RBN (Russian Business Network)



Europe.view | A walk on the dark side | Economist.com

ACCORDING to VeriSign, one of the world’s largest internet security companies, RBN, an internet company based in Russia’s second city, St Petersburg, is “the baddest of the bad”. In a report seen by The Economist, VeriSign’s investigators unpick an extraordinary story of blatant cybercrime that implies high-level political backing.

In one sense, RBN (Russian Business Network) does not exist. It has
no legal identity; it is not registered as a company; its senior
figures are anonymous, known only by their nicknames. Its web sites are
registered at anonymous addresses with dummy e-mails. It does not
advertise for customers. Those who want to use its services contact it
via internet messaging services and pay with anonymous electronic cash.



But the menace it poses certainly exists. “RBN is a for-hire service
catering to large-scale criminal operations,” says the report. It hosts
cybercriminals, ranging from spammers to phishers, bot-herders and all
manner of other fraudsters and wrongdoers from the venal to the
vicious. Just one big scam, called Rock Phish (where gullible internet
users were tricked into entering personal financial information such as
bank account details) made $150m last year, VeriSign estimates.

Plenty of other internet companies sail close to the wind—hosting unregulated online gambling for example. But according to a VeriSign investigator, “the difference is that RBN is solely criminal”. The pricing depends on the level of complaints. A discreet organisation pays little; one that attracts a lot of unwelcome attention, forcing RBN to take expensive countermeasures, has to pay more.

Despite the attention it is receiving from Western law enforcement agencies, RBN is not on the run. Its users are becoming more sophisticated, moving for example from simple phishing (using fake e-mails) to malware known as “trojans” that sit inside a victim’s computer collecting passwords and other sensitive information and sending them to their criminal masters.

A favourite trick is to by-pass the security settings of a victim's browser by means of an extra piece of content injected into a legitimate website. An unwary user enters his password or account number into what looks like the usual box on his log-in page, and within minutes a programme such as Corpse’s Nuclear Grabber, OrderGun and Haxdoor has passed it to a criminal who can empty his bank account. When VeriSign managed to hack into the RBN computer running the scam, it found accumulated data representing 30,000 such infections. “Every major trojan in the last year links to RBN” says a VeriSign sleuth.

RBN even fights back. In October 2006, the National Bank of Australia took active measures against Rock Phish, both directly and via a national anti-phishing group to which the bank’s security director belonged. RBN-based cybercriminals replied by crashing the bank’s home-page for three days.

What can be done? VeriSign has tracked down the physical location of RBN’s servers. But Western law enforcement officers have so far tried in vain to get their Russian counterparts to pursue the investigation vigorously. “RBN feel they are strongly politically protected. They pay a huge amount of people. They know they are being watched. They cover their tracks,” says VeriSign. The head of RBN goes under the internet alias “Flyman”; his uncle is thought to be a senior St Petersburg politician. Repeated e-mails to RBN’s purported contact addresses asking for comment have gone unanswered.

Companies can simply block access to any site registered at an RBN IP address. But that will not help most victims, such as those who receive infected e-mails. VeriSign says only strong political pressure on Russia will make the criminal justice system there deal with this glaring example of cyber-illegality.

The Conference Board Consumer Internet Barometer Finds More Consumers Are Filing Taxes Online

Consumer Internet Barometer - Economics - The Conference Board

March 15, 2006

Consumer Internet Barometer

More consumers are filing their taxes online and using do-it-yourself tax software, The Conference Board reports today.

Approximately 37 percent of consumers intend to file their 2005 federal taxes online, up from less than 28 percent just two years ago. Some 62 percent of these consumers have been filing online for more than three years, while only 9 percent are first-time filers. "Do-it-yourself" software has become much more popular and will be used by nearly 40 percent of filers. Most filers prefer receiving their refunds by direct deposit. Among consumers who filed online last year, nearly three-quarters chose to receive their refund by direct deposit.

