Stolen credit card information can often be used in many different ways. One could try to sell the information on the darknet for a profit, although these types of details no longer fetch a steep price these days. Carding is the second best option for most criminals, as they will simply abuse the credit card information to buy goods and services on the internet.

To ensure those purchased goods and services cannot be traced back to the carders, they often try to find things other people are more than willing to buy right now. Given the hype surrounding the Fortnite game, it is only normal there will be some efforts in this regard. More specifically, Sixgill confirms fraudsters are carding Fortnite in-game items which are then sold at bargain prices to unsuspecting victims.

The Israeli cyber scene is wrapping up a year of big investments, groundbreaking security solutions, cyberespionage allegations, and outgunning ransomware vendors. Now, the country’s cybersecurity startups are facing forward and ready to take on 2019’s cybersecurity threat landscape with know-how, innovation, and out-of-the-box approaches. Every 2.5 minutes there’s a cyber attack, according to a UK study published this week.
Gilad Israeli, cyber intelligence analyst at Sixgill, tells NoCamels that ransomware was the go-to cyberattack method in 2018.

“Fortnite” has become so popular it is now a new playground for cyber-criminals, a new study has found.  The game, which has an online audience of more than 200 million players and monthly revenues in the hundreds of millions of dollars, can also make the dubious claim of a burgeoning criminal ecosystem, according to research from cybersecurity firm Sixgill. Fraudsters use stolen credit cards to purchase Fortnite-related goods and then unload those goods to unsuspecting buyers, receiving clean money in return.

Cybercriminals have found a new avenue for fraud in Fortnite as it rises to become one of the most popular online games in the world. Fortnite has risen to the top of the charts in the gaming industry and attracted a large base of players around the world. Currently, it has over 200 million registered users. The game has, so far, made over $300 million. Sixgill, a cybersecurity company, has been studying the fraudsters’ use of the game for their crimes.

Fortnite – to gra z gatunku battle royale, która urosła do niesamowitych rozmiarów w ciągu minionego roku, przyciągając do siebie aż 200 milionów zarejestrowanych graczy, z czego 8,3 miliona grało jednocześnie na wszystkich dostępnych platformach. Niestety jak to w życiu bywa, popularność przyciąga kryminalistów, a w tym przypadku cyberprzestępców, którzy stworzyli kwitnący przestępczy ekosystem wokół gry. Cyberprzestępstwa to żadna nowość w świecie gier, a sprawcy często wykorzystują najpopularniejsze tytuły do swoich nieuczciwych aktywności. Na przestrzeni ostatnich lat to World of Warcraft od Blizzarda był głównym celem oszustw phishingowych, podobnie jak Dota 2 oraz obecnie również Fortnite.

Fortnite: Battle Royale has grown to epic proportions over the past year, with a staggering 200 million registered players and a height of 8.3 million concurrent across all platforms. Sadly, this immense popularity has drawn the attention of cyber criminals who have in turn created a “thriving criminal eco-system around the game.”  Cybercrime is nothing new in video games, with perpetrators often utilising the most popular titles to do their dirty work. Over the past decade, Blizzard’s World of Warcraft has been a prime target of phishing scams, as has Dota 2 and even Fortnite itself. Multiple times. Cyber security specialists at Sixgill have been monitoring the deep and dark web (DDW), noting that surge in popularity of Fortnite has spurred on an entire ecosystem for criminal activity.

Dark web, which is a collection of websites and content that is not indexed, which is present deep beneath the surface web, operates anonymously with its IP address hidden. It majorly focuses on unknown threats and improvises cyber risk analysis, and this helps to take preventive measures. Dark web intelligence provides important cyber security and threat intelligence insights, and would remain a key element for effective automation solutions in the cyber security industry. A new analytical data of Dark Web Intelligence market, which focuses on effective strategies of the business framework. It highlights the recent market trends, growth in the past decade, and upcoming opportunities such as, Dark Web Intelligence  in front of the business. The research methods and tools used to analyze the studies are both primary and secondary research. The study further presents details on the funds initiated by different organizations, and industries.

