Roboo uses advanced non-interactive HTTP challenge/response mechanisms to detect and subsequently mitigate HTTP robots, by verifying the existence of HTTP, HTML, DOM, Javascript and Flash stacks at the client side. Such deep level of verification weeds out the larger percentage of HTTP robots which do not use real browsers or implement full browser stacks, resulting in the mitigation of various web threats: HTTP Denial of Service tools - e.g. Low Orbit Ion Cannon Vulnerability Scanning - e.g. Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner, Metasploit Pro, Nessus Web exploits Automatic comment posters/comment spam as a replacement of conventional CAPTCHA methods Spiders, Crawlers and other robotic evil You can find the first public version  here

A Microsoft lawsuit, unsealed earlier today, is responsible for causing government raids last Wednesday that lead to the downfall of the world's biggest spam network, Rustock. Microsoft's Digital Crimes Unit used information gained in its 2010 takedown of the Waledac botnet to work with the U.S. Marshals Service in locating and obtaining evidence from five hosting companies in seven U.S. cities. "DCU researchers watched a single Rustock-infected computer send 7,500 spam emails in just 45 minutes – a rate of 240,000 spam mails per day," said Richard Boscovich, Senior Attorney at the Microsoft Digital Crimes Unit, in a blog post. With approximately one million computers worldwide infected by Rustock, the botnet was able to send 240 billion spam messages in a single day. Symantec revealed in August last year that botnets were responsible for 95% of the Internet's spam, and that 41% of botnet spam came from the Rustock botnet. This means the dismantling of the Rustock ...

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is reportedly investigating a hacker ring that is targeting phones and computers of celebrities and stealing nude photos and other personal items. The probe stems from nude photos of Vanessa Hudgens that were recently leaked online, reports the New York Daily News.  According to TMZ.com, the federal investigators met Hudgens Wednesday to discuss her latest nude photo scandal and believe she might be the latest victim of a notorious hacker crew that has targeted scores of celebrities, including Scarlett Johansson, Ali Larter, Busy Philipps and Miley Cyrus. A source told the website that one ringleader had fingerprints on every job and the primary motivation appeared to be the thrill and challenge - not money. The new round of Hudgens' photos surfaced on the Internet Monday after similar full-frontal nudes appeared online in 2007 and 2009. Hudgens, 22, is seen kissing 'Zoey 101' actress Alexa Nikolas in one of the new photos. ...

Top security firm RSA Security revealed on Thursday that it's been the victim of an "extremely sophisticated" hack. The company said in a note posted on its website that the intruders succeeded in stealing information related to the company's SecurID two-factor authentication products. SecurID adds an extra layer of protection to a login process by requiring users to enter a secret code number displayed on a keyfob, or in software, in addition to their password. The number is cryptographically generated and changes every 30 seconds. "While at this time we are confident that the information extracted does not enable a successful direct attack on any of our RSA SecurID customers," RSA wrote on its blog, "this information could potentially be used to reduce the effectiveness of a current two-factor authentication implementation as part of a broader attack. We are very actively communicating this situation to RSA customers and providing immediate steps for them to take to strengthen thei...