Fewer consumers are looking directly to the IRS website to file their taxes. The IRS does offer a "Free File" option for some taxpayers on its website as part of its E-file program, but fewer than 19 percent of online filers intend to use this service to file their taxes, down from nearly 24 percent in 2004.

The Consumer Internet Barometer is produced by The Conference Board and TNS, the world's largest custom research company, and covers 10,000 households.

"Once consumers file online, they tend to stay online," says Lynn Franco, Director of The Conference Board Consumer Research Center. "The number of people filing their federal taxes online continues to grow with do-it-yourself software paving the way. This year, nearly an equal proportion of consumers will file online using tax software as will file online using a professional service."

The number-one reason cited for not filing online is that the consumer does not do his/her own taxes. In fact, the number of filers not doing their own taxes has risen from less than 30 percent in 2004 to 34 percent today. The second most popular reason for not filing online is that filers don't want their personal information on the Internet. However, the proportion of online consumers citing security concerns as a deterrent has abated over the past two years.

More Filers Are Using 'Do-It-Yourself' Tax Software

Among consumers intending to file their federal taxes online, about 40 percent intend to use a professional service, with women slightly more likely than men to seek assistance. The use of do-it-yourself tax software has made tremendous inroads in a short span of time. In 2004, less than 31 percent of male filers and only 28 percent of females used do-it-yourself tax software. Today, the software will be used by 38 percent of all male filers and 37 percent of females.

Among online tax filers last year, more than 72 percent chose to receive their refund via direct deposit and a mere 16 percent requested a check. Says Franco: "The turnaround time offered by direct deposit clearly makes it the preferred choice of online filers."

Consumers Still Uncomfortable With Online Banking

Nearly 52 percent of online consumers are extremely concerned about security when banking online, but the level has fallen from 62 percent in 2004.

At the other end of the anxiety barometer is the filing of federal taxes online. Only 43 percent of web surfers feel the same degree of apprehension about filing their federal taxes online. But more people are getting comfortable with this process. Just two years ago, 52 percent of online consumers were extremely concerned about filing online.

Women are generally more concerned than men about security when conducting financial transactions online. But the gender gap has narrowed and both sexes are less concerned today than they were in 2004.

"It is not surprising that we still see high levels of wariness about the security of banking and filing taxes online," says David Stark, North America Privacy Officer of TNS.

"Many Americans are alarmed by Internet scams and media reports of data security breaches. The easing up in concern levels is encouraging, however, as it suggests that consumers are not only more familiar with banking and filing taxes online, but also increasingly aware of how to protect themselves on the Web," Stark added.

About This Survey:

The Consumer Internet Barometer is based on a quarterly survey of 10,000 households. A unique sample is surveyed each quarter. Return rates average 70 percent, which ensures highly representative data. Data is weighted as well to reflect the latest U.S. household demographic information. The latest survey was conducted during the first quarter of 2006. For more information, please email f.tortorici@conference-board.org or lynn.franco@conference-board.org.

Lessons to Learn From Citi Data Breach

The blame is being placed firmly on the merchant here, (originally indicated to be OfficeMax, but now unspecified?).  This explanation seems all too simple, but perhaps it is that simple.

In order for this to be the case, the merchant would have to be storing:
a) PIN
b) complete replica of the mag strip data

I still suspect there is more to it, in what is clearly an inside job.

However, if that is all there is to it, then  ....

Relevance to Bankwatch:

  • Banks have to be accountable for the data that is shared with private networks, and merchants;  its unacceptable to blame all the links in the chain, because there are so many. 
  • Customers will (rightly) look to the issuing bank to protect their information
  • Technology allows for sufficient data sharing to complete a transaction, without sharing all the customers authentication credentials (e.g. public key encryption). Anything short of that is technological laziness

Lessons to Learn From Citi Data Breach
Yet experts say two important points to keep in mind when examining this situation are
1) the breach occurred at a third party, not the bank, and
2) this incident is not about PIN technology itself, but the way the data was stored.