La popularidad de Fortnite, con una audiencia de más de 200 millones de usuarios activos al mes, también acaparó la atención de actores malintencionados, y no solo de aquellos que buscan estafar a los usuarios para obtener un rédito económico, sino también de acosadores que utilizan la plataforma contactar a jóvenes y extorsionarlos. En el caso de las estafas, como ya hemos hablado anteriormente, incluso en etapas previas a que se desatara la polémica cuando la empresa desarrolladora de Fornite anunció que no estaría disponible en Google Play, con las consecuencias para la seguridad que eso podría tener, las estafas alrededor del juego vienen desde hace ya un tiempo.

“Fortnite” has become so popular it is now a new playground for cyber-criminals, a new study has found. The game, which has an online audience of more than 200 million players and monthly revenues in the hundreds of millions of dollars, can also make the dubious claim of a burgeoning criminal ecosystem, according to research from cybersecurity firm Sixgill. Fraudsters use stolen credit cards to purchase Fortnite-related goods and then unload those goods to unsuspecting buyers, receiving clean money in return.

Most people, according to Sixgill VP of Marketing Barry Spielman, know “nothing” about the dark web – an issue that he added is increasingly problematic as a lack of dark web security in cybersecurity frameworks puts data at risk.

Now that the hype has died down after the much anticipated midterm elections, Sixgill, the cybersecurity leader which analyzes the Dark Web to detect and defuse cyber attacks, discovered that the U.S. voter database tracing back to the 2008 Vermont election was being offered for sale on a top-tier forum on the Dark Web. The alert that came from Sixgill also stated that it allegedly contained data from as recently as September of this year.

Some of the most potent forms of ransomware of 2018 are being offered for sale in a cut-price bundle deal on the dark web that also contains one of the most dangerous forms of file-encrypting malware to terrorise organisations this year. SamSam is part of the 23 ransomware bundle — significant because previously it’s only been deployed by a highly specialised group. Other well-known forms of ransomware available in the $750 ‘2018 ransomware pack’ include Magniber, Satan, CryBrazil, XiaoBa, and more. The pack has been uncovered by researchers at cyber security firm Sixgill.

Four clear trends are dominating the cybersecurity reality. The growth in digital devices is driving risk management. Business leaders see new risks tied to emerging technologies. Cyber threats to the integrity of data are a rising concern and current employees remain the top source of security incidents.

For this year’s PwC Cybersecurity Day, which falls within the Luxembourg Cybersecurity Week, the focus will be on why businesses are vulnerable to cyber disruptions and how leaders who participate at the event can help their organisations build resilience to sustain operations and boost economic performance. It is imperative that in the post GDPR world we protect data privacy and revitalise trust.

Focus on next-gen solutions: eight top companies compete

One of the agenda’s highlights will be the pitch competition. Eight top companies – CounterCraft, CybeReady, Detectify, Hacknowledge, Jemmic, NormShield, Sixgill and Venafi – will present how they meet cybersecurity challenges head-on with next-generation solutions.

We’ve come to rely on online services for nearly every aspect of our lives: communicating with friends and family, filing taxes, shopping, ordering food, hailing a ride, and for those with smart homes, even turning on the lights. Those services we rely on, however, also leave a breadcrumb trail of information about ourselves online and expose us to cyber-criminals. More than 16.7 million Americans became victims of fraud in 2017, losing a total of $16.8 billion, according to a report by advisory firm Javelin Strategy & Research. What’s especially frightening is that criminals obtained at least $5 billion of that amount through online identity theft, robbing their victims from the comfort of their desks, without the need to even get close to them. As our lives become more connected, the threat of our personal information ending up on the dark web is becoming more rampant, and anyone can become a victim. In many cases, we can’t even quantify the damage of online identity theft. Here’s what you need to know about online identity theft, the dark web, and how to protect yourself.

Facebook has approved a $10 million annual security allowance for its co-founder, Mark Zuckerberg, citing “specific threats” to his safety.

The allowance, worth £7.6 million, has increased by about 25 per cent from last year, and relates to threats “arising directly as a result of his position as Facebook’s founder, chairman and CEO,” the company said in a filing to US regulators.

The award will pay for more bodyguards, improved security at Mr Zuckerberg’s homes and the use of private aircraft. It follows the circulation by an Isis cyberunit of faked images featuring Mr Zuckerberg in an orange jumpsuit and his severed head, with the message “Go to hell, Mark.”

Sixgill, a security firm, told the Daily Star: “We assume that Isis is targeting Facebook to retaliate against its measures to censor pro-Isis content and groups, and because Facebook is seen as a western symbol.”

CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) is a list of publicly known cybersecurity vulnerabilities and exposures. Its purpose is to facilitate the sharing of data and to alert users of required actions to mitigate potential threats in the cyber world. Although the practice of alerting the public with new CVEs is a crucial component in contemporary cyber-security strategy, Sixgill has identified a common practice in the Dark Web underground which indicates that publishing CVEs could turn out to be a double-edged sword. From what we are seeing, cyber threat-actors are continuously searching for new vulnerabilities and they invest considerable effort in finding ways to exploit these vulnerabilities.

For example, Sixgill recently identified such a criminal behavior involving CVE-2018-7600.

The sick poster shows a man, mocked up to look like Mr Zuckerberg, who has been beheaded and includes the Facebook logo with “hacked” stamped across it.

The figure is wearing an orange jumpsuit, which ISIS often force their victims to wear before executing them.

The group also released screenshots of Facebook pages they claim to have hacked, which have been daubed with extreme propaganda.

According to the poster the hacks are part of a pro-ISIS online operation titled “#OPTHEWORLD”.

Theo Daily Star, công ty an ninh mạng Sixgill chuyên theo dõi hoạt động của IS đưa ra cảnh báo trên, trong bối cảnh khủng bố IS mở chiến dịch tấn công mạng quy mô lớn.

IS đăng ảnh Mark Zuckerberg bị chặt đầu, bên cạnh là bộ quần áo tù nhân màu cam với thông điệp “xuống địa ngục đi Mark”.

Khủng bố IS đang tổ chức các đợt tấn công mạng trong chiến dịch gọi là “#OpTheWorld”. Nhiều trang mạng bị tấn công và bị xâm nhập, theo Sixgill.

IS còn tuyên bố đã hack thành công nhiều tài khoản trên Facebook, coi mạng xã hội này là mục tiêu lớn nhất.

Sixgill nói trên Daily Star: “Chúng tôi tin rằng IS nhắm vào Facebook để đáp trả việc mạng xã hội này chặn các thông điệp tuyên truyền của IS và các nhóm thánh chiến. Bên cạnh đó, Facebook được coi là biểu tượng của phương Tây”.

Cybersecurity firm Sixgill revealed the shocking threats as part of a wave of online terror operations by the so-called United Cyber Caliphate (UCC). ISIS is circulating images featuring Zuckerberg in an orange jumpsuit and beheaded – including the message “Go to hell Mark”. Jihadis are ramping up their hacking operations as part of a campaign the terrorists have dubbed “#OpTheWorld”.  Numerous websites have been targeted – and successfully attacked – experts from Sixgill revealed to Daily Star Online. Included in a dossier of their findings is claims from ISIS that they have successfully hacked numerous accounts on Facebook as part of their “vendetta’.

The terror organisation publicised images edited to feature Zuckerberg in an orange jumpsuit and beheaded.

The poster includes the message “go to hell Mark”, and is part of a campaign dubbed #OpTheWorld.

Sixgill, an online cybersecurity firm, revealed the threats to the Daily Star – as ISIS appears to ramp up their hacking operations.

The so-called United Cyber Caliphate (UCC) recently came together as several pro-ISIS hacking groups.

ISIS cyber attackers claim to have ‘hacked’ Facebook with sick posters threatening to behead boss Mark Zuckerberg.

A pro-ISIS group is circulating disturbing fake pictures of Zuckerberg beheaded, one with the typed caption “go to hell Mark”.

Cybersecurity firm Sixgill has told the Daily Star the threats are part of a wave of online terror operations by the United Cyber Caliphate (UCC).

México.- Las selfies que tomas en tu smartphone, podrían ser vendidas al mercado negro digital (dark web), y vendidas por hackers, reveló el sitio de ciberseguridad Sixgill en una entrevista para el portal “The Next Web”.

De acuerdo con el experto en ciberseguridad Aled Karlinsky, en la dark web se está poniendo de moda la venta de documentos digitalizados como selfies, identificaciones oficiales, comprobantes de domicilio, entre otros, aprovechando la virtualización de servicios bancarios y crediticios.

לפני שבועיים הוסר הלוט מעל פרשייה ביטחונית חמורה, שבה עובד של חברת הסייבר ההתקפי NSO גנב לכאורה נשק סייבר של החברה וניסה למכור אותו ב–Dark Web, הרשת האפלה, תמורת 50 מיליון דולר. אלא שהמזימה שלו נכשלה, כי הרוכש לכאורה הסגיר את העובד הסורר למנהלי NSO,  תלונה הוגשה למשטרת ישראל והעובד נעצר.

