Passwords are a pretty fundamental unit of security, and we go on and on about them, from swearing by password managers to boosting for 2FA. Our most recent version of an annual survey, 2020’s Most (and Least) Cyber-Secure States, is a reminder to keep at it. It seems like some common habits—sharing passwords for streaming services, for example—can significantly raise our risk of falling victim to identity theft. We surveyed 200 Americans from each U.S. state, 10 thousand in total, about whether they typically shared or reused passwords for online accounts. Being mindful about password security is especially important as hackers prioritize phishing attacks. If one of your accounts is compromised by a well-designed phish, it’s fairly simple to cross-check those stolen credentials against a number of other popular sites. What starts with a shopping site login could lead to impersonations on banking sites, social media accounts, or other scenarios involving identity theft. Here are a co
A good article including an interview with Webroots very own Tyler Moffitt. by [url=https://threatpost.com/author/brian]Brian Donohue[/url] July 18, 2014 [img]https://d1qy7qyune0vt1.cloudfront.net/webroot-en/attachment/12880i3E1AE45A6AF4436C.gif[/img] [i]"However, Tyler Moffitt, a threat research analyst at the security firm Webroot, argued in a blogpost yesterday that the FBI’s claims are dubious and that [url=http://www.webroot.com/blog/2014/07/17/cryptolocker-dead/]CryptoLocker remains in use[/url]. In particular, the FBI’s belief “that Cryptolocker has been neutralized by the disruption and cannot communicate with the infrastructure used to control the malicious software,” overlooks an important reality."[/i] [url=https://threatpost.com/cryptolocker-ransomware-alive-and-evolving-says-researcher/107323]Full Article[/url]
I am considering the purchase of the new Surface Pro X tablet with the SQ1 ARM based processor. Does anyone know if Webroot is compatible with this new tablet?

[b]A trove of two million stolen passwords for Facebook, Twitter, email and other online services has been discovered by cyber security researchers.[/b] Unearthed by Trustwave and detailed on its blog, the collection of stolen data contains 1.5 million website login credentials for sites like Facebook, 320,000 email account credentials, and 3,000 remote desktop login details, among others. Researchers gained access to a server controlling an instance of the malicious Pony botnet, a piece of malware which infects users' computers then records the victim's usernames and passwords, which are returned to the cyber criminal and either used or sold on to others. Most of the compromised login details belong to Facebook, Google, Yahoo, Twitter and LinkedIn accounts, and - as is becoming increasingly common during such data thefts - the most commonly used passwords are the easiest to guess. The most common password of the two million stolen was '123456', while '123456789' was second and '12

The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) confirmed that car thieves are using dedicated equipment to access the cars and circumvent security designed by manufactures. While car theft has fallen from 318,000 in 2002 to 77,500 in the last twelve months ([i]source:UK Office for National Statistics[/i]), thefts involving computer equipment are rising. Modern cars allow keyless entry and ignition using a fob that the driver carries with it, keyle

I wish to recover a recently saved Powerpoint file but was blocked. The help alert suggests to turn off antivirus program and try again.
[b]Most of the computer viruses written in the early and mid 1980s were limited to self-reproduction and had no specific damage routine built into the code. That changed when more and more programmers became acquainted with virus programming and created viruses that manipulated or even destroyed data on infected computers. There are competing claims for the innovator of the first antivirus product. Possibly the first publicly documented removal of a computer virus in the wild was performed by [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernd_Fix]Bernd Fix[/url] in 1987. There were also two antivirus applications for the [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari_ST]Atari ST[/url] platform developed in 1987. The first one was [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G_Data]G Data[/url] and second was [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=UVK_2000&action=edit&redlink=1]UVK 2000[/url].

"Any unprivileged processes or apps can steal user’s fingerprints by reading this file," the team says, adding that the images
Hello Webroot friends!
