China steals confidential data on the vulnerabilities of major U.S. dams

National Inventory of Dams(NID) contains critical information on the vulnerabilities of the roughly 8,100 major dams in the United States.

How do you destroy a Nation? Bit by Bit, this venerability information can bring devistation to the nations infrastructure. These breaches need to be stopped and all dams and criticle infrastructure should have Top Secret clearances to stop infiltration from within.

My thoughts are wake up America!

Poodle SSL 3.0 Attack

Poodle SSL 3.0 Attack

SSL 3.0 Has security holes according to the  Google team that affects all the major browsers.

The write up states "is really a critical threat because it is used by both websites and Web browsers and will remain critical as long as SSL 3.0 is supported."

How are they to fix this? this is yet to be seen.

The basic concept is that " in the decade old but still widely used Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) 3.0 cryptographic protocol that could allow an attacker to decrypt contents of encrypted connections to websites."

This could allow sensitive data to be exploited and used.

Kmart Says Card Data Stolen in Latest Retail Cyber Hack

“According to the security experts Kmart has been working with, the Kmart store payment data systems were infected with a form of malware that was undetectable by current anti-virus systems,” the company said. “Kmart was able to quickly remove the malware. However, Kmart believes certain debit and credit card numbers have been compromised.”

Kmart stated that they cant find evidence that personal data was stolen thus far. 

This kind of breach is new accourding to Kmart and the normal malware and anti-systems did not catch the breach.

Hackers are changing in my view and they know and anticipate security moves.

Kinda scary?

Simple hard to believe!!!!!!!

Have you ever heard of such a thing? I think JP is hiding something.

If you are a criminal you gain access for a reason,

JP might be telling the truth but I think something is missing.