Düsseldorf Israel ist zwar nicht für die Fußballweltmeisterschaft qualifiziert, fußballverrückt ist das Land trotzdem. Vor Bars und Restaurants sind große Leinwände aufgestellt, die Betreiber bieten Besuchern spezielle WM-Angebote an. Besonders begeistert vom Spiel scheinen aber Israels Soldaten zu sein – und eine Terrorgruppe der Hamas soll sie nun mit einem ganz besonderen „WM-Angebot“ gelockt haben.

L’industrie des soins de santé est attaquée, selon la communauté des cyber-informateurs, et l’activité du marché noir du dark web montre que les pirates cherchent à cibler les hôpitaux, les appareils médicaux et les systèmes de santé pour obtenir des informations sensibles et personnelles.

The healthcare industry is under attack, according to the cyber intelligence community, and dark web black market activity shows hackers are gung-ho on targeting hospitals, medical devices and healthcare systems in order to get their hands on sensitive and personal information.

This is a global epidemic; no country is protected.

“The more confidential and sensitive, the more valuable,” says Gilad Israeli, a Sixgill cyber intelligence analyst. “Fraudsters are looking for the most sensitive data because it is more valuable, and they can ask for more money. If they offer super hard-to-get medical device ID or a way to hack it, it means they are very good at what they’re doing and it heightens their reputation. And, reputation means money in the longer term.”

The Russia World Cup that has kicked-off for almost a week is seen as a success so far as 32 countries fight their way to be at the top of their respective groups, but terror group Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) says they will rain on the globe’s biggest sporting event’s parade soon.

Over the week, ISIS has been threatening to attack and disturb the ongoing World Cup. And in its latest propaganda, they have released a series of posters showing bomb blasts at the stadiums.

A video also captions for its supporters to be “ready and steady for the season of hunting is soon.”

Argentine star Lionel Messi has also become a target, as a mock image shows him clad in an orange jumpsuit, kneeling before a masked terrorist in the middle of the stadium, as the large crowd watches him being executed.

Învinsă în Irak şi puternic lovită în Siria, organizaţia jihadistă Statul Islamic îl ameninţă pe preşedintele rus Vladimir Putin cu un atac în timpul Campionatului Mondial de Fotbal, găzduit de Rusia în perioada 14 iunie – 15 iulie. Statul Islamic a difuzat un filmuleţ de propagandă în care ameninţă Rusia cu un atac „cum nu s-a mai văzut în istorie“

La minaccia dell’Isis dopo l’inizio dei Mondiali di calcio in Russia. I militanti dello Stato islamico in un video parlano di “massacro che non è mai stato visto prima nella storia” della Coppa del Mondo. La società di sicurezza informatica Sixgill, che monitora l’attività dell’Isis sul dark web e nelle app crittografate, ha rivelato l’ultima mossa al ‘Daily Star Online’. Il direttore dell’intelligence dell’azienda, Omer Carmi, ha sottolineato che i terroristi cercano “vendetta” su Vladimir Putin e la Russia.

Ngôi sao số một của ĐT Brazil tại World Cup 2018 thừa nhận anh cùng các đồng đội muốn báo thù người Đức tại World Cup lần này.
Tại World Cup 2014, Neymar đã không thể có mặt trong trận đấu với ĐT Đức tại bán kết vì dính chấn thương lưng trong trận tứ kết với Colombia. Như tất cả đều biết, Brazil đã thua Đức 1-7. Trong trận tranh giải Ba với Hà Lan, Selecao tiếp tục thua 0-3 để chính thức kết thúc kỳ World Cup được tổ chức trên sân nhà theo cách không thể tệ hơn.

Jihadis have been told footie fans they face a “massacre that has never been seen in history before” at the World Cup.

Russia kicks off the tournament with a match at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow against Saudi Arabia.

Cyber security firm Sixgill – which monitors ISIS activity on the dark web and in encrypted apps – revealed the latest threat to Daily Star Online.

The Senior Cyber Intelligence Analyst at Sixgill, Gabriel Glusman, gives us a breakdown on the dark web vs the deep web and why the social media-like community on the dark web enables cyber attacks to thrive. Glusman then goes on to discuss the technology behind Dark-i and how it analyzes dark web activity to proactively combat cyber attacks.

