DigiNotar said attack is to blame for certificate compromise

The business responsible for issuing a bogus Google.com SSL certificate revealed Tuesday that its infrastructure was hacked.

The breach permitted the "fraudulent issuance of public key certificates for a number of domains, including Google.com," according to the statement from Illinois-based VASCO, which owns the Dutch-based DigiNotar, a certificate authority (CA).

Once it detected the hack on July 19, DigiNotar revoked all of the counterfeit certificates. But now the company admits that at least one remained live, the statement said.

Morto using DNS for command-and-control

Morto, the first-ever worm to spread via Windows Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), is not only unique because of its propagation mechanism - it also uses a novel vector, domain name system (DNS) records, to communicate with infected machines, a Symantec researcher said Wednesday.

The DNS is a critical component of internet infrastructure that translates IP addresses into memorable domain names, such as SCMagazineUS.com.

Specifically, Morto uses DNS TXT records for its communication protocol, Cathal Mullaney, security response engineer at Symantec, said in a blog post Wednesday. Such records were originally used to allow text to be stored with a DNS record. Nowadays, however, they more often are used to store machine-readable data.

California blazes trail again with enhanced breach alert law

After being vetoed twice by the prior administration, a bill that updates California's pioneering data breach notification law was signed into law Wednesday by Gov. Jerry Brown.

Introduced by Democratic state Sen. Joe Simitian, SB-24 bolsters SB-1386, the nation's first law requiring companies to alert California residents if their personal data is accessed illegally. Since that legislation took effect eight years ago, nearly all 50 states have followed suit with their own versions.

The update, meanwhile, requires that breach notification letters contain specifics of the incident, including the type of personal information exposed, a description of what happened, and advice on steps to take to protect oneself from identity theft. The law also mandates that organizations that sustain a breach affecting 500 or more people submit a copy of the alert letter to the state attorney general's office.

Account takeover still common, but getting detected faster

Banks are still getting hit hard by hackers who take over corporate accounts, but financial institutions are doing a better job at spotting the fraud before any money is drained out, according to a new survey.

The report from the Financial Services Information Sharing and Analysis Center (FS-ISAC), released Thursday, polled 77 banks. Twenty-one said their corporate customers were victimized by account seizures, in which cybercriminals gain control of an organization's bank account, usually by stealing login credentials through malware or phishing.

Of the reported takeovers, 86 occurred in 2009, but that number rose to 108 in the first six months of 2010, the survey showed.

More insiders snooping into health records, says survey

Breaches into protected health information (PHI) are on the rise, and staffers are responsible for more than a third of the intrusions, a new survey has found. The "2011 Survey of Patient Privacy Breaches" from Veriphyr, a Los Altos, Calif.-based provider of identity and access intelligence, determined that more than 70 percent of organizations surveyed were targets of one or more breaches of PHI within the last 12 months. And, insiders were responsible for the majority of breaches, with 35 percent taking an unauthorized look at medical data of fellow employees and 27 percent peeking at records of friends and relatives.

The survey, released Wednesday, tabulated responses from 90 compliance and privacy officers at mid- to large-size hospitals and health care service providers who were asked online about their views of privacy and compliance initiatives within their organization, the adequacy of tools used to monitor unauthorized access to PHI, and the number and type of breaches sustained in the past year.
