Apple phishing scams are not uncommon, but phishing pages hosted on the website of a major company are certainly worth looking at. Experts have found ... “The mere presence of old software can often provide sufficient incentive for a hacker to target one system over another, and to spend more time looking for additional vulnerabilities or trying to probe deeper into the internal network.”

Distributed denial-of-service (DDOS) attack protection solutions provider Prolexic has published its Global DDOS Attack Report for the fourth quarter ...
“The prevalence of mobile devices and the widespread availability of downloadable apps that can be used for DDoS is a game changer,” explained Stuart Scholly, president of Prolexic.
Malicious actors now carry a powerful attack tool in the palm of their hands, which requires minimal skill to use. Because it is so easy for mobile device users to opt-in to DDoS attack campaigns, we expect to see a considerable increase in the use of these attack tools in 2014,” Scholly added.

The biometrics hacking team of the Chaos Computer Club (CCC) has successfully bypassed the biometric security of Apple's TouchID using easy everyday means. A fingerprint of the phone user, photographed from a glass surface, was enough to create a fake finger that could unlock an iPhone 5s secured with TouchID.
This demonstrates – again – that fingerprint biometrics is unsuitable as access control method and should be avoided.

A myriad of threats: * Employers often cannot assess data breach exposure on unmanaged BYODs *Lost or stolen BYODs that contain sensitive data, with less than 1 in 4 can be remotely wiped. * When BYODs bypass inbound filters normally applied to corporate devices, they’re vulnerable to malware and the list goes on and on

The number of bad bots has grown exponentially in recent years, driving poor internet performance for individuals and the loss of control over connected devices; wholesale theft of online intellectual property, content and data; unnecessarily high bandwidth fees; and compromised websites that are otherwise key to mission-critical functions. In fact, bad bots almost doubled as a percentage of all web traffic over the course of 2013, from 12.25% to 23.6%. And the number of mobile bots is up a staggering 1,000%.

A shake-up is coming to the mobile security industry, and it will happen when Google begins to secure its Android environment, David Duncan, CMO of Webroot, says. When you look at most of the mobile apps, you accept the application and its privileges settings, and there is very little ability for you to customise those settings, so you either agree or disagree. App developers are trying to monetise their apps, because remember, most of these are being sold for $1.99 or they're free, so the only way that they are going to make money is collecting and harvesting data, and selling it to a data house, who in turn is going to sell it to advertisers.