"This issue isn't about the [strength] of PINs—it's about the
merchants and how they store this data," says Bruce Cundiff, an analyst
with Pleasanton, Calif.-based Javelin Strategy & Research.

Jon Gossels, founder of SystemExperts (Sudbury, Mass.), agrees.
"PIN wasn't the problem [in the Citibank case]. Having a card and
typing a PIN is perfectly adequate authentication," he says. "It was
the data that was stolen internally."

Some companies helped the NSA, but which?

Some companies helped the NSA, but which? | CNET News.com

This is the first in a two-part series. Part two offers a glimpse at the technical details of how the National Security Agency's electronic surveillance system seems to work.

Even after the recent scrutiny of the National Security Agency's domestic surveillance project approved by President Bush, an intriguing question remains unanswered: Which corporations cooperated with the spy agency?

Some reports have identified executives at "major telecommunications companies" who chose to open their networks to the NSA. Because it may be illegal to divulge customer communications, though, not one has chosen to make its cooperation public.

Under federal law, any person or company who helps someone "intercept any wire, oral, or electronic communication"--unless specifically authorized by law--could face criminal charges. Even if cooperation is found to be legal, however, it could be embarrassing to acknowledge opening up customers' communications to a spy agency.

A survey by CNET News.com has identified 15 large telecommunications and Internet companies that are willing to say that they have not participated in the NSA program, which intercepts e-mail and telephone calls without a judge's approval.

Twelve other companies that were contacted and asked identical questions chose not to reply, in some cases citing "national security" as the reason.

Those results come amid a push on Capitol Hill for more information about the NSA's wiretapping practices. On Monday, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales is expected to testify at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, and President Bush and his closest allies have been stepping up their defense of the program in preparation for it.

To be sure, there are a number of possible explanations for the companies' silence. In some cases, a company's media department could have been overworked. Another possibility is the company's lawyers were unavailable or chose not to reply for unknown reasons.

Also, some survey recipients, such as NTT Communications, responded with a general statement expressing compliance "with law enforcement requests as permitted and required by law" rather than addressing the question of NSA surveillance.

A lawsuit that could yield more details about industry cooperation is winding its way through the federal courts. Last week, the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a civil liberties group based in San Francisco, sued AT&T after a report that the company had shared its customer records database--though not its network--with the NSA.

AT&T would not respond when asked whether it participated. An AT&T spokesman, Dave Pacholczyk, said: "We don't comment on matters of national security."

The News.com survey, started Jan. 25, found that wireless providers and cable companies were the most likely to distance themselves from the NSA. Cingular Wireless, Comcast, Cox Communications, Sprint Nextel and T-Mobile said they had not turned over information or opened their networks to the NSA without being required by law.

Companies that are backbone providers, or which operate undersea cables spanning the ocean, were among the least likely to respond. AT&T, Cable & Wireless, Global Crossing, Level 3, NTT Communications, SAVVIS Communications and Verizon Communications chose not to answer the questions posed to them.

The New York Times reported on Dec. 24 that the NSA has gained access to switches that act as gateways at the borders between the United States' communications networks and international networks. But "the identities of the corporations involved could not be determined," the newspaper added.

At the water's edge
Analysts and historians who follow the intelligence community have long said the companies that operate submarine cables--armored sheaths wrapped around bundles of fiber optic lines--surreptitiously provide access to the NSA.

"You go to Global Crossing and say...once your cable comes up for air in New Jersey or on the coast of Virginia, wherever it goes up, we want to put a little splice in, thank you very much, which NSA can do," said Matthew Aid, who recently completed the first volume in a multiple-volume history of the NSA. "The technology of getting access to that stuff is fairly straightforward."

Aid was citing Global Crossing as an example, not singling it out. Global Crossing describes itself as an Internet backbone network that shuttles traffic for about 700 telecommunications carriers, mobile operators and Internet service providers. According to the International Cable Protection Committee, the company has full or partial ownership of several trans-Atlantic and trans-Pacific cables.

