Hacking Team 0-Day Shows Widespread Dangers Of All Offense, No Defense

"The Hacking Team is composed of hackers and security engineers working for the government. They have access to highly confidential data and they likely have a target on their back," says Darren Guccione, CEO of Keeper Security."Despite whether these passwords were currently in-use or the cause of the breach, reusing the same passwords or using weak passwords is a serious cause for concern for a team of government security experts and hackers."http://www.darkreading.com/attacks-breaches/hacking-team-zero-day-shows-wide-spread-dangers-of-all-o...

Hi Stephanie
Well the engineers came and checked the line and could not see any issue with it.
The replacement hub that I had used to narrow down the issue was then rebooted and wouldn't sync so they tried their test hub and that worked. I was asked to put my origonal hub back on, the one I had removed some weeks ago as part of trying to diagnose this fault, and that worked so before leaving I was told that they would:
- Send out a replacement hub just in case.
- Recommend a lift a shift or rebuild of software to Wholesale. Though they did state that Wholesale might not do this as they could find no fault.
About an hour later the hub rebooted and I had 5.2Mb sync rate, 4.5Mb throughput and a SN margin of 18/6. This is as fast as it as the line has ever been. I'm not sure what was done at the exchange as I didn't get an update.
Sadly later that night whilst wtching something on Vision the video stream stalled and I got the same issues again in that the SN margin went down to this time 18/4.0 with lots of errors/loss of input/signal. This morning the sync speed is down to about 4.2Mb and throughput 1.94Mb and the SN margin is 18/9.
So no further forward really.
So either I've got 2 faulty hubs..unlikely though I suppose possible
The DSLAM was not lift and shifted or the software rebuilt as no fault could be found.
If the lift and shift or rebuild hasn't been done then can this be progressed?
The only other thing is that my line is permanently in fast mode due to previous attempts by BT to resolve isssue with my Vision service when it was in  Interleave mode. I suppose this could also be contributing to the issues?
I really do need this sorting and as I say I have another ADSL service in to the house and that is rock solid and sync's at over 5-6Mb.

  • Interview with David Vincenzetti, CEO of Hacking Team

    Interview with Business InsiderNot as much in depth as I'd hoped it would be, but worth a look. I like how he skirts the question on if they disclose zero-day info to the vendors. "BI: As I understand it, finding hackable software flawsis core to your business, do you ever disclose any of the security vulnerabilities you find to vendors?DV: Zero day vulnerabilities are not core to Hacking Team’s business. The core is providing a system to law enforcement that allows surveillance in the digital space.Essential to that is a process of continuous updates to the software to assure that it can be operated securely. Zero day exploits are only one way in which clients may choose to deploy Hacking Team software."

    SEOUL: Samsung Electronics is bringing forward the launch of a key premium smartphone model, a person familiar with the matter told Reuters, as the South Korean tech giant seeks to revive sales after a sluggish second quarter.The world's top smartphone maker will launch a new version of its Galaxy Note phablet in mid-August, the person said, declining to be identified due to the sensitivity of the matter. Previous versions, such as the Note 3 and 4, typically launched in September.A Samsung spokeswoman declined to comment.The mid-August launch will likely put the new Note smartphone model on the market ahead of arch-rival Apple's next iPhones. The US company is preparing for its largest initial production run for new phones so far by the end of the year, the Wall Street Journal reported earlier this week...Read More

  • Trying to get team planner to show more information

    Is there any way to get team planner to show more information about the tasks? In calendar view, you can set the bars to display all sorts of information, but I can't seem to find the equivalent in Team planner. I want the bars to display, hours work and
    one custom field, as well as the task name.
    On this subject, I'm sure I must be missing something, but project seems to have missed the point of breaking tasks down into manageable sections. For example, I have a project, say 'Build house', summary tasks might be 'build conservatory', 'build kitchen'.
    Each might have 'put in windows', the first task of which might be to get quotes. All that then appears in team planner, or any of the resource management views is the task name 'get quote', with no idea which summary task it belongs to. I have to write the
    correct summary task in a custom field for each task, surely this can't be the best way to do it?

    Hi,
    The good news is that the resouce usage view has a field called Task Summary Name, so no need for a custom field.
    The bad news is that yes, you cannot modify the Team Planner view.
    Hope this helps,

  • HT5731 I bought a full season of a TV show. I downloaded all episodes. When I go into my iTunes library, select the episodes I get a message of: This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. I can't for the life of me get the TV show to play.

