkit Revealer, IceSword) is that RKAnalyzer actively intercepts rootkit actions, rather than reacting to rootkit after already infected. Also, RKAnalyzer support analysis mode, which differs from defend mode by presenting a much more transparent environment, in which rootkit would consider itself running without being monitored.