Global Crossing spokesman Tom Topalian said "99 percent of wiretapping is done at a local phone company level" instead of at backbone providers. Topalian declined to answer questions about NSA access, and added: "All U.S. carriers have to comply with the CALEA act, and Global Crossing complies with CALEA." (CALEA is a 1994 federal law requiring certain telecommunications providers to make their networks wiretap-friendly for domestic law enforcement, not intelligence agencies.)

Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., last month sent a letter (click for PDF) to companies including Google, Yahoo, EarthLink, Verizon and T-Mobile asking them if they cooperated with the NSA. News.com asked similar questions, but expanded the number of companies to include backbone and submarine cable providers.

Among the companies that responded, some offered far more detail than others. Les Seagraves, EarthLink's chief privacy officer, said: "We've never even been asked to give information without the benefit of a subpoena or a court order behind it. And our policy is to require a subpoena or court order, basically to require a court of law behind the inquiry."

"We're very interested in protecting our customers' privacy and balancing that with our duties to comply with the law," Seagraves added. "Our way to balance that is to definitely make sure we have a valid legal request before we release any information."

Comcast spokesman Tim Fitzpatrick said the company "will only provide customer information pursuant to a valid court order and only if Comcast's records contain information sufficient to identify the customer account on the (date or dates) listed in the court order."

A representative of Cox Communications, David Grabert, said: "Cox has never received a request for information or a wiretap that was not accompanied by a warrant."

NSA's history of industry deals
Louis Tordella, the longest-serving deputy director of the NSA, acknowledged to overseeing a similar project to intercept telegrams as recently as the 1970s. It relied on the major telegraph companies including Western Union secretly turning over copies of all messages sent to or from the United States.

"All of the big international carriers were involved, but none of 'em ever got a nickel for what they did," Tordella said before his death in 1996, according to a history written by L. Britt Snider, a Senate aide who became the CIA's inspector general.

The telegraph interception operation was called Project Shamrock. It involved a courier making daily trips from the NSA's headquarters in Fort Meade, Md., to New York to retrieve digital copies of the telegrams on magnetic tape.

Like today's eavesdropping system authorized by Bush, Project Shamrock had a "watch list" of people in the U.S. whose conversations would be identified and plucked out of the ether by NSA computers. It was intended to be used for foreign intelligence purposes.
Click for info-graphic

Then-President Richard Nixon, plagued by anti-Vietnam protests and worried about foreign influence, ordered that Project Shamrock's electronic ear be turned inward to eavesdrop on American citizens. In 1969, Nixon met with the heads of the NSA, CIA and FBI and authorized a program to intercept "the communications of U.S. citizens using international facilities," meaning international calls, according to James Bamford's 2001 book titled "Body of Secrets."

Nixon later withdrew the formal authorization, but informally, police and intelligence agencies kept adding names to the watch list. At its peak, 600 American citizens appeared on the list, including singer Joan Baez, pediatrician Benjamin Spock, actress Jane Fonda and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.

Details about Project Shamrock became public as part of a Senate investigation of the NSA. Telegraph companies participating in the program initially balked when questioned by Senate investigators. But documents turned over by the NSA "cast doubt on the veracity of the companies' claims that they could find no documentation pertaining to Shamrock," wrote Snider. "After all, this had concerned the highest levels of their corporate management for at least four years."

Another apparent example of NSA and industry cooperation became public in 1995. The Baltimore Sun reported that for decades NSA had rigged the encryption products of Crypto AG, a Swiss firm, so U.S. eavesdroppers could easily break their codes.

The six-part story, based on interviews with former employees and company documents, said Crypto AG sold its compromised security products to some 120 countries, including prime U.S. intelligence targets such as Iran, Iraq, Libya and Yugoslavia. (Crypto AG disputed the allegations.)

