Ihre tolle Smartwatch oder Spielerei könnte eine gewaltige Sicherheitslücke aufweisen ... Früher lockte ein Weihnachtsbaum mit aufwändig verpackten Geschenken verführerisch Einbrecher an, von denen gerade in dieser Zeit des Jahres viele unterwegs waren. Heutzutage jedoch stecken unter dem bunten Geschenkpapier unter dem Baum technische Spielereien und mobile Geräte, die ein weitaus weniger offensichtliches und darüber hinaus kostspieligeres Risiko darstellen. Technische Spielereien, Spiele mit WLAN, Wearables, Tablets, Smartphones, Fitness-Tracker, Smartwatches, Handys und sogar größere Geräte wie Laptops zählen voraussichtlich zu den beliebtesten Präsenten dieses Jahr zu Weihnachten. Laut der britischen Spielzeughändlervereinigung sind in Großbritannien folgende 12 Spielzeuge die beliebtesten Weihnachtsgeschenke 2015; anfgeführt wird diese Liste von “Baby Toot-Toot Friends Busy Sounds Discovery House” des Herstellers Vtech. Sagt Ihnen Vtech etwas? Laut gizmag erwarten die Kinder von heute, dass sich ihre Spielzeuge mit dem Internet verbinden, mit smarten Geräten koppeln und oftmals noch vor ihren Eltern an den neuesten Trends in der Technologie teilhaben lassen. Allerdings sollten Eltern aus gutem Grunde sich wohl überlegen, bevor sie ihren Kindern technische Spielereien kaufen; denn wie Sie weiter unten sehen werden, weisen diese Risiken nicht nur Kinderspielzeuge auf.

To define an IoT “Thing,” I’m going to employ Maslow’s hierarchy of needs — that well-known human psychology paradigm typically displayed in the shape of a pyramid, with the most fundamental human needs (physiological needs like air, food and water) at the bottom and rising to the most esoteric needs (self-actualization or expression of full potential) at the apex. The reason to think this way is to enable the use of familiar paradigms when “Thing” architecture and interaction models are designed. For example, consider this simple question: “What should you consider when purchasing an IoT thing?” With this new thinking, the answer becomes: “The same stuff you consider when you hire a new employee.” Trustworthiness, reliability and ability to work well with others form a great basis for consideration in both cases.

A new form of attack has brought a long-standing criminal malware suite to an NSA level of sophistication. A newly revealed malware that has been in use since at least the beginning of this year has been dubbed a “bootkit,” for its ability to infect a computer at the most fundamental level, running when the computer boots to actually load before the operating system itself. It’s part of the widespread “Nemesis” malware suite, and while it is currently aimed at financial institutions, the inclusion of bootkit functionality in a relatively “mass market” solution means the powerful form of cyber infiltration is coming to a much wider array of victims. The issue is that since a bootkit can load in malware programs before Windows itself loads, Windows processes have a hard time identifying malicious activity, and an even harder time removing it. Completely reinstalling the OS won’t do it — this is rather like the NSA attacks that can resist even a total format of the drive, but so far as we know those mostly at least require hardware infiltration of the target. In this case, this purely software virus can install itself behind your computers eyes, and thus never be seen.

A new form of attack has brought a long-standing criminal malware suite to an NSA level of sophistication. A newly revealed malware that has been in use since at least the beginning of this year has been dubbed a “bootkit,” for its ability to infect a computer at the most fundamental level, running when the computer boots to actually load before the operating system itself. It’s part of the widespread “Nemesis” malware suite, and while it is currently aimed at financial institutions, the inclusion of bootkit functionality in a relatively “mass market” solution means the powerful form of cyber infiltration is coming to a much wider array of victims. The issue is that since a bootkit can load in malware programs before Windows itself loads, Windows processes have a hard time identifying malicious activity, and an even harder time removing it. Completely reinstalling the OS won’t do it — this is rather like the NSA attacks that can resist even a total format of the drive, but so far as we know those mostly at least require hardware infiltration of the target. In this case, this purely software virus can install itself behind your computers eyes, and thus never be seen.

This "new" malware may present a significant challenge to IT teams in the coming months.
