Global Botnet Smashed

Posted by admin on 6/Mar/2010 in Security Alert Log | 0 comments

Following up on the article link we published a few days ago “Three Spaniards Suspected Of Infecting 13 Million Computers Arrested In Spain” here is a link to a follow up article published on Australian IT.

Here is an excerpt from the follow up article,

SPANISH police said they had arrested three men suspected of building the world’s biggest network of virus-infected computers which hijacked more than 13 million PCs.

“This is the biggest network of zombie computers ever discovered,” the head of a Spanish police unit specialised in tech crimes, Jose Antonio Berrocal, told a Madrid news conference, using the term for PCs that can be controlled remotely by outsiders.

The “botnet” network was shut down at the end of December in a joint operation carried out by Spanish police, the FBI and two private information security firms, Canada’s Defence Intelligence and Spain’s Panda Security.

Spanish police said it was so big it could have been used to “carry out a cyberterrorism attack which would be much greater than those staged against Estonia or Georgia.”

CellTrust Corporation Announces Partnership Strategy with Healthcare Provider Portals at HIMSS 2010

Posted by admin on 1/Mar/2010 in Press Releases | 0 comments

Initiative Will Accelerate Delivery of HIPAA Compliant, Secure Mobile Messaging to Hospitals, Medical Answering Services, Pharmacies, Insurance and Pharmaceutical Companies.

ATLANTA and SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA, USA – March 1, 2010 – CellTrust Corporation, the world’s largest provider of SecureSMS for mobile phones (www.celltrust.com), announced today its strategy to partner with Healthcare Provider Portals to bring secure mobile messaging solutions to companies across the healthcare industry, by the third quarter of 2010. Ease of use and speed have made SMS the most popular communication tool on the handset today, eclipsing the volume of phone calls daily. But unfortunately, standard SMS is in clear text and is not encrypted, so it is not HIPAA-compliant. In booth #2317 at HIMSS, CellTrust’s Secure Mobile Healthcare team will showcase the company’s secure mobile healthcare solution, which turns standard SMS into a powerful, HIPAA-compliant tool, enabling healthcare organisations and vendors to communicate patient data via secure text messaging to clinicians’ and patients’ mobile devices. Over the next few months, CellTrust will work to integrate its SecureSMS technology into the existing solutions of the nation’s leading Healthcare Provider Portals.
