How Google avoids downtime. The 11 People You Meet on (Nearly) Every Open Source Project. Network World Daily News AM February 27, 2015 Hackers exploit router flaws in unusual pharming attack An email-based attack spotted in Brazil recently employed an unusual but potent technique to spy on a victim's Web traffic.The technique exploited security flaws in home routers to gain access to the administrator console. Once there, the hackers changed the routers' DNS (Domain Name System) settings, a type of attack known as pharming.Pharming is tricky to pull off because it requires access to an ISP's or an organization's DNS servers, which translate domain names into the IP addresses of websites. Those DNS systems are typically well-protected, but home routers often are not.Security firm Proofpoint wrote in a blog post Thursday that launching the attack via email was a novel approach since pharming is normally a network-based attack.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here READ MORE   Issue highlights 1.