"Only a very few top executives"
The extent of the NSA's surveillance project in operation today remains unclear. Attorney General Gonzales has stressed that the program intercepts e-mail and phone conversations only when "one party to the communication is outside the United States."

In his book titled "State of War," New York Times reporter James Risen wrote: "The NSA has extremely close relationships with both the telecommunications and computer industries, according to several government officials. Only a very few top executives in each corporation are aware of such relationships."

Tapping into undersea copper and fiber-optic cables where they make landfall would be one way to create a virtual web of surveillance that can snare Internet packets or voice communications when they traverse U.S. borders. One benefit for the government is that one participant in the conversation is likely to be overseas--permitting Gonzales and the NSA to stress the interception's international nature.
In other news:

* Capitol Hill's fury on China
* Power lunching with wizards, warriors
* RSA coverage: A deeper level of security
* Open source's musical chairs

Another method would be to seek the cooperation of backbone providers with networks entirely within the United States. That could be done with a tap hooked up to the switches at a telephone company or backbone provider, said Phill Shade, a network engineer for WildPackets who is the company's director of international support services. WildPackets sells network analysis software.

"The tap essentially splits off a copy of the traffic--it would literally take a copy of all the traffic as it moves through the wire," Shade said. "Picture a capital letter 'Y' in your head...One copy goes back out the regular wire on the right side of the wire, and the copy you're interested in splitting goes off the left side of the Y to you. These are very common networking devices, used in networks all over the world."

The tap's exact location may matter. Sen. Arlen Specter, a Pennsylvania Republican who is convening Monday's hearing, has asked Gonzales to respond to a series of questions about the legality of the program. One question Specter is posing: If intercepted calls are "routed through switches which were physically located on U.S. soil, would that constitute a violation of law or regulation restricting NSA from conducting surveillance inside the United States?"

Who's helping the NSA?

CNET News.com asked telecommunications and Internet companies about cooperation with the Bush administration's domestic eavesdropping scheme. We asked them: "Have you turned over information or opened up your networks to the NSA without being compelled by law?"

Yahoo on NSA surveillance: No comment

Under cross-examination during a congressional hearing, Yahoo's top lawyer refused on Wednesday to say whether the company opens its records for government surveillance without a court order.

Michael Callahan, Yahoo's senior vice president and general counsel, declined five times to answer that question from Rep. Brad Sherman, a California Democrat who was probing whether the Internet company had cooperated with the National Security Agency's domestic surveillance efforts.

"It wouldn't be appropriate for me to comment," said Callahan, who was testifying under oath. He added that Yahoo would "only turn over information if it's required by law."

But Callahan refused to say whether a demand from the NSA--not backed by a court order--qualifies as required by law.

No law or regulation prohibits Yahoo from answering the question. In a survey published last week by CNET News.com, companies as varied as BellSouth, Comcast, EarthLink and T-Mobile answered in the negative. Rep. John Conyers, a Michigan Democrat, has posed similar questions to those companies, and AT&T has been sued for allegedly turning information over to the NSA in violation of privacy laws.

Sherman, who represents the San Fernando Valley near Los Angeles, is a Harvard Law graduate who was known as a stickler for detail while a lawyer in private practice. He's been critical of the NSA surveillance program, and said last week that President Bush's recent claims about terrorists planning to attack a Los Angeles skyscraper were a political stunt.

Video: Can the NSA look at your e-mail?
During a House hearing on Wednesday, Rep. Brad Sherman, D-Calif., asks Yahoo general counsel Michael Callahan if the NSA can access the e-mail of private American citizens.

Below is a transcript, edited for clarity, of Wednesday's exchange that took place during a House of Representatives hearing about China and the Internet.

Rep. Brad Sherman: Let's say you get a call from the NSA saying they want you to give them a copy of all my e-mails. Can I rely on your privacy policy that you're not going to give those e-mails to the NSA unless you get a court order?

Yahoo General Counsel Michael Callahan: We would only disclose information in compliance with law and our privacy policy.

Sherman: Does that include a court order or letter from the NSA?

