Even as Visa issued a warning about a new JavaScript web skimmer known as Baka, cybersecurity researchers have uncovered a new flaw in the company's EMV enabled cards that enable cybercriminals to obtain funds and defraud cardholders as well as merchants illicitly. The research, published by a group of academics from the ETH Zurich, is a PIN bypass attack that allows the adversaries to leverage a victim's stolen or lost credit card for making high-value purchases without knowledge of the card's PIN, and even trick a point of sale (PoS) terminal into accepting an unauthentic offline card transaction. All modern contactless cards that make use of the Visa protocol, including Visa Credit, Visa Debit, Visa Electron, and V Pay cards, are affected by the security flaw, but the researchers posited it could apply to EMV protocols implemented by Discover and UnionPay as well. The loophole, however, doesn't impact Mastercard, American Express, and JCB. The findings will be presen

An adversary known for targeting the fintech sector at least since 2018 has switched up its tactics to include a new Python-based remote access Trojan (RAT) that can steal passwords, documents, browser cookies, email credentials, and other sensitive information. In an analysis published by Cybereason researchers on 3-September-2020, the Evilnum group has not only tweaked its infection chain but has also deployed a Python RAT called "PyVil RAT," which possesses abilities to gather information, take screenshots, capture keystrokes data, open an SSH shell and deploy new tools. "Since the first reports in 2018 through 4-September-2020, the group's TTPs have evolved with different tools while the group has continued to focus on fintech targets," the cybersecurity firm evilnum. "These variations include a change in the chain of infection and persistence, new infrastructure that is expanding over time, and the use of a new Python-scripted Remote Access Trojan (RAT

I Think Arua Central Can Give Hon. Ejiku Robert A Chance This Time. I Know Oli women Might Have A Different Thought, But For NRM Primaries, He Is One in A Million Competent Leader Among The Contestants!!! This is not a Campaign Post. This is not a Sponsored post. This is what I think would be the best choice for NRM in the Primaries.  In the year 2016, when Gor Mahia FC came for a friendly match in Namboole against ONDUPARAKA FOOTBALL CLUB, I and other 40 fans took a Coaster Mini Bus to travel for that game from Arua to Central. Mid-Way around Migyera, just after Kigumba, we were involved in a Nasty accident (as we rammed on a packed trailer) and our mini bus got wrecked. 2 of our Fans got seriously injured due to glass cuts, and most of us got minor injuries.

They advised us to try and get any means to reach Kampala and then they will find a way for us to get back to A
