NSA Targeted TOR Network With Malware
Posted by Brian in Comms, News, Threat Watch on 8/Aug/2013 13:06
From BoingBoing.net:
Initial investigations traced the address to defense contractor SAIC, which provides a wide range of information technology and C4ISR (Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance) support to the Department of Defense. The geolocation of the IP address corresponds to an SAIC facility in Arlington, Virginia.
Andriod Backup Services May Not Be Secure
If you use an Android device you may want to review how you store your settings and passwords.
From the Electronic Frontier Foundation:
If you have a recent Android phone or tablet, chances are you take advantage of a convenient feature to backup your application settings and wireless network passwords. This feature is enabled by default in Android 2.2 and later, and it can make switching to a new device or replacing a lost phone a quicker process. If you haven’t examined all the settings for your phone, you might not know if this setting is enabled.
