Internet and Security, Adobe fixes 29 security flaws in Acrobat and Adobe Reader
0 comments Posted by Rusty at 5:04 PMAdobe falls squarely within the world of solving security updates scheduled in this cycle no fewer than 29 security problems in its most popular software: readers and publishers of Adobe Reader and Acrobat PDF. It rivals Microsoft, which has been resolved in this cycle also 34 failures.
System administrators must walk still busy trying to upgrade their Microsoft and Adobe products. Adobe issued a statement in May by promising to improve its security policy. Basically, he said would improve the development code focusing on security, which would improve the incident response process, and would schedule regular updates for its products. In particular, every three months, the second Tuesday of each month. With a questionable approach, coincide with the days of renovation years ago chose Microsoft.
These promises inevitably recall the Trustworthy Computing that Microsoft had to implement in early 2002 (through a statement from Bill Gates himself) to try to address the continued suffering setbacks in security. It launched the Strategic Technology Protection Program (STPP) that later would bear fruit in projects that have been proven effective as Windows Software Update Services, Microsoft Operations Manager, the periodic update policy, systems fortified "by default", etc. . Still worse would come in 2003 with Blaster, but that already belongs to the prehistory, and Microsoft's efforts began to yield results years later.
Adobe has just released one of its first upgrade cycles with no fewer than 29 vulnerabilities addressed. Among them the one being used by attackers for weeks, and that allowed execution of arbitrary code through specially crafted PDF file. Microsoft corrected the same day 34, but in a much wider range of products.
Adobe begins to improve its security, seven years later than Microsoft (which still is adapting and assuming) ... In fact, as you begin to know Adobe as "the new Microsoft", inheriting their logistical problems in improving security and having to redesign its strategy (if perhaps too late), and acting re actively instead of having learned from other manufacturers. Now that Adobe is serious about security, we hope not necessary for so many years, as it is costing Microsoft, implement the results, since the world of malware is not the same as in 2002, and the consequences of problems security today are far more serious.
Internet and Security Tool
Dear readers welcome to Internet and Security tool blog. You will get all kind of internet software which is required for browsing and you will also get security software to keep your pc secure. Trying to communicate a secret in an environment with millions of potential witnesses such as the Internet is difficult, and the likelihood that someone will hear a conversation between two partners increases as does the distance between them. Because the Internet is truly global, no secrets in value should be communicated through it without the help of cryptography.
In the business world, information like credit card numbers, authentication of clients, including emails and phone calls end up being routed through the Internet. Since much of this corporate information should not be heard by other people, the need for security is obvious.
However, Internet Security is not only a business concern. Everyone has the right to privacy when it accesses the internet your need for privacy does not disappear. The privacy is not only confidentiality, but also includes anonymity. What we read, the pages you visited, the things we buy and the people we talked to represent information that most people do not like to publicize. If people are forced to expose information that would normally want to hide the fact connect to the Internet, probably reject all network related activities. Normally people are are not aware that how they get virus or how malware entered in their pc.
When we visit a website that contain malicious webpage within it (source code) codes that attempt to infect any way our system. Basically what happens when you visit a site with such malicious code is present in interior of that site when you start downloading ,from downloading process Malware enter in your .Basically what happens when you visit a site with such malicious code is present in suinterior start our team scans for vulnerabilities, when one is detected starts
downloading the malware that "knows" to take it.
It all starts with the download script, or put another way, entering a page that contains malicious scripts. Hence ons like noscript in Firefox are highly recommended to prevent these from running, but beware ... not all scripts are harmless and without them a lot of pages may not display correctly. Besides blocking the scripts is not the only possible security measure to take, keep your browser updated, programs and operating system updated with the latest security patches is absolutely vital. Not doing so is to increase significantly our exposure to viruses as well as affecting the performance of the PC, they can steal confidential information, capture what we write, delete files, install other malware and etc..
The malicious websites abound and can take various forms, from very attractive designs to alleged errors and seemingly empty pages. A newspaper is distributed by mail (spam), instant messaging (chat), forums, blogs, social networks and even on major portals are violated. That is why our common sense is the best weapon to keep them away, we must be cautious with all links
to click (look at the actual destination in the status bar), especially those present in unknown websites and unsolicited messages.
So beware of malware and virus and keep your system update and get all the latest update from this blog.
