8.2.2007WPA is going the way of WEP, cracked in 15 minutes flat
According to
PC World the days of securing your WIFI network using Wi-Fi Protected Access
(WPA) may be over, as researcher Erik Tews will show how he was able to crack WPA encryption in around 15 minutes at a the Tokyo
PacSec Conference in two weeks time.
WPA was designed to overcome the insecurities in
hacked Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) which can be hacked in a few minutes using a modern laptop.
Erik Tews will be demonstrating how he
cracked the WPA encryption to read the data being sent from a router to a laptop.
To read the data being sent Tews found a way to crack
the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) key without resorting to using a dictionary attack which, security experts have agreed that the protocol
might be vulnerable too.
Although this is a big step Tews was still unable to crack the keys used to encrypt the data being sent back to the
router from the laptop.
If the demonstration lives up to its headline then the days of WPA look to be numbered. This would come as a big
blow to both consumers and corporations alike.
WPA is the most common standard of encryption in uses but, there is also a newer more
secure standard WPA2, (which uses Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and is unaffected), although support is still patchy. Consumer may find they are
forced to still rely on the now unsecure WPA encryption to connect their devices to the network.
For Business this is even bigger headache.
The TJ Maxx chain had hundreds of millions of customer details stolen due in part to the fact that they were still using the cracked WEP standard.
It’s easy to see a situation where hackers may try to do the same using WPA forcing corporate users to VPN or WPA2 dumping devices that
can’t support these protocols.

06.11.2008Jobs' Apple Makes Its Mark In
The Dictionary
LONDON - A "podcast"
is at once a portmanteau;
derived from the words
"broadcasting" and "iPod",
and a misnomer; neither
podcasting nor podcast
listening requires an iPod,
and no broadcasting is really
required. Even so,
portmanteaux and misnomers are
not precluded from appearing
in the dictionary; hence the
word's selection as the Word
of the Year by the New Oxford
American
Dictionary.
Even though society's
neologisms are normally
ephemeral--words die out the
minute better technologies are
discovered--once you're in
the dictionary, you're there
forever. Journalist Ben
Hammersley may have coined the
term, yet it's Apple Computer
Chief Executive Steve Jobs
that becomes one of those
rarities; a man so inventive
in the sphere of technology,
he has left his mark on our
language.
The
official term, to be added to
the online version of the
dictionary during the next
update early next year, is
defined as "a digital
recording of a radio broadcast
or similar program, made
available on the Internet for
downloading to a personal
audio player". ..

Apple gets in a mucking fuddle over iPhone dictionary app
In the latest twist of Apple's confusing iPhone AppStore policies, one developers dictionary application was rejected for "objectionable
content". Why? It contained swear words. In a blog post by John Gruber, technical writer and technology pundit, Gruber confirms Apple censored an
English dictionary. Matchstick software, developers of Ninja Words - a "really fast" dictionary, first submitted their iPhone application on May 13;
it was rejected two days later. According to Phil Crosby, one of Ninjawords's developers, "Our app was crashing on the latest beta of iPhone OS
3.0. We quickly fixed this issue and resubmitted." Matchstick did not hear from Apple again until May 30 when Apple rejected the application for
"objectionable content".

Google can crack passwords
A clever bloke into security research at the University of Cambridge computer lab wrote in his bog last Friday that he's discovered Google works
as a password MD5 hash cracker. Someone had hacked into his bogsite a few weeks ago and created a user account. After he quickly disabled the rogue
account, Steven J. Murdoch did some forensics work -- he's doing academic security research, remember -- and thought to figure out the
attacker's password.
Since his blogsite uses Wordpress, which stores passwords as unsalted MD5 hashes in its user database, he tried a
dictionary attack. That didn't find any match, even with numbers added to the ends of words. He then used a Russian dictionary, because shell code
that had been installed by the attacker had Russian in the comments. No word matchup there, either.
Murdoch writes that he could have found
or written a better password cracker. He could have varied the case of letters, added symbols to the mix, or used common substitutions of numbers for
letters, but he didn't want to spend more time. Instead, he turned to Google. He plugged the raw MD5 hash of the attacker's password into a
Google search and, voila, Google found him some matches.

"w00t" crowned word of year by U.S. dictionary
"w00t," an expression of joy coined by online gamers, was crowned word of the year on Tuesday by the publisher of a leading U.S. dictionary.