The dark web — the part of the web not indexed by search engines such as Google and used for nefarious purposes — isn’t actually that big. One estimate suggests are only around 7,000 sites on the TOR network, while the FBI has said there are only around 800 criminal internet forums worldwide.

But while there may not be massive amounts of these forums, it is where the vast majority of underhanded online activity takes place. And for any company wishing to stay on top of its security obligations, getting a window into what happens on the dark web could prove invaluable.

Luckily, a new wave of companies such as Webhose, RepKnight, Terbium labs, Massive, Recorded Future, Sixgill, Hold Security, and Alien Vault are adding a new layer to traditional threat intelligence and trying to make the dark web as easily searchable as any normal, Google-able website.

Cyber security firm Sixgill – which monitors ISIS activity on the dark web and in encrypted apps – revealed the latest threat to Daily Star Online.

Propaganda images show terrorists descending on the 70,000 seater Olimpiyskiy Stadium. And others show an unidentified orange-jumpsuit clad prisoner being beheaded on the football pitch.

Sixgill security experts told Daily Star Online sporting events have become prime targets for jihadis following ISIS defeats in the Middle East.

Cyber security firm Sixgill passed onto this website a string of recently-posted jihadi propaganda calling for more attacks on the West.  ISIS has been smashed in the Middle East, being driven out of its major strongholds in Iraq and Syria. Propaganda is still being pumped out by the cult however as it attempts to inspire fighters to attack targets in Britain, France, the US, Russia and more. Today marks the first anniversary of the attack on Manchester Arena carried out by ISIS-inspired suicide bomber Salman Abedi. 22 innocent people were killed when the jihadi detonated a device after an Ariana Grande concert – leaving more than 800 injured. Sixgill monitors ISIS activity on encrypted apps such as Telegram as well as on the so-called Dark Web. It is most famous for uncovering ISIS threats to the Royal Family, most shockingly calls to attack Prince George.

Tổ chức tự xưng Nhà nước Hồi giáo (IS) tiếp tục đe dọa an ninh World Cup ở Nga với tấm poster đang cắt cổ hai siêu sao bóng đá. “Máu của chúng mày sẽ hòa quyện với mặt cỏ. Chiến thắng tại World Cup 2018 sẽ thuộc về bọn tao”, dòng chú thích cho tấm ảnh mới nhất được IS đăng trên mạng Sixgill ghi. Hiện tại, các cơ quan an ninh Nga đang đặt tình trạng báo động cao về nguy cơ IS tấn công vào World Cup.

[아시아경제 이진수 선임기자] 이슬람 극단주의 무장단체 ‘이슬람국가(IS)’가 다음달 열리는 러시아 월드컵에서 크리스티아누 호날두(33ㆍ포르투갈)와 리오넬 메시(31ㆍ아르헨티나)를 참수하겠다고 위협했다.

영국 타블로이드 신문 ‘더 선’ 등 외신들은 15일(현지시간) 모바일 암호화 메신저 ‘텔레그램’에 메시와 호날두가 참수되는 장면의 합성사진이 올라왔다고 16일 보도했다.

VIVA –  Kelompok teroris paling radikal, Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS), terus menebar ancaman jelang Piala Dunia 2018. Bahkan, ISIS merilis poster yang cukup mengerikan sebagai ancamannya. ISIS memang sudah beberapa kali melancarkan ancaman pada Piala Dunia yang bakal digelar di Rusia nanti. Berbagai poster ancaman sudah mereka rilis.

Δεν είναι η πρώτη φορά που το Ισλαμικό Κράτος απειλεί με αιματοχυσία μια μεγάλη ποδοσφαιρική διοργάνωση. Δεδομένα δεν θα είναι και η τελευταία. Ωστόσο ο τρόπος με τον οποίο επέλεξαν αυτή τη φορά οι τζιχαντιστές να προκαλέσουν φόβο, σοκάρει.

Cybersecurity is big business in Israel, which is home to several of the world’s top companies working in the field. For a fun illustration of Israel’s standing as a cyber superpower, search Google images using “Israeli unicorns’’ (tech industry slang for start-up companies with a $1 billion-plus valuation) and then “Australian unicorns’’.

As far back as 2013, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu set a goal for the country to become a world leader in an industry estimated to be worth $US100 billion and growing in importance with the increasingly connected nature of governments, business and society.

