Dark times for Android: Examining Certifi-gate and the newest Stagefright updates

Certifi-gate and Stagefright are two recent threats that have put many Android devices at risk. Photo via Ars Technica.

When it comes to security, it seems that Android has seen better days. A slew of vulnerabilities and threats have been cropping up recently, putting multitudes of Android users at risk. Certifi-gate and Stagefright are two threats that, when left unprotected against, could spark major data breaches.

Certifi-gate leaches permissions from other apps to gain remote control access

Certifi-gate is a Trojan that affects Android’s operating system in a scary way. Android devices with Jelly Bean 4.3 or higher are affected by this vulnerability, making about 50% of all Android users vulnerable to attacks or to their personal information being compromised.

What’s frightening about this nasty bug is how easily it can execute an attack – Certifi-gate only requires Internet access in order to gain remote control access of your devices. The attack takes place in three steps:

  1. A user installs a vulnerable app that contains a remote access backdoor onto their Android device
  2. A remotely-controlled server takes control of this app by exploiting its insecure backdoor
  3. Using remote access, Certifi-gate obtains permissions from others apps that have previously been granted higher privileges (i.e. more permissions) by the user and uses them to exploit user data. A good example of an app targeted by Certifi-gate is TeamViewer, an app that allows you to control your Android device remotely.

The good news here is that Avast Mobile Security blocks the installation packages that make it possible for Certifi-gate to exploit the permissions of your other apps. Breaking this down further, Avast Mobile Security would block the package before the action in Step 2 is carried out, making it impossible for a remotely-controlled server to take control of an insecure app that contains a vulnerable remote access backdoor.

Google’s Stagefright patch can be bypassed

We’ve already told you about the Stagefright bug, which has exposed nearly 1 billion Android devices to malware. Whereas Certifi-gate uses Internet access to control your device, Stagefright merely needs a phone number in order to infect users.

Due to the scope and severity of this threat, Google quickly put out a security patch that was intended to resolve the Stagefright issue once and for all. Unfortunately, it hasn’t been fully successful — it’s possible for the patch to be bypassed, which leaves Android users with a false sense of security and a vulnerable device.

As Avast security researcher Filip Chytry explains in his original post examining Stagefright, Avast encourages users to disable the “auto retrieve MMS” feature within their default messaging app’s settings as a precautionary measure. You can read our full set of instructions for staying safe against Stagefright in the post.

The most sought-after professional profiles in the information security sector

security jobs

Direct attacks, identity and information theft of all sorts (especially social engineering), persistent advanced threats… the risks associated with information security are continually multiplying in a world which is increasingly more digital, mobile, and multi-device based. With this backdrop it is no surprise that cybersecurity experts are in high demand along with professionals in other sectors such as information analysis, big data technology, and data scientists.

So, which are the most desired profiles in security departments? Which training do these professionals need to have and how much are they paid? To get the answers to all of these questions, and to help security experts and the businesses which are looking for them have a realistic idea of how they fit into the marketplace, we have consulted two HR experts with specific experience in the IT sector. Sára Álvarez, Spring Professional manager at Adecco, is in no doubt – engineers and security technicians, as well as auditors specialized in this area and even pre-sales engineers, are the most sought-after roles in security departments.

María Mosquera, executive manager at Michael Page Technology, adds that Logic Security Managers, IT Security Technicians and Experts, Security Managers, Ethical Hacking Experts, and CISOs (“this is generally a position attained after a promotion from another management role”) are the job profiles that are in demand. They are particularly sought-after by consultancy firms “where there are parts of the business solely dedicated to information security”. The role of CISO, she says, “is generally reserved for larger companies”.