GPU-Accelerated Wi-Fi password cracking goes mainstream
The once thought 8 character length password may no longer be safe, after the GPU-accelerated password recovery attack can break weak WPA/WPA-2 PSK
passwords. The Elcomsoft Wireless Security Auditor mentioned that its software can work completely off-line and find passwords by analyzing a dump of
network communications, and display them in plain-text. The Wireless Security Auditor does require the source of a valid log of wireless
communication. Experts have urged IT managers to move from 8 character WMP passwords to 12 or 15, in a quote from David Hobson: "It's a
wake-up call to IT managers, pure and simple. IT managers should now move to 12 and even 16 character keys as a matter of urgency.

America to crack down on blogger payola
US regulators are to crack down on bloggers who fail to disclose money or gifts received from companies when reviewing their products. In the new
policy from the Federal Trade Commission, offending bloggers could eventually face fines of up to $11,000 (£6,900) per violation, according
to the BBC. So-called payola schemes have increased in recent years, with marketers realising the potential of encouraging bloggers and forum
contributors to produce reviews or testimonials on their products in exchange for money of freebies. Although the guidelines released by the FTC are
not binding by law, they are interpretations of the law that hope to help advertisers comply with regulations, such as those on disclosing
endorsements.

Google admits word database came from third party
Google has acknowledged that a
dictionary of Chinese words
used with one of its recently
released software tools came
from a third party. Google's
Pinyin Input Method Editor
(IME) " was built
leveraging some non-Google
database resources ,"
wrote Google China spokeswoman
Cui Jin in an e-mail response.
Google's Pinyin IME bears an
uncanny resemblance to Sohu's
Sogou Pinyin IME, which draws
search queries from the
company's search engine to
suggest characters that match
the Pinyin entered by a user.
On Friday, the Chinese
Internet company Sohu.com gave
Google until Monday to stop
downloads of its IME software
and issue an apology. Sohu
also wants compensation from
Google.
The
dictionaries used with both
software from Google and Sohu
shared several common
mistakes, where Chinese
characters were matched with
the wrong Pinyin equivalents.
In addition, both dictionaries
listed the names of engineers
who had developed Sohu's
Sogou Pinyin IME. A review of
the first version conducted by
Sohu's engineers revealed a
dictionary of around 330,000
words and their Pinyin
equivalents, including more
than 300,000 entries that are
identical with Sohu's
dictionary, said Wang
Xiaochuan, Sohu's vice
president of technology and
head of the company's
research and development
center. On Friday, Google
released an updated version
that removed the names of the
Sohu engineers, removed 600
words, while adding just one
to the dictionary. That update
did not remove Pinyin errors
but Sunday's did. " The
new dictionary is now based on
tens of thousands of entries
Google's enormous search
database has accumulated over
the years ," Cui wrote.
That claim was confirmed
Monday by Sohu, which said the
similarity between Google's
dictionary and its own
dictionary had fallen from 96%
to 79% with the latest version
of the software.

Even with Vista SP1, Hackers Still Crack WGA
The fact that Microsoft has relaxed its antipiracy mechanism built into Windows Vista concomitantly with the release of Service Pack 1 failed
to stop hackers from providing a crack for the latest version of Windows Genuine Advantage Validation. Various reports point out that Genuine
Advantage Validation and Notifications versions 1.7.69.1 (1.7.0069.1) and 1.7.69.2 released in March 2008, following the March 18 availability of
Windows Vista SP1 through Windows Update and the Microsoft Download Center, have been cracked.
The workaround is designed to be integrated
with pirated copies of Windows XP and Windows Vista in order to render useless the WGA Validation mechanism. According to the reports, applying the
WGA crack will permit users of counterfeit versions of Windows to access and download items from Windows Update, Microsoft Download Center and
Microsoft Update. The pirated operating systems with the cracked WGA will pass all validations on Microsoft's websites and offer anything from
updates to applications that are restricted to users of genuine operating systems only.

Happy Birthday Google (8
Today)
There I was using google for
my own personal search
algorithms, and noticed it's
now 8-years old.
History
Google
Inc. is an American public
corporation, first
incorporated as a privately
held corporation on 7
September 1998, that designed
and manages the Internet's
most used search engine. The
company has approximately
8,000 employees and is based
in Mountain View, California.
Eric Schmidt, former chief
executive officer of Novell,
was named Google's CEO when
co-founder Larry Page stepped
down.
The name
"Google" originated from a
misspelling of "googol,"
which refers to a 1 followed
by one-hundred zeros. Google
has had a major impact on
online culture. The verb
"google" was recently added
to both the Merriam Webster
Collegiate Dictionary and the
Oxford English Dictionary,
meaning to use the Google
search engine to obtain
information on the
Internet . - Source: Wikipedia