    I bought a full season of a TV show. I downloaded all episodes, I went to my  iTunes library, selected the episode I wanted to watch. I got this message: This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. I can't for the life of me get the TV shows to play. I went on iTunes and when to my purchases. Clicked on the episodes and the same message popped up. How do I get these to play? I also see my download box with an error message saying it has paused the download. I click unpause and it just pauses again. I have been able to get one of the episodes to play once through, but now it gives me the same message.

    It's been months, so you may not care anymore, but you can't download songs from multiple Apple IDs over a 90 days period.  Sorry, it's not allowed for legal reasons.

  • TS3274 My App Store shows 3 updates but when I go to it the screen is blank. It will not give me the option to update all or one at a time, it doesn't show the apps at all.

    My App Store shows 3 updates but when I go to it the screen is blank. It will not give me the option to update all or one at a time, it doesn't show the apps at all.

    Many people are having this problem for the last couple of days. This is a problem that Apple has to fix. If you look around the forum, you will see many, many discusssions about this and they have been going on for a few days.
    According to Fly150 in another discussion, this is a workaround - for the time being.
    If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
    1. Go to App Store
    2. Select Purchased
    3. Select All
    4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
    5. Select update on the Apps
    This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store.

  • Outlook 2010 duplicates mail with setting Leave mail on sever, Delete After n days and pressing Send/Receive All folders

    The setting Leave mail on the server and Delete after n days and Pressing Send/Receive all folders causes outlook 2010 to duplicate all mails of the last n days over and over again.
    If I leave outlook 2010 open this problem does not occur, mail will be retreived without a problem. If I leave Outlook 2010 open for a long time and then press Send/Receive all folders it does work ok. If I restart Outlook 2010 and then press Send/Receive
    all folders the problem occurs.
    The pst file is a new one. OTher mail accounts that do have Leave mail on the server but not Remove after n days do not have the duplicating behaviour.
    I have manually removed 6400 duplicate mails, if Microsoft does not solve this urgent problem soon I need to remove Office 2010 from my computer and go back to Office 2007, Office 2007 worked fine for me.
    Is there a solution fir this problem, or a free tool to remove all duplicates?

    Dear Pieter,
    I suggest creating a new Outlook profile, and create the problematic account in the new profile, to see if the problem occurs.
    Here are the detailed steps on how to create a new profile to test this issue
    ==============
    1.    Exit
    Outlook.
    2.    Go to
    Start > Control Panel, click or double-click
    Mail.
    Mail appears in different Control Panel locations depending upon the version of the Microsoft Windows operating system, Control Panel view selected,
    and whether a 32- or 64-bit operating system or version of Outlook is installed.
    The easiest way to locate
    Mail is to open Control Panel in Windows, and then in the
    Search box at the top of window, type Mail. In
    Control Panel for Windows XP, type Mail in the
    Address box.
    Note    The Mail icon appears after Outlook starts for the first time.
    The title bar of the Mail Setup dialog box contains the name of the current profile. To select a different existing profile, click Show Profiles, select
    the profile name, and then click Properties.
    3.    Click
    Show Profiles. Choose Prompt for a profile to be used.
    4.    Click
    Add.
    5.    Type a name for the profile, and then click
    OK. Please also follow the onscreen instructions to create the email account in this profile.
    6.    Start
    Outlook, and choose this new profile.
    If this problem does not occur in the new Outlook profile, the old Outlook is corrupted. We can delete that and use a new Outlook profile.
    Please take your time to try the suggestions and let me know the results at your earliest convenience. If anything is unclear or if there is anything
    I can do for you, please feel free to let me know.
    Best Regards,
    Sally Tang

  • Making sure website shows up perfectly in all browsers in html

    Hello everybody,
    I want to show in an Iview all documents of an user of the whole portal, not only the documents under his folder /userhome/Personal Documents
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance
    Guillermo.

    ... and of course I have to add that this can be done with very few programming (but with that - with much more possibilities) by using a redirect "proxy iView", which is described in detail (and is taking just this scenario as one use case among others) on the slides of my TechEd presentation "Implementing Dynamic iView Properties", at least available for TechEd visitors now.
    On the other hand, searching for "proxy iView" on SDN will return different results where at least I have described the basic idea.
    Hope it helps, too,
