Schädling erpresst Smart-TV-Besitzer | #Ransomware #CyberCrime #CyberSecurity #InternetOfThings #IoT #IoE 

Schädling erpresst Smart-TV-Besitzer | #Ransomware #CyberCrime #CyberSecurity #InternetOfThings #IoT #IoE  | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
Eine Variante der Ransomware Flocker attackiert auch Android-basierte Smart-TVs und erpresst deren Besitzer.
Die Ransomware Flocker treibt schon seit über einem Jahr ihr Unwesen auf Android-Geräten. Die Bildschirme der befallenen Geräte werden gesperrt und die Besitzer werden zur Zahlung eines Lösegelds erpresst, um wieder den Zugriff auf das Gerät zu erhalten. Seit Mai 2015 haben die Sicherheitsexperten von Trend Micro laut eigenen Angaben über 7.000 Varianten von Flocker gesammelt. Allein seit Mitte April 2016 gab es über 1.200 neue Varianten.

Und eine dieser jüngeren Varianten befällt auch Smart-TVs und erpresst deren Besitzer. Dabei wird der Bildschirm des Smart-TV gesperrt und auf dem Fernseher erscheint ein Warnhinweis, der von einer US Cyber-Polizei oder einer anderen angeblichen Strafverfolgungsbehörde stamme. Dem Smart-TV-Besitzer wird erklärt, er habe gegen Gesetze verstoßen. Die Strafe solle mittels iTunes Geschenkkarten im Wert von 200 US-Dollar beglichen werden. Erst dann erhalte der Nutzer wieder den vollen Zugriff auf den Fernseher.

Ransomware and the Internet of Things | #Awareness #CyberSecurity #IoT #IoE #InfoSec 

Ransomware and the Internet of Things | #Awareness #CyberSecurity #IoT #IoE #InfoSec  | ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet | Scoop.it
We all know that ransomware has become a huge problem, hitting businesses and consumers alike as it encrypts valuable data and attempting to extort sometimes large sums of money for safe recovery.
But at least we can console ourselves with one thought: the threat has been confined to encrypting data on computers and web servers, or locking users out of their systems until a ransom has been paid.
But the rise of the Internet of Things (IoT) means that the nature of what we consider to be a computer is constantly widening, and these other devices could be target for ransomware in the future warns a report from the Institute for Critical Infrastructure Technology (ICIT).
The report, rather alarmingly entitled “Combatting the ransomware blitzkreig”, discusses various families of crypto-ransomware and underlines the importance of computer users to be prepared for such attacks with a layered defense.
