Iowa State University servers breached, made to mine Bitcoins

Iowa State University servers breached, made to mine Bitcoins | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
From www.net-security.org - April 23, 2014 12:49 PM

Iowa State University has revealed yesterday that five of its departmental servers on campus have been hacked, and that Social Security numbers of nearly 30,000 of its past and present students might have been stolen.

The good news is that while that data was contained on three of the compromised servers, there is no evidence that it has actually been accesses and/or exfiltrated.

The University's IT staff believes that the servers were targeted not for the information they contained, but for their computing power - the attackers have apparently been using them to mine Bitcoins.

This article is very important because it effected so many people!  Not only the people that purchased items from target, but anyone who has ever had any contact information in the Target system. This has had a major impact on the business and the trust in their security system since the breach.People are definitely watching where they're spending their money.

Data breaches - over half are due to carelessness, says ICO | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
From nakedsecurity.sophos.com - August 15, 2013 11:47 AM
The UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) has announced that the majority of data breaches in the first quarter of 2013 were due to carelessness in the way that the information was handled.

 

That's according to the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) which says 175 out of 335 incidents it examined between April 1 and June 30 were due to personal data being “disclosed in error”.

 

Half of data breaches are due to people being careless with what they do with private information. How can we all help to reduce this problem?

Apple's Dev Center went down on Thursday causing issues for developers around the world. The system remained down for three days and is still currently unavailable.

 

This brings up an interesting question regarding single points of failure in the mobile application distribution system. When one component goes down, or is breached in this case it affects the entire ecosystem.

Cupertino finally gives an explanation for the extended downtime of its developer website.

 

After a weekend of outage and mysterious password reset emails, Apple has revealed the cause of the extended downtime of its developer website.

 

===> "Last Thursday, an intruder attempted to secure personal information of our registered developers from our developer website," Apple said in an email sent to developers. <===

 

While Apple claimed that the site's information was encrypted, and thus unable to be accessed, the company could not rule out that developer names, mailing addresses, or email addresses were not accessed during the incident.
