Panda Software Launches New Online Newsletter, CyberCrime Watch
Posted on: Wednesday, 21 June 2006, 15:00 CDT
GLENDALE, Calif., June 21 /PRNewswire/ -- Panda Software launches CyberCrime Watch, a new online newsletter that aims to become a key reference on cybercrime. The newsletter is available at http://www.cybercrimewatch.com/. The current malware dynamic, in which malware creators are motivated by financial gain, shows a significant increase in cybercrime. In the first quarter of 2006, 70% of malware detected by Panda Software Labs was related to cybercrime. This has led Panda Software to create an online newsletter on this issue, to give users the information needed to be educated on this problem and be able to face it efficiently.
The newsletter offers the most relevant news on Internet crime. The newsletter sections are as follows:
Targeted malware -- Visitors will learn about the latest malware threats and the techniques used to launch "targeted attacks." These types of attacks are aimed at specific, targeted victims and frequently use custom designed malicious code.
Rootkits -- The stealth capacity of most rootkits makes them an ideal tool for cybercrooks. Many creators of other types of malware, such as Trojans, are including rootkit capabilities in their creations. This way, they can go unnoticed both to users and security companies, and carry out their malicious actions for considerable periods of time without being detected.
Cybercrime Business -- Reports information related to criminal business models, attacks, trials related to Internet crime.
Blog -- A blog section will offer exclusive editorial content and will allow visitors to actively participate and post their comments and opinions.
Visitors to the newsletter can also subscribe to the free CyberCrime Watch e-bulletin, which offers the latest cybercrime news every week.
CyberCrime Watch newsletter can also be accessed through RSS. To do this, users just have to add the addresses for the different CyberCrime Watch sections to their readers, or click on the various buttons to add the feed directly if using services such as My Yahoo! or Newsgator.
