Netherlands-based Rabobank down under DDoS attack !

Netherlands-based Rabobank down under DDoS attack !

May 03, 2011
Netherlands-based Rabobank down under DDoS attack ! The internet and mobile banking services of Netherlands-based Rabobank were crippled by a distributed denial of service attack yesterday. The attack sent the banking services offline but did not affect Australian operations, according to the bank. "Currently many of our clients experienced [difficulty] when using internet banking," the bank wrote in a statement. A large range of network traffic [has] to do with an attack in the form of a DDOS." The perpetrators of the attacks were unknown, and the bank has not said if they were behind a seperate DDoS attack in Feburary. A Dutch anarchist group called the Conspiracy Cells of Fire claimed responsibility for the Feburary attacks in a communique but the Dutch domestic intelligence service AIVD said the claim was a hoax. The bank has issued an apology on its Dutch website and moved to assure customers that account information had not been compromised.

Pentera's 2024 Report Reveals Hundreds of Security Events per Week

Pentera's 2024 Report Reveals Hundreds of Security Events per Week

Apr 22, 2024Red Team / Pentesting
Over the past two years, a shocking  51% of organizations surveyed in a leading industry report have been compromised by a cyberattack.  Yes, over half.  And this, in a world where enterprises deploy  an average of 53 different security solutions  to safeguard their digital domain.  Alarming? Absolutely. A recent survey of CISOs and CIOs, commissioned by Pentera and conducted by Global Surveyz Research, offers a quantifiable glimpse into this evolving battlefield, revealing a stark contrast between the growing risks and the tightening budget constraints under which cybersecurity professionals operate. With this report, Pentera has once again taken a magnifying glass to the state of pentesting to release its annual report about today's pentesting practices. Engaging with 450 security executives from North America, LATAM, APAC, and EMEA—all in VP or C-level positions at organizations with over 1,000 employees—the report paints a current picture of modern security validation prac
Hack your Sony PSP : ISO Tool v1.975 Released !

Hack your Sony PSP : ISO Tool v1.975 Released !

Hack your Sony PSP : ISO Tool v1.975 Released ! So I don't know if you're familiar with the latest version of Takka's ISO Tool or not, but I just downloaded it after reading about this "Fake NP data" feature. While I'm not 100% clear, mainly because of the poor Google Translation, it seems v1.975 can patch EBOOT.BIN game files, NPDRM'ing ISOs to appear as downloaded PSN content, letting you load 'em up … possibly without HEN or CFW? And that's what I'm not clear on. I've been playing with ISO Tool v1.975 on my PSPgo… I have a few legitimately purchased games from PSN installed; however, my PSP isn't "activated" (that's another story) and I can't activate it with PSN being down, thus I'm stuck with error 8010850F ("To use this content, you must activate the system."). But here is how it works anyway: Load up ISO Tool Press [Triangle] to bring up the SYS MENU Select "Make fake_np data File." Browse to and press [Cross] on a PSN-downloaded directory Select "Yes" to start the

USB Immunizer : Anti-Malware Tool Against Autorun Viruses

May 03, 2011
USB Immunizer : Anti-Malware Tool Against Autorun Viruses The USB immunizer is BitDefender's response to this growing issue. Autorun-based malware has been atop of the worldwide e-threat landscape, with notorious representatives such as Trojan.AutorunInf, the Conficker worm (Win32.Worm.Downadup) or Worm.Autorun.VHD. Have to agree on that, many of us get infected buy some silly malware simply by plugin in our friends or neighbours USB , DVD etc… Introduced back in the Windows XP era to facilitate software installations from CD-ROM media for non-technical computer users, the Autorun feature has rapidly become the infection vector of choice for cyber-criminals. The Immunize option allows you to immunize your USB storage device or SD card against infections with autorun-based malware. Even if your storage device has been plugged into an infected computer, the piece of malware will be unable to create its autorun.inf file, thus annihilating any chance of auto-launching itself. Th

( #SOE ) Sony hit with second attack, loses 12,700 credit card numbers ! Sony loses 12,700 credit card account numbers, 24.6 million accounts compromised Following up on this morning's news that Sony Online Entertainment servers were offline across the board, Sony Online Entertainment announced that it has lost 12,700 customer credit card numbers as the result of an attack, and roughly 24.6 million accounts may have been breached. The company took SOE servers offline after learning of the attack last evening, and today detailed the unfortunate results: "approximately 12,700 non-US credit or debit card numbers and expiration dates (but not credit card security codes), and about 10,700 direct debit records of certain customers in Austria, Germany, the Netherlands, and Spain" were lost, apparently from "an outdated database from 2007." Of the 12,700 total, 4,300 are alleged to be from Japan, while the remainder come from the aforementioned four European coun

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 : https://www.hackinthebox.org

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

Hacker posts screenshot of sex video on SPAD website ! The Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD) website was hacked yesterday and a screenshot of the controversial sex video allegedly involving a top politician was posted on its main page. Appearing on the website were two images, one depicting the alleged politician in the sex video and the other of Opposition Leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim after court proceedings, with the shots time-stamped Feb 21 and Feb 22 respectively. A check by The Star showed that the website, www.spad.gov.my was also inaccessible to users. Accompanying the images was an address link to controversial blogger PapaGomo (Powered by Papa Gomo www.papagomo.com) which featured clips of the sex video after it surfaced on online portal YouTube. It was believed that SPAD was the only government agency website to be hacked and defaced. The website was restored at about 7pm. SPAD chairman Tan Sri Syed Hamid Albar expressed surprise and regret that the