Callahan: I wouldn't be able to comment.

Sherman: The attorney general says the executive branch, without any OK from either of the other two branches, has the right to read everything you have in your files about me. You might very well agree?

Callahan: It wouldn't be appropriate for me to comment.

Sherman: How can I be a Yahoo user?... If you tell me you'll decide later if a sheriff in some obscure county (that I've never visited can obtain access to my files based on a simple request?)

Callahan: We only turn over information if it's required by law.

Sherman: An investigation from some county that I've never been to?

Callahan: If we were served with proper legal process, we would have to give it.

Sherman: Sir, you're assuming the answer to the question and pretending that's an answer. I'm asking you, as the chief lawyer from Yahoo, is e-mail from some sheriff...is that a requirement that you would adhere to or would you fight it in court?

Callahan: That is not something we would provide.

Sherman: How about if it came from the NSA?

Callahan: (I can't comment on that.)

VeriSign Introduces VeriSign® Identity Protection (VIP) To Protect Consumer Online Identities

VeriSign Introduces VeriSign® Identity Protection To Protect Consumer Online Identities from VeriSign, Inc.

PayPal, eBay and Yahoo! To Join Shared Authentication Network As Strategic Anchor Tenants; Motorola and SanDisk To Lend Technology Support

MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA., February 13, 2006 – VeriSign, Inc., (NASDAQ: VRSN), the leading provider of intelligent infrastructure services for Internet and telecommunications networks, today announced the launch of VeriSign® Identity Protection (VIP), a comprehensive solution that will help provide identity protection for consumers who conduct business online. VIP is supported by several leading online companies, including PayPal, eBay and Yahoo!. In addition, technology partner SanDisk has announced plans to support VIP by manufacturing and distributing OATH compliant USB mass-storage and trusted flash devices, while Motorola plans to lend its support in enabling this technology on consumer mobile devices.

A recent report by the Federal Trade Commission found that 37 percent of all Internet Fraud complaints filed dealt with identity theft. Additionally, Gartner research vice president Avivah Litan noted in her report “Credit Report and Internet Data Theft Results in More Fraud in 2005” that of those surveyed, financial losses resulting from information stolen of the Internet was $2.7 Billion.

VIP is a modern approach to combating digital identity theft targeted for both consumers and online services that demand better identity protection without sacrificing the convenience of everyday Web lifestyles. VIP will allow consumers to use a single security device to authenticate themselves across any future VIP-enabled Web site of network members, such as PayPal, eBay or Yahoo!. VIP will make it simpler and more cost-effective for online companies such as financial institutions, ISPs or e-commerce sites to implement stronger authentication by leveraging a shared infrastructure and enabling everyday devices to become authentication devices.

VIP will take a layered approach to Identity Protection by providing a comprehensive set of services enhanced by network intelligence. It will include the following components:

o Shared Authentication Network: Operated by VeriSign, the VIP Network will allow online service providers and enterprises to accept the same VIP authentication credentials as other participating members of the network. The VIP Network will enable consumers to utilize a single, OATH-compliant strong authentication credential, no matter the form, across any of the VIP-enabled Web sites of network members.
o Multi-factor Authentication: The VIP Authentication Service is a flexible, easy-to-deploy two-factor authentication solution that will facilitate the management of devices distributed to end-users. It will be based on open standards defined by OATH, an industry-wide working group for authentication. These open standards will allow VIP authentication to deliver an unprecedented array of credential choices for consumers.
o Fraud Detection: Using advanced anomaly detection technology, the service will monitor and detect fraudulent login and transactional fraud in real-time to enable risk-based authentication. To catch known and unknown fraud, the service will combine both a policy and a self-learning anomaly detection engine. This non-intrusive approach will not require any change to a Web site and will remain invisible to the consumer until a fraud is detected.
o Fraud Intelligence Network: The fraud intelligence network, which VeriSign intends to make available in the summer of 2006, will allow the sharing of critical fraud data and signatures across VIP-enabled Web sites of network members. The VIP Fraud Intelligence Network will leverage VeriSign’s unique visibility gleaned from the operation of core Internet technologies.

