Inside the head of your company's cyber traitor

Unlock the Key to Repel Ransomware

You're at your desk, working to finish a project on a deadline when, all of a
sudden, your screen freezes and a dialogue box pops up to tell you that your
computer is locked and your files will all be destroyed if you don't pay up.

Apple iPhone jailbreak? STOP! KeyRaider is your worst iOS nightmare made real [u]

Don't jailbreak your iPhone or iPad. That's the stark warning given by some
commentators after a huge hack came to light. 225,000+ Apple accounts got
hijacked, thanks to the KeyRaider iOS malware from a Chinese Cydia repo...

The Web's 10 most dangerous neighborhoods

Wouldn't it be convenient if all the spam and malware sites were all grouped
together under one top-level domain -- .evil, say -- so that they would be easy
to avoid? According to a new study from Blue Coat, there are in fact ten such
top-level domains, where 95 percent or more of sites pose a potential threat to
visitors

Intel: Criminals are getting better at data exfiltration

Enterprises tend to be highly focused on keeping attackers out of their systems,
but most of the actual damage happens not when the bad guys first break in, but
when they're able to successfully steal data -- and the techniques they're using
to do this are getting steadily more sophisticated
