Gandhi Auction : Vijay Mallya Wins Auction, To Donate to India - Misplaced Priorities?
I am not a great fan of Gandhiji's beliefs, but I do know that the man stood for simplicity. Gandhi is no longer alive, but he is still alive among us, say many. Gandhi's legacy is his high thinking; it is not material. The man preached and stood for basic human decency, the ability of each person to be good and to do good. For a man such as him, one of spartan habits, with not much desire of material possessions, would he care for the Government's efforts? Would he even put his possessions ahead of the people ? Would he actually say – go save my glasses, my sandals, and let rot the real heritage of India – it's people? I believe that the Government is missing the point.
But they went ahead full steam, missing the point as best as they could. As the "Times Now" channel so succinctly summed up, the GOI had a Game plan, and it was as follows :
- Buy items through direct bidding by the GOI
- Appeal to rich NRIs/American-Indians to buy and donate the items to India
- Negotiate/stop auction

Koobface Returns For Social Network Sitting Ducks
Social networkers, you've been reclassified. You're now sitting ducks, neatly corralled by the millions with six degrees of separation or less, and the infamous Koobface new and improved is using your friend as both decoy and digital bird flu carrier.

| Koobface Returns For Social Network Sitting Ducks |
Reportedly the fourth rogue app to hit Facebook in a week, the new variant of the Koobface worm that once before terrorized the network poses as a social network friend, profile photo and all, and sends a message with a link to a video. The message claims the recipient is in the video.
The link leads to a spoofed YouTube page, complete with video responses and comments listed beneath an unplayable video. A message on the video screen prompts the user to download the latest Adobe Flash Player, which is actually an installation of setup.exe, which is actually WORM_KOOBFACE.AZ, hosted at over 300 IP addresses, all of them hosting the file as HTML_KOOBFACE.BA.
Security researcher Rik Ferguson at Trend Micro discovered and revealed the new variant, which targets not only Facebook, but Hi5, Friendster, MyYearBook, MySpace, Bebo, Tagged, Netlog, Fubar, and LiveJournal.
"The worm connects to a respective site using login credentials stored in the gathered cookies. It then searches for an infected user's friends, who are then sent messages containing a link where a copy of the worm is downloaded. It also sends and receives information from an infected machine by connecting to several servers. This allows hackers to execute commands on the affected machine."
The sophistication and social engineering of the worm is pretty disturbing. Consider the line of trust barriers it breaks by impersonating trusted sources: a social networker's personal network on trusted social network, YouTube, and Adobe. In recent weeks we've also seen similar attacks on, involving, or spoofing users of URL shorteners, Twitter, Digg.com, and many Google services, including Gmail, Gtalk, Google Trends, and Google search results themselves.
Good antivirus programs should help detect and prevent installs, but also be wary of spoofed sites and fishy download prompts in the first place. If prompted to download Adobe Flash (and you don't already have it), for example, go to Adobe's website directly by manually keying it in and download from the official site.
DHL Spoofed, NYPD Goofed, And Cybercrook Runs For Office
Forget the Sopranos. In the 21st Century, the mafia is digital. But just like the old days, they focus on the shipping industry, corruption inside law enforcement, and political implantations.

| DHL Spoofed, NYPD Goofed, And Cybercrook Runs For Office |
DHL Spoofed
Shipping and delivery companies have become a major target of Internet criminals lately. UPS, FedEx, Western Union have all been targeted, either by spoof spam emails to customers or spoofing tracking pages themselves.
DHL is the latest target. Trend Micro has identified a spoof website that appears to be a DHL customer log-in page. Unsuspecting customers might provide their email addresses, their passwords, and their DHL account numbers.
It's easy to see why targeting shipping companies would be attractive to an online mafia-it beats knocking off trucks. In addition to valuable, phished data, orders could be tracked and intercepted, and user accounts could be hijacked for illegal shipments.
Proceed with caution and be sure to check webpage URLs.
NYPD Goofed
The New York Police Department showed it's still firmly stuck in the late 20th century. After a civilian employee swiped eight tapes containing the Social Security numbers and direct deposit information of 80,000 retired and currently employed cops, the NYPD had to send out embarrassing notice of the breach.
The tapes were stored at a backup data warehouse on Staten Island, but here is the big faux pas on the part of New York's finest cop data administrators: none of the information was encrypted, highly boosting the value of the information.
"This is 101 IT security as far as payroll and allied systems are concerned," said Michael Callahan, SVP of Credant Technologies. "Eight backup tapes with heavily encrypted data on them have a resale value measured in tens of dollars, whereas, with 80,000 identity theft kits on them in readable format, the value starts to skyrocket into hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars category."
Ukrainian Craziness
Think your politicians are corrupt? You could live in the Ukraine, where a convicted cybercriminal is the leader of the Internet Party of the Ukraine. Dmitry Golubov, aka Script, served time in prison for running CarderPlanet, a website "mecca" for trading credit card numbers and identities. His buddies convinced a judge to release him based on not strong enough evidence.
