I have been using this traffic generator tool called iframe-x.net on one of other site for some time now. The website is supplying malware as of yesterday. I was running their code and now google has reported me that, through my website malwares are being downloaded to the users’ computer without consent.
So that means, I have to clean my site and ask google to review it again. Till then my website will be shown as malware “This site may harm your computer”. Well that’s a bad thing to happen. so if you use this service and google hasn’t notified you about this, you better remove the iframe-x code from your webpage to avoid all the complications and loose visitors.
Here is the screen shot of the message shown:
if your website is already infected, you can ask for a review at google webmaster tools section.
If you are victim of identity theft, it could create a harassing situation for you. It is not only emotionally disturbing but also financially wrecking. However, taking prevention can save one from getting into the trap of it. Therefore, one should need to check one’s financial status regularly to get confirmed that it is well and good.
The easiest way to find that you are not a victim of identity theft is to check your bills. Whatever bills you are to pay either electronically or through snail mail, see that the amount is correct. There is no irregularity or any kind of capricious financial activity on your financial record. If you happen to come across any such item that does not belong to you, you must contact billing company. Sometime victims of identity theft discover that they have been charged on accounts of some banks or financial institutions where you do not have any account. In case you face this fact, you must contact the company and state that it is not valid.
Thieves may employ every sophisticated way to amass your money. They may come up unique ways to sneak past your secret area and obtain your debit car number. They may use it in an unauthorized way and make purchase with it. So, each month you need to look into bank statement carefully if you want to ward off the possibility of identity theft. Internet hackers are also very cunning and looking opportunity to break your defense to get access to your confidential information. You should take care of your password. You can change it frequently.

Here is a video created by g0tmi1k on WEP cracking with Aircrack-NG.
How does this work? – ARP beacon is needed (depending on the attack method), so this can be re-injected back into the network. To get this packets the attacker needs to disconnect a connected client currently on the network (if the attacker keeps on repeating this part, it will be a DoS to the client). Once the key beacon has been captured and enough data injected/collected, it is now an offline attack either by brute force or a dictionary attack. Then its just a question of waiting then the attacker will have the key (brute forcing WEP can be less than 60 seconds!) From here, the attacker can use that key to decrypt the captured data from before, and now is able to ‘read’ it as well as join the network.
Since the FIFA Worldcup is going on, this is the best time to spread the malwares. So the malware coders might have been working on very hard for this time. So its you guys who should be worried about.
If you are careful about a few things, you don’t have to worry about anything!
1. Everyone will be trying to watch the online streaming videos for WORLDCUP. But searching these things might cause you to reach the wrong page and it will be the last thing you will ever want. Some websites will be loaded with lots of malwares while some other will be loaded with porn. In both cases it could cause problems for you, especially if you are at work.
So if you reach some pages and it is asking you to download and install any missing codec, don’t download it. Don’t accept any files from that website. Most probably it will be some kind of trojan.
2. Now one other the most effective threat is by using emails. If you are getting any emails saying Worldcup updates or something similar to that, don’t download the attachment. It may be a PDF file. But it may have stuffed with some bad code, which can probably install some kind of trojan in your system.
First you will have to generate key on local machine.
For that type in the following command in a terminal. Here we are using RSA encryption.
ssh-keygen -t rsa
It will ask you for a password but you can leave it blank.
Note you could also pick -t dsa if you prefer DSA encryption.
Ensure that the remote server has a .ssh directory
Make sure the server your connecting to has a .ssh directory in your home directory. If it doesn’t exist you can run the ssh-keygen command above, and it will create one with the correct permissions.
Copy your local public key to the remote server
If your remote server doesn’t have a file called ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2 then we can create it. If that file already exists, you need to append to it instead of overwriting it, which the command below would do:
Now you can ssh to the remote server without entering your password.
Security
Now keep in mind that if someone need to login to the remote server, all s/he need is the file on your local machine ~/.ssh/id_rsa, so make sure it is secure.