Sixgill, named for the primitive shark that feeds in the deep waters of the ocean floor, trawls the “dark web”, used by terrorists, drug dealers and others, to un-cover and monitor threats to banks, insurers and other corporate customers that are the target of frequent attacks.

Like many college students who cram the night before a test – and some writers who test the limits of their editors’ patience with their procrastination – many companies have pushed off GDPR compliance, believing either it doesn’t apply to them, it’s too costly or overwhelming or they can afford to wait and see just how serious regulators are about admonishing and fining companies who falter on privacy.

Big mistake.

El grupo terrorista ISIS volvió a su actividad con amenazas fuertes de realizar un atentado durante el Mundial de Rusia.

En esta ocasión utilizaron Telegram para compartir fotos en donde se veían como torturaban a Lionel Messi y Cristiano Ronaldo con el mensaje: “You wil not enjoy security until we live it in muslim countries” (no disfrutarás de seguridad hasta que la vivamos en países musulmanes).

A cyber security expert said that the app has been plagued by terrorists plotting atrocities at the World Cup.

Elad Ezrachi, of internet surveillance firm Sixgill, told the Star that intelligence suggests the threats to be taken seriously.

‘There is no doubt that this technology, if used by Isis in terrorist attacks at the World Cup, can lead to catastrophic results.’

Chilling videos and pictures posted on encrypted app Telegram allegedly detail the terror group’s sick murder plans for the international summer tournament.

One of which is believed to show extremists returning from Syria and Iraq to build weaponised drones in Russia, according to the Daily Star Sunday.

Another picture apparently shows a drone carrying what appears to be anti-tank rockets, and the caption states that they are some of the types of bombs being manufactured by ISIS.

Cyber security experts claim the app has become a “breeding ground” for terrorists in the run up to the World Cup.

Elad Ezrachi, of internet surveillance firm Sixgill, told the Star his firm had seen the clips and added that intelligence suggests the threats to be taken seriously.

Isis is even plotting to send suicide bombers into stadiums on flyboards, a Daily Star Sunday investigation can reveal. Islamist nuts have been posting videos and pictures on encrypted app Telegram detailing their evil plans to murder players and fans. Last night, cyber-security experts claimed the Telegram app has become a “breeding ground” for terrorists in the run up to the World Cup. Elad Ezrachi, of internet surveillance firm Sixgill, said Isis began using armed drones in Iraq and Syria in early 2017.

פשיעת סייבר הולכת ליצור 3.5 מיליון משרות חדשות תוך שלוש השנים הקרובות, פי 3.5 יותר ממיליון המשרות שנפתחו במהלך 2016. עלות הגנת עסקים ב 2017 עלתה כדי 86 מיליארד USD. התופעה הולכת וגדלה בקצבים מדהימים. מה המגמות והאתגרים הצפויים לנו ב 2018 ואילך?

We all know hackers sell your data online, but did you know that now they’re now to selling your selfies on the dark web, too?

That’s the word from Sixgill, an Israeli dark web research company. Unfortunately, this new development could have dangerous implications as more and more companies move toward what’s being called “selfie pay.”

Sixgill is among the finalists of the InfoSec Awards for 2018 which will be announced at RSA.

It’s been nearly six months in the making – our annual review of the hottest, most innovative, best, market leaders, next-generation and cutting edge INFOSEC companies offering incredible products and services.

This year we decided to also include and give credit to a small list of public relations firms that do a great job to help get the word out about these innovators and we’ve included a small list of very important people to keep an eye on – because they are making a difference.

We scoured the globe and found nearly 3,000 companies who create and offer the most respected InfoSec products and services.  Some of them you have never even heard of until today.  Some are startups and some are early stage.  Some are bigger known players.  But what they all have in common is a drive for innovation.  They truly want to help you get ahead of the next breach.  They are on a mission to help you comply with regulations, stop the cyber-criminals, hackers, hacktivists, cyber terrorists and threats against critical infrastructure.

We all know hackers sell your data online, but did you know that now they’re now to selling your selfies on the dark web, too?

That’s the word from Sixgill, an Israeli dark web research company. Unfortunately, this new development could have dangerous implications as more and more companies move toward what’s being called “selfie pay.”

