Hackers exploit Bin Laden death on Facebook !

May 02, 2011
Hackers exploit Bin Laden death on Facebook ! A tip to the newbies starting out, reads a post from a man at the Black Hat World forums, now's a good time to make some money out of Bin Laden's death. The news is awash with reports about Bin Laden shot by the US and then buried at sea. Twitter and Facebook are full of either jokes, or ghoulish approval of the death of the international terrorist. One poster says it's time to monetise the reports, "NOW!" There are four easy steps, he says. Tap into the collective hive-mind of the patriotic American by starting a fan page, "something like Osama Bin Laden Dead - Rot in Hell". Next, invite people. Watch it go viral, you'll "probably get 90% USA FB users." Then, crucially, save it so you can promote a product later on. Source : http://www.hackinthebox.org

Source Code is the New Hacker Currency !

Source Code is the New Hacker Currency !

May 02, 2011
Source Code is the New Hacker Currency ! No doubt you've been paying attention to the data breaches pile up lately... but have you noticed a trend? If you wade through the hype and hyperbole, dig into the details of the most prolific intrusions in recent history you'll notice one thing that shines like a neon sign. "Source code" is the new hotness on the hacker market. It's quite interesting to see this evolution primarily because many of us are used to defending the 'endpoints'... because that's where the data is, right? I think we may be seeing a shift here. Much like the tectonic plates that cause earthquakes, there are some though-forces that are currently colliding deep under the surface and may cause certain mayhem. "There are no borders" For many years now, much like you I've been reading articles and hearing talks about how the enterprise attack surface is fractured and splintered -causing an ever-increasing opportu...
