I Spy With My Little Eye...

SpyEye Trojan defeating online banking defenses - Computerworld. We have all played the game with our children. They are antsy on a long car trip, so we banter about who can identify a secret color of an object in the vehicle. The SpyEye Trojan is, however, not a cute game. It is a deadly serious piece of malware that has gone from an expensive $10,000 hacker tool to a $95 program available from all sorts of bad actors. Banks, in particular, are frightened of this trojan, because it can remove money from allegedly secure bank accounts in the blink of an eye. This is another reason why law firms who do business in the cloud need to be security conscious. Do you know where your files are? Have you questioned your cloud provider about security issues? Do you bank online? Do you use several levels of security on your enterprise machines? Do you think passwords are a waste of time? Do you have a current antivirus and antimalware program running at all times? Ask the questions. Get the answers. Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.