It is now no-brainer that you literally get anything from the dark web. Commonly perceived as the Internet’s “shrouded underbelly,” the dark web is famous for its exclusive hidden markets which make a brisk trade in the sales of weapons, personal documents and identities, not to mention narcotics. Recently, Sixgill, an Israel-based dark web research company, came across a significant data dump up for sale on a primarily Russian-language dark web forum. What particularly set this dump apart from the rest of the large chunk of data available was that for every record, there was an accompanying selfie of the said user.

Nous savons que les informations confidentielles de millions de personnes sont présentes sur les marchés clandestins du dark web. La société de recherche Sixgill, spécialisée dans l’observation du dark web, a récemment repéré un dépôt de données sur un forum en langue russe qui comprend de nombreux selfies d’utilisateurs. En tout, pas moins de 100.000 documents pour une valeur totale de 50.000 dollars.

Hackers are apparently getting more visual with a recent data dump for sale on the dark web — including a selfie of each user. According to a report in NextWeb, Sixgill, an Israeli dark web research company, discovered a data dump for sale on a big Russian language dark web format that includes a selfie of the users. “We came across an advertisement in a closed-access forum which is predominantly Russian where someone was selling 100,000 documents for $50,000,” said Sixgill’s Alex Karlinsky in an interview with NextWeb. “These documents include their ID or passport, proof of address, and unusually, a selfie.”

Cybercriminals are selling selfies alongside their data dumps on Russian language dark web forums, offering potential buyers more options to exploit victims. “We came across an advertisement in a closed-access forum which is predominantly Russian where someone was selling 100,000 documents for $50,000,” Alex Karlinsky a spokesperson for Israeli dark-web research firm Sixgill told TNW. “These documents include their ID or passport, proof of address, and unusually, a selfie.”

Selfie trafugati e messi in vendita nel Dark web. In un forum in lingua russa, la compagnia israeliana Sixgil ha scoperto il commercio di 100 mila documenti contenenti informazioni personali. Carte d’identità, passaporti, indirizzi e per la prima volta anche autoscatti. Il tutto al prezzo di 50mila dollari.  

Una empresa de seguridad informática alertó sobre la venta de un conjunto de 100.000 documentos con datos personales (identificación y comprobante de dirección), que se ofrecen junto a selfies de las víctimas por 50.000 dólares en la dark web (una zona de la red no indexada por motores de búsqueda convencionales).

Lo que distingue a este conjunto de datos de los miles que están disponibles en la dark web es que cada registro está acompañado de una selfie, con la gravedad de que al combinar este tipo de imágenes (selfies) con otros registros personales un atacante puede, por ejemplo, abrir cuentas bancarias o acceder a líneas de crédito en nombre de una víctima.

Hace ya unos cuantos años que las selfies empezaron a ponerse de moda. A partir de ahí, los teléfonos con cámara frontal se han convertido en algo indispensable en los smartphones y el fenómeno llegó hasta el famoso y a la vez odiado ‘palo selfie’. Sin embargo, estas fotografías también pueden suponer un peligro para la seguridad y están siendo comercializadas en la Dark Web.

En la parte oscura de internet se puede encontrar cualquier cosa; desde armas hasta venta de identidades falsas. Los ciberdelincuentes han encontrado su hábitat en este lugar oscuro de la web y una de sus últimas maniobras ha sido la venta y comercialización de las selfies.

A new cannabis-backed cryptocurrency hopes to prove that a digital currency designed for social impact can solve real-world problems. “Cryptocurrency can take the marijuana industry to a whole new level,” says Gabriel Glusman, a senior analyst at Sixgill cyber intelligence firm.

The popularity of bitcoin is creating problems for criminals dealing in ransomware — and some are already casting their gaze towards a less volatile cryptocurrency. There is one group for whom the almost-anonymous nature of bitcoin is highly appealing: cybercriminals. Bitcoin was used to trade in illicit products and services on the dark web, as it was relatively simple to get hold of, reliable, and very hard for anyone to monitor transactions and where the money ended up.

“The fact that so many people are legally buying into bitcoin right now has dramatically increased the volume of trading,” Gabriel Glusman, senior cyber intelligence analyst at Sixgill, told ZDNet.

2017 was a difficult year for Dark Web markets. Two of the major markets, AlphaBay and Hansa, were shut down by law enforcement. Others shut down on their own, either permanently or for periods of time. And the cryptocurrency in use, Bitcoin, has seen a meteoric rise in value which has changed the rules of the game.
