But researchers at eEye Digital Security found a file format vulnerability in Microsoft Office Publisher 2007 , which could be exploited to let an outsider ...

Why You Need to Change Your Broadband Router Password In this article, Sid Stamm, Zulfikar Ramzan, and Markus Jakobsson have developed a clever, and potentially devastating, attack against home routers. If you are using these mentioned routers in your office, it's time to change that default password. So how does it work? First, the attacker creates a web page containing a simple piece of malicious JavaScript code. When the page is viewed, the code makes a login attempt into the user's home broadband router, and then attempts to change its DNS server settings to point to an attacker-controlled DNS server. Once the user's machine receives the updated DNS settings from the router (after the machine is rebooted) future DNS requests are made to and resolved by the attacker's DNS server. And then the attacker basically owns the victim's web connection. The main condition for the attack to be successful is that the attacker can guess the router password. This i...

Is Your Business Safe From Internet Security Threats? Spyware, malware, viruses, unauthorized network access, weak passwords and hacker attacks can be devastating to small businesses. Here's how to protect your company from internet security threats. Keeping your networks secure and your data safe is critical to the success of your business. Which is why I always emphasize on attacking costs and complexities in implementing network security solutions that works without you having to painfully administer it. Most small-medium business owners assume that large corporations are far more vulnerable to Internet security threats than they are. In reality, however, it's often the other way around! For example, the destructive Mydoom worm affected one out of three small and mid-sized businesses--but only one out of six large enterprises, according to the Internet Security Alliance , a non-profit organization that provides a forum for information security issues. Because they have a f...

Helix Nebula Dust from comets that survived the death of their star is clouding the "eye" of the distant Helix nebula, reveals this image from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope released on February 12. The nebula, which lies about 700 light-years from Earth, is the colorful remnant of a dying sunlike star that cast off its outer layers to become a white dwarf. Similar nebulae litter our galaxy, but the Helix nebula is now among the few known to show evidence of cosmic survivors. A haze of red around the dead star at the center of the formation is most likely being caused by dust from colliding comets, NASA scientists concluded. Full story here .
