For as long as I talked to a lot of technical companies specialized in the field of security and protection on the myth of online protection and privacy, which was not heeded by a long, leaving much of the data behind, and then start the policy assignment on lost and stolen and blamed technical companies this flaw or failure.
Some people may think that companies like Facebook, Google or Twitter is the first target because of its user base is too big and that up to a billion and a half just like in Facebook. But the intruder or Hacker pirate as he likes to be called does not differentiate between any company as long as there is a gap, a back door to sneak him raises instinct hack has without hesitation.
Beginning with the November surprise technical world news new hacking, news heroine but not leading technology company or trading name every day on the news, but the company could be considered technically innocent, is producing computers & Tablet PCs for children, Inc. VTech.
VTech leading company specialized in the production of tablets for children running perfect for ages, and entertaining content, assisted by using optimized commensurate with them.
Intruder refused to disclose his identity, but he admitted the deed and stressed that succeeded in penetrating the corporate servers is not love for fame or money, but to raise awareness and online security.
Broken tale began when he went to a company only to find that they still use Flash technology in system log, since the Flash technology of technologies that contain vulnerabilities, has already exploited one sneak to corporate servers and get root Root powers, technically get root powers on the server means that you got everything you imagine, imagine you are the owner of the original server and you have the right to do everything without having to encounter any problem.
Indeed, he began to collect data in and out, and also enables access to the databases again into the server to pull data and data for children and their families with complete names, addresses, along with some photos and phone numbers.
After collecting this data did not correspond with the broken company directly for it teaches that they will ignore him and you close the gaps without raising too much dust around its name, but has a big media messaging globally and tell editors that actually managed to collect millions of data, he stressed that he did not wish to sell or diversion and starred.
The magazine responded to his request and have a quick interview with him to hear what he wants, and he talked about everything with full transparency and how his story began and what you would like to access from this hack, so he wants to raise awareness of technical users first, and secondly, particularly companies that got root powers easily and effortlessly.
Published news magazine, and global media such as BBC, CNN, in addition to The New York Times published also led to spread globally and regionally very quickly not unthinkable, just like the news of the breakthrough one dating sites in September this year, too.
The message reached the company already recognized the existence of breaches on servers and some services stop working immediately to resolve the security problem before their return to work, either an intruder, he said simply that his role ended up here and move to the goals again.
The article may seem dull, dry or not intended, but I already did I write only till only one is raising awareness of digital online.
The beginning, a lot of technical news sites on a daily basis, but we don't care about them unless they are concerned with the problem between Apple and Samsung, for example, or if you type in the title tilt of one over the other, either otherwise not rarely reads, and is greatly shortened should be avoided completely.
If you're interested in the technical world, do not neglect anything, try increasing your circle of knowledge, new technologies, news explain because its launch and benefit from technology that precedes it, and enough of childish disputes about eligibility of Samsung or Apple or Google or Microsoft better title, nothing lasts forever, and every company with her epoch, it pros, and cons.
Last but not least, when Flash technology Flash on top, mentioned in bold because I want to focus on. Steve jobs since 2009, and denouncing the Flash technology and says it's filled with security problems, and problems with the treatment, but never matter, but described a smart Apple devices as stupid because they don't support Flash, a step taken by Google in Android, Google chrome browser, running on Mozilla's footsteps and stop Flash support by default, with the possibility of downloading on the responsibility of the user.
Flash technology, which is still a lot of Arabic and international sites depend on effectively ended, and there is no reason to use it anymore to move items interactively online, my language HTML 5 and CSS 3 in cooperation with JavaScript can do this job easily.
I'm not going to talk about Flash or other alternatives, but when reading the news talking about penetrating or big company stopped supporting anyone, we follow reason and technical support turned off manually, if necessary, for example, did you know you and activate your browser's Flash technology can exploit some loopholes that penetrative you hacked your computer completely without knowing that? Especially if you do not update to the latest version of Flash in your browser or added to the system. All this does not require you to anything, just visit the site displays ads uses Flash technology may be malignant and sneaking into your computer without knowing that, a problem experienced by Yahoo before, spreading malicious ads on some sites.
