Apr 30, 2011
ICANN Hires Def Con Founder Jeff Moss as Security Chief ! Jeff Moss, the hacker better known as " The Dark Tangent ," has been named Vice President and Chief Security Officer of ICANN, the non-profit corporation that manages the Internet's names and numbering infrastructure. He is the founder of DEF CON, the world's largest conference for hackers, as well as the Black Hat security conference. A phone phreaker in his youth, Moss has recently worked as a white hat hacker, working to secure networks from attack. "He has the in-depth insider's knowledge that can only come from fighting in the trenches of the on-going war against cyber threats," said ICANN president Rod Beckstrom in a statement. Moss is well known for having created the game "Spot the Fed" in which a hacker who thinks he's identified an undercover federal agent in the crowd at DEF CON can point him out, make his case, and if the crowd agrees, take home a coveted "I Spotted The Fed at DEF CON" t-shirt.

Apr 30, 2011
Dslreports.com hacked , Over 9000 accounts compromised ! DSL Reports - the information and review site on high speed Internet services which operates over 200 forums - has been hit with a blind SQL injection attack, which resulted in the compromise of at least 9000 accounts. Founder Justin Beech posted a notification about the intrusion on the forum dedicated to the site, in which he specified that no login names, zip codes and private posts were compromised. The attack went on for four hours on Wednesday and it was blocked before it had completed more than 8% of its work. All the same, the attackers managed to obtain a large number of email/password pairs. "The ones they obtained were basically random. So they cover the entire 10 year history of the membership but sprinkled randomly. Some are very old accounts, some are new accounts, some inactive or deleted," says Beech. "I identified the newest accounts, those that were obtained and have logged in over the ...

US Congress wants answers from Sony on PlayStation hack ! A U.S. congressional committee has asked Sony Computer Entertainment to explain several issues surrounding the massive potential leak of information on customers of its PlayStation Network. The network, which serves as an e-commerce and online gaming platform for the PlayStation 3, has been offline for more than a week after Sony discovered an intruder broke through its cyberdefenses and into the network. The service remains unavailable and Sony has warned its 77 million subscribers that their personal information may have been leaked, including, potentially, credit card numbers. A subcommittee of the House of Representatives' Committee on Energy and Commerce sent a letter to Sony on Friday that seeks answers to many of the same questions that Sony's users have about the attack and the company's response. Chief among those is Sony's apparent slowness in taking the network offline and informing customers....
