Some Twitter accounts related to Sony Music were apparently accessed by hacker group OurMine this morning. The handles for Sony Music Global and Bob Dylan tweeted that Britney Spears was dead shortly after 8AM ET. “britney spears is dead by accident! we will tell you more soon,” the @SonyMusicGlobal account read before the tweets were deleted. A rep for Spears confirmed to CNN that the singer was, in fact, still alive OurMine is well known for breaking into accounts like these, and in this manner. In 2016 alone the group accessed everything from Google CEO Sundar Pichai’s Quora account, to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s social media accounts, to Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey’s own Twitter account. OurMine also got ahold of BuzzFeed’s website in October shortly after the outlet ran a story that probed for the identities of the hackers. And just last week the hackers accessed the Twitter accounts of Netflix and Marvel. Sony’s movie division was famously hacked in 2014 — a breach so big that th...

The process of Ethical hacking can be broken down into five distinct phases. An ethical hacker follows processes similar to those of a malicious hacker. The steps to gain and maintain entry into a computer system are similar no matter what the hacker's intentions are. Image illustrates the five phases that hackers generally follow in hacking a computer system. The five phases of Hacking are as follow: Reconnaissance Scanning Gaining Access Maintaining Access Covering Tracks Ethical Hacking Phases Passive and Active Reconnaissance Passive   reconnaissance  involves gathering information about a potential target without the targeted individual's or company's knowledge. Passive reconnaissance can be as simple as watching a building to identify what time employees enter the building and when they leave. However, most reconnaissance is done sitting in front of a computer. When hackers are looking for information on a potential target, they commonly run an Interne...

What Is a Hacker?    The basic definition of a hacker is someone who uses a computer system to gain unauthorized access to another system for data or who makes another system unavailable. These hackers will use their skills for a specific goal, such as stealing money, gaining fame by bringing down a computer system, or making a network unavailable -- even sometimes destroying them. However, there are three different types of hackers, each with a particular goal, and not all are the bad guys. Types of HACKERS White Hat:  A “white hat hacker” breaks security for non-malicious reasons, either to test their own security system, perform penetration tests or vulnerability assessments for a client - or while working for a security company which makes security software. White-hat hackers may also work in teams called "sneakers",red teams, or tiger teams. Black Hat:  A "black hat" hacker is a hacker who "violates computer security for little reason beyond maliciousness...

The Bangladesh domain belonging to Google is the latest to become the victim of hackers, as a group of attackers apparently coming from Pakistan managed to deface the search engine page and post their own message on the site. Hackers who are part of a group called Team Pak Cyber Attackers hijacked the Google Bangladesh search engine domain and posted a message that taunts the security systems put in place by Google. The breach was mostly possible with DNS hijacking, which was the same method that other hackers turned to in the past to disrupt other Google websites, including the Vietnamese homepage. In this latest hack, the attackers posted a message on the Google Bangladesh page that included the Pakistan Zindabad slogan, which translates to Long Live Pakistan. “Struck by Faisal 1337.

Steam servers DDoSed and taken down by Phantom Squad hacker group, gamers left in lurch during busy Christmas weekend  Right now they are showing a trailer of what they can achieve.

The blame for the Steam outage lies solely on Steam developers as the Phantom Squad had warned of such attacks during the busy Christmas...

Mark Zuckerberg designs an A.I(J.A.R.V.I.S -IRON MAN) Building Jarvis Mark Zuckerberg shares his experience Mark Zuckerberg says his personal challenge for 2016 was to build a simple AI to run my home -- like Jarvis in Iron Man. My goal was to learn about the state of artificial intelligence -- where we're further along than people realize and where we're still a long ways off. These challenges always lead me to learn more than I expected, and this one also gave me a better sense of all the internal technology Facebook engineers get to use, as well as a thorough overview of home automation. So far this year, I've built a simple AI that I can talk to on my phone and computer, that can control my home, including lights, temperature, appliances, music and security, that learns my tastes and patterns, that can learn new words and concepts, and that can even entertain Max. It uses several artificial intelligence techniques, including natural language processing, speech recogniti...

KICKASS   TORRENT BACK  from the draftd! Back in July, the world's largest and most notorious BitTorrent distribution site Kickass Torrents (KAT) with millions of unique daily visitors was shut down by the U.S. authorities following the arrest of its alleged owner Artem Vaulin . Shortly after the shutdown, a group of devoted original KAT staffers launched the Katcr.co forum in hopes of bringing back KickassTorrents to its former glory, in the near future. Now, Katcr.co has launched a fully operational torrent website, which looks identical to the original Kickass Torrents (KAT) portal, TorrentFreak reports . Note: In case the new KickassTorrents website does not immediately load, give it a few tries, as the site is experiencing a massive surge in traffic. Launched today and located at KATcr.co/new , the new Kickass Torrents site starts with a clean user database while many members of the original staff are back on board, including its dedicated uploaders. Here's what the KA...
