Tor Users Targeted With Firefox Zero-Day Exploit

November 30, 2016 by Arkadiy Kantor Leave a Comment

Since we had a brief discussion about TOR last class I thought this article was interesting. It talks about a Zero-Day exploit that propagated on the TOR network. It took advantage of a FireFox exploit and was very similar to one that the FBI has used in the past. Unfortunately these are older vulnerabilities that have still not been patched up. But the point is that TOR is a probably not ideal for people seeking privacy or secure web browsing.

Shareholders sue companies for lying about breaches

October 31, 2016 by Arkadiy Kantor 1 Comment

This is an interesting twist on disclosing breaches. This can become an interesting conflict for an organization that may need to contain a breach for various reasons while also having an obligation to its shareholders to share the conditions of the organization. This article mentions the most reason case of the pending merger of Verizon and Yahoo. Since Yahoo had just recently disclosed that it had suffered a massive breach it may have a huge financial impact on Yahoo which Verizon did not account for when making an offer.
