*** About the supposed factoring of a 4096 bit RSA key ***
---------------------------------------------
tl;dr News about a broken 4096 bit RSA key are not true. It is just a faulty copy of a valid key. Earlier today a blog post claiming the factoring of a 4096 bit RSA key was published and quickly made it to the top of Hacker News. The key in question was the PGP key of a well-known Linux kernel developer. I already commented on Hacker News why this is most likely wrong, but I thought Id write up some more details. To understand what is going on I have to explain some background both on RSA and...

*** On false alarms in detection of DGA botnet domains - part 1 ***
---------------------------------------------
Domain Generation Algorithms are often used in botnets to create specially crafted domain names which point to C&C servers. The main purpose of this is to make it more difficult to block connections to these servers (for example with domain blacklists) or to protect the C&C channel (and botnet itself) from a takeover. Often domains generated this way are composed of random ..

*** Google's April Fool's prank inadvertently broke their security ***
---------------------------------------------
As part of its traditional series of April Fools day jokes, Google used its own .google gTLD to launch a backwards version of its home page from the domain com.google on 1st April. However, this years joke inadvertently undermined an important security feature on Googles real homepage, which made it vulnerable to user interface redressing attacks such as click-jacking. This vulnerability would have allowed a remote attacker to change a users search settings, including turning off SafeSearch

*** Impacts of a Hack on a Magento Ecommerce Website ***
---------------------------------------------
Recently we wrote about the impacts of a hacked website and how it is important to give website visitors a safe online experience In this post, I'll show you how a hacked website results in almost immediate loss of money. We are not talking about drive-by infections that can be prevented by using a good anti-virus, updated software, and extensions like NoScript. ...