VeriSign intends to add additional services in the summer of 2006 including the VeriSign VIP portal, which will allow consumers to obtain, for VIP-enabled authentication devices, first-level support directly from VeriSign.

In addition to VeriSign, PayPal has agreed to become the first device issuers for the VIP network. Yahoo! plans to join the VIP network as founding members and anchor tenants, enabling the use of VIP devices on any of their VIP-enabled Web sites. In order to deliver strong authentication devices across a large user base, VeriSign has also signed key technology partnerships that will embed one-time password algorithms into common, everyday devices. SanDisk intends to embed OATH-compliant One Time Passwords (OTP) into their mass-storage and trusted flash devices, while Motorola is endorsing VIP’s unique shared network authentication approach to protecting online identities and its proliferation to consumers.

“With the increase in both the frequency and sophistication of malicious online activities such as phishing and identity theft, a fresh approach is needed to protect consumers as they conduct business online,” said Judy Lin, executive vice president and general manager, VeriSign Security Services. “VeriSign Identity Protection will provide a new means to protect consumer identities, combining multi-factor authentication, a shared network of information and intelligence and actionable fraud monitoring. With our partners, the VIP service will provide end-users with easy-to-purchase and easy-to-deploy multi-factor authentication.”

VIP will be available directly from VeriSign, or through any of the service providers participating in the VIP Network. Elements of VIP, including strong authentication and shared authentication network capabilities are available today, with additional capabilities being added this summer.

U.S. Concludes 'Cyber Storm' Mock Attacks

U.S. Concludes 'Cyber Storm' Mock Attacks - Yahoo! News

By TED BRIDIS, Associated Press Writer Fri Feb 10, 4:42 PM ET

WASHINGTON - The government concluded its "Cyber Storm" wargame Friday, its biggest-ever exercise to test how it would respond to devastating attacks over the Internet from anti-globalization activists, underground hackers and bloggers.

Bloggers?

Participants confirmed parts of the worldwide simulation challenged government officials and industry executives to respond to deliberate misinformation campaigns and activist calls by Internet bloggers, online diarists whose "Web logs" include political rantings and musings about current events.

The Internet survived, even against fictional abuses against the world's computers on a scale typical for Fox's popular "24" television series. Experts depicted hackers who shut down electricity in 10 states, failures in vital systems for online banking and retail sales, infected discs mistakenly distributed by commercial software companies and critical flaws discovered in core Internet technology.

Some mock attacks were aimed at causing a "significant cyber disruption" that could seriously damage energy, transportation and health care industries and undermine public confidence, said George Foresman, an undersecretary at the
Homeland Security Department.

There was no impact on the real Internet during the weeklong exercise. Government officials from the United States, Canada, Australia and England and executives from Microsoft, Cisco, Verisign and others said they were careful to simulate attacks only using isolated computers, working from basement offices at the Secret Services headquarters in downtown Washington.

The Homeland Security Department promised a full report on results from the exercise by summer.

Foresman likened his agency's role during any Internet attack to an orchestra conductor, coordinating responses from law enforcement, intelligence agencies, the military and private firms. The government's goal is a "symphony of preparedness," Foresman said.

Homeland Security coordinated the exercise. More than 115 government agencies, companies and organizations participated. They included the White House National Security Council, Justice Department, Defense Department, State Department, National Security Agency and
CIA, which conducted its own cybersecurity exercise called "Silent Horizon" last May.

An earlier cyberterrorism exercise called "Livewire" for Homeland Security and other federal agencies concluded there were serious questions over government's role during a cyberattack depending on who was identified as the culprit — terrorists, a foreign government or bored teenagers.

It also questioned whether the U.S. government would be able to detect the early stages of such an attack without significant help from private technology companies.

