Awesome-Hacking/README.md at master · Hack-with-Github/Awesome-Hacking The Scrap Value of a Hacked PC, Revisited A few years back, when I was a reporter at The Washington Post, I put together a chart listing the various ways that miscreants can monetize hacked PCs. The project was designed to explain simply and visually to the sort of computer user who can’t begin to fathom why miscreants would want to hack into his PC. “I don’t bank online, I don’t store sensitive information on my machine! I only use it to check email. What could hackers possibly want with this hunk of junk? I recently updated the graphic (below) to include some of the increasingly prevalent malicious uses for hacked PCs, including hostage attacks — such as ransomware — and reputation hijacking on social networking forums. Next time someone asks why miscreants might want to hack his PC, show him this diagram. One of the ideas I tried to get across with this image is that nearly every aspect of a hacked computer and a user’s online life can be and has been commoditized. Tags: Scrap Value of a Hacked PC
10 comandos interesantes para Linux Los administradores de sistemas y usuarios avanzados siempre echan mano de su querida línea de comandos o terminal para realizar tareas de una forma más rápida y eficiente. Sin embargo, aún muchos son reacios a utilizarla porque creen que es algo demasiado complejo. A continuación, vamos a dar un repaso a una serie de comandos destinados a ejecutarse desde una terminal (incluso remotamente, sin necesidad de disponer de una interfaz gráfica), realizando ciertas tareas en muy poco tiempo y apenas algo de esfuerzo. La mayoría de estos comandos son programas que se pueden instalar facilmente mediante apt-get install (o el gestor de paquetes de tu distribución). 1.

Join the fight against phishing Transmit Data Through Sound: Quiet This library uses liquid SDR to transmit data through sound. This makes it suitable for sending data across a 3.5mm headphone jack or via speaker and mic. Quiet can build standalone binaries for encoding/decoding data via .wav files or for streaming through your soundcard via PortAudio. Dependencies Liquid DSP Be sure to work from the devel branchlibfec (optional but strongly recommended)Janssonlibsndfile (optional)PortAudio (optional) Build With the dependencies installed, run . Profiles The encoding and decoding processes are controlled by the profiles in quiet-profiles.json. Cable For cable transmission, use the cable- profiles. Ultrasonic The ultrasonic- profiles encode data through a very low bitrate, but the audio content lies above 16kHz, which should pass through audio equipment relatively well while being inaudible to the average person. Javascript binding for libquiet Javascript binding for libquiet allows sending and receiving data via sound card from any browser. Compatibility Usage
Security Tools Last week’s article about how to prevent CryptoLocker ransomware attacks generated quite a bit of feedback and lots of questions from readers. For some answers — and since the malware itself has morphed significantly in just a few day’s time — I turned to Lawrence Abrams and his online help forum BleepingComputer.com, which have been following and warning about this scourge for several months. This message is left by CryptoLocker for victims whose antivirus software removes the file needed to pay the ransom. To recap, CryptoLocker is a diabolical new twist on an old scam. The malware encrypts all of the most important files on a victim PC — pictures, movie and music files, documents, etc. — as well as any files on attached or networked storage media. “They realized they’ve been leaving money on the table,” Abrams said. Part of the problem, according to Abrams, is that few victims even know about Bitcoins or MoneyPak, let alone how to obtain or use these payment mechanisms.
¿Cómo vencer el miedo? | Psicología Positiva, es hora de cambiar tu vida ¿Quién no ha sentido miedo alguna vez? Él hace su aparición cuando menos necesitamos que lo haga, con tan sólo unos pocos minutos en nuestra mente ya puede apoderarse de nosotros y cuando nos percatamos de su presencia, ya es demasiado tarde y él ya tiene el control absoluto. El miedo puede ser experimentado en diversas ocasiones, pero sin duda la más molesta es cuando se hace ver en aquellas circustancias donde más necesitamos nuestro valor. “Roberto” en una de sus sesiones, me comentó que era el mejor de su clase, tenía una de las escolaridades más altas de la universidad. Era un estudiante ejemplar, un verdadero ganador. Sus calificaciones le ofrecieron varias oportunidades laborales, oportunidades que una a una fue perdiendo, siempre por la misma razón. “Lucas” era un conquistador nato, todo un casanova, siempre obtenía a la chica que quería, nadie podía decirle que no. Este miedo molesto proviene de varias fuentes, una de ellas es nuestra infancia. ¿Cómo podemos superar el miedo?

Técnicas sencillas para combatir el miedo y la ansiedad Todos sentimos miedo o ansiedad en algún momento, sin que necesariamente se trate de un trastorno psicológico, pero aún así son sentimientos desagradables que nos pueden jugar una mala pasada, como impedirnos rendir bien en un examen o entrevista de trabajo, o tener problemas al relacionarnos con otra persona. Estas son algunas técnicas sencillas y fáciles de utilizar en cualquier momento en que sientas miedo, ansiedad o cualquier otra emoción desagradable. 1. Conviértete en el observador . Consiste en observar desde fuera tu miedo o ansiedad, como si fueras un observador externo. Observa el efecto que produce en ti, tu corazón latiendo, tus palmas sudorosas, tus pensamientos surgiendo en tu mente, y todo lo que haya en ese momento en tu mente o en tu cuerpo, pero siempre situándote desde fuera, como si observaras la lluvia desde tu ventana. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Facebook’s ticker privacy scare, and what you should do about it Amongst the recent new changes to appear on Facebook, there is a "ticker" (a rolling real time list of what your friends are doing). Not everyone has received it yet, because it's on a staggered rollout, but millions have already seen it. You'll find it on the right hand side of your Facebook page, in the collapsible chat bar. It's smashing if you want to keep fully up-to-date with your friends' activity, but there is a problem with it. The ticker makes it very simple for you to eavesdrop when one of your Facebook friends says something to someone you've never heard of - and even see what the stranger originally wrote too. Testing shows that your privacy settings are working the same as they did before, providing you used them in the first place. The appalling enforced eavesdropping in the ticker (your friend said something to someone you've never heard of) is the result of the lax or non-existent settings of your friends, so here's the deal.. 1.

Pattern Matching Swiss Knife: YARA YARA is a tool aimed at (but not limited to) helping malware researchers to identify and classify malware samples. With YARA you can create descriptions of malware families (or whatever you want to describe) based on textual or binary patterns. Each description, a.k.a rule, consists of a set of strings and a boolean expression which determine its logic. Let’s see an example: The above rule is telling YARA that any file containing one of the three strings must be reported as silent_banker. Pattern Matching Swiss Knife: Installation Download the source tarball and get prepared for compiling it: tar -zxf yara-3.1.0.tar.gz cd yara-3.1.0 . YARA uses GNU autotools, so it’s compiled and installed in the standard way: . Some YARA’s features depends on the OpenSSL library. The following modules are not copiled into YARA by default: cuckoomagic If you plan to use them must pass the corresponding --enable-<module name> arguments to theconfigure script. For example: .