PassMark Security appoints Kim MacPherson VP of engineering

Finextra: PassMark Security appoints Kim MacPherson VP of engineering

PassMark Security, the leading developer of authentication solutions for consumer ecommerce, announced the expansion of its world-class engineering management team with the addition of Kim MacPherson as vice president of engineering.

For the past five years, MacPherson was vice president of engineering at Securify, where she built network security platforms deployed in ultra-high-security environments in the federal government's military and espionage agencies. Previously, she built secure financial services applications at Intuit, including electronic tax filing systems.

MacPherson joins a product development executive team with extraordinary experience and depth:

Louie Gasparini, CTO, was SVP Internet Transaction Systems at Wells Fargo for many years, where he helped build Wells' pioneering online banking platform.

Charley Chell, director of engineering, managed development teams at CyberSource, a leading payment processing and fraud screening provider for Internet merchants.

William Wright, PhD, chief scientist, was lead architect of both the world's leading back-end credit card fraud detection system (HNC's Falcon system) and a leading front-end credit card fraud detection system (CyberSource's AFS system).

PassMark's system is the preeminent consumer-based online authentication solution in the market today. In its year-end cover story, BusinessWeek named it one of the "25 Best Products of 2005." Installed at major financial institutions such as Bank of America, it is currently deployed to more than 10 million users today, and will roll out to more than 20 million users by the end of the first quarter.

"PassMark pioneered the category of tokenless two-factor authentication," said Louie Gasparini. "With the FFIEC's recent endorsement of two-factor for all U.S. banks, we're gearing up to manage rapidly rising demand based on the market's acceptance of our innovative approach. Experience counts when you're building and installing high-scale, mission-critical systems. Kim has exactly that experience."

Bank of America extends SiteKey security to Northeast states

Finextra: Bank of America extends SiteKey security to Northeast states

An Online Banking security feature that helps prevent fraud and identity theft expanded to the Northeast in December, Bank of America announced today.

The free service, called SiteKey, provides an extra level of authentication to enhance security. Customers pick one of thousands of images, write a brief phrase and select three challenge questions. The customer and the bank pass that information securely back and forth to confirm each other's identity.

Using SiteKey is like getting a safe deposit box that takes two keys to open. Before the customer and the bank agree to open the box together, they confirm each other's identity. Industry experts have recognized the bank as the first major financial services company to provide this added level of security.

Bank of America has the most online banking customers in the world, with 14.6 million subscribers and 7.2 million online bill payers. Bank of America customers make up more than 34 percent of all online bankers and more than 58 percent of online banking bill payers in the United States.

The most recent states to receive SiteKey were Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island. SiteKey is now available throughout the country, except in Washington and Idaho, where it will launch later this year. The free service is moving from an optional to a standard part of sign-in. Customers will be told about the change through onscreen messages in advance.

"We're the first major bank to offer this extra level of protection and we're making it a standard part of signing-in to help protect all of our Online Banking customers from fraud and identity theft," said Sanjay Gupta, e-Commerce executive. "Signing up for SiteKey only takes a few minutes, and it's easy to use because you don't need extra hardware or other equipment."

Also in December, the bank took an additional security step to help customers identify fraudulent Web sites by posting the Bank of America Toolbar, powered by EarthLink, on the home page for free. The toolbar provides an icon that changes colors as the consumer surfs the Internet, letting the person know with a red, yellow or green symbol whether they've landed on what could be a dangerous Web site. It also alerts consumers before they go to a Web page that is on a list of known phisher sites. The toolbar also includes a pop-up blocker tool, which prevents advertising windows from appearing in the consumer's main browser window.

SiteKey and the Bank of America Toolbar are part of an umbrella of security measures that includes a zero liability guarantee that protects customers from fraud losses, two-tiered authentication for funds transfers, and the capability for customers to stop receiving paper statements to reduce risks associated with sending sensitive information through the mail.

Bank of America also has enhanced the privacy and security sections of its Web site to include more tips about online and offline security.