Professionals that are requested more and more

“In recent years we have identified a clear need for these profiles in different customers in different sectors. It is a reality that security is increasingly important in companies because everything is already in the network,” states Alvarez. “In 2014, especially, we saw that the focus of the security companies completely changed. Whereas before these profiles were sought out as needed, nowadays they fill their departments with expert, permanent staff in in order to prevent data leaks and other threats. The demand for security professionals almost doubled last year compared to 2013”.

jobs security

Mosquera agrees with Adecco’s spokeswoman about the growing relevance that security has taken in all organizations, which she says typically have a specific department or work with external consultants specialized in the field. “Hence the demand for relevant specialists to simulate Ethical Hacking security attacks and be ready to counter them,” she added.

Necessary training

Regarding the training demand for these profiles, it is diverse but always related, obviously, to the world of information technology. “Normally these roles have an extensive background in systems and, over time, have been specializing in security,” said Alvarez, although Mosquera says that besides being IT graduates, many professionals in the field of security are telecommunication engineers.

Of course, both agree on the importance of these experts having a series of certifications: “The most important are those such from ISACA, such as CISA, CISSP, and CISM, others like CEH, CRISC, and SIEM. They should also know how to handle tools with ad hoc security solutions at companies like Panda Security, Palo Alto Networks, Bluecoat Systems, Symantec, etc.,”, explains the spokeswoman from Michael Page Technology.

While the more technical positions require more practical training on certain products, they majority related to the management or security strategy, for example, the auditor, which should develop contingency plans and data protection, need more certifications linked to such development plans, with knowledge of the existing data protection rules (in Spain the LOPD), and the advising on information systems, etc.”, reveals Álvarez.

So, how much are they paid?

And now the big question – what is the salary for profiles related to information security? “The positions from technician to manager and expert, often range between €45,000 and €65,000 gross per year, depending on whether the position is for a consultancy or end company. In consulting, the categories above manager can reach €75,000. For the position of CISO, the salary range depends on the size of the department and consequently of the organization, but may be around between €80,000 and €120,000 gross,” reveals Mosquera.

Alvarez is more conservative regarding the salaries. “The lowest profile, the technician, can start from €30,000 gross per year, but if the professional has certifications, speaks English and relevant experience, the salary may be higher, from €35,000 to €37,000. Security engineers earn between €35,000 and €45,000 euros gross per year, the architects, who are the most powerful on a technical level, earn between €40,000 and €52,000, auditors start out with a salary of €42,000 and security managers start with €50,000″. The Adecco spokewoman also highlights a role that is on the rise in the security sector, that of presale management, whose salary is between €35,000 and €46,000 gross per year.

The trend in salaries of these experts, of course, is increasing. Keep in mind that many times it is not easy to find these profiles and, above all, retain them in companies that literally raffle the best. Therefore, another trend that is beginning to prevail in many companies is addressing HR policies aimed at retaining these profiles by other incentives such as training, and social benefits, etc.

Six challenges for the Chief Information Security Officer

CISO

The increasingly complex landscape that society’s mass digitization has established, driven by mobility and permanent connectivity, coupled with the new risks and threats that are proliferating in the market – which are becoming more and more sophisticated-, has created new challenges for the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). Let’s see what they are here.

  1. The technological scenario is diversifying… and becoming more complicated

Although it may seem hard to believe, but not long ago people exclusively used personal computers and networks highly controlled by the IT manager in a way that, just by protecting the organization’s perimeter, the company was safe from possible attacks. But the technology landscape today is very different and systems on the premises (both personal and located at the company) have given way, on many occasions, to systems based on the supply model, known as cloud computing.

On the other hand, data is no longer generated and stored only in the data center but, mostly on mobile devices which proliferate amongst employees and which, on many occasions, are not even provided by the company, but are personal (although they are also used for work purposes without the access control applications used previously). Even the corporate network’s intelligence has jumped from the data center to the professionals’ devices. Furthermore, the network today is starting to provide connection to the most varied devices, and increasingly will be taking into account the trend towards the so-called Internet of Things.

mobility

This scenario requires CISOs to have a new approach which responds to these new models (cloud) and practices (the famous BYOD or the use of personal devices in the work environment). It is essential they have very specific policies in this respect and, above all, they should inform their employees about them, explaining what action should be taken to avoid risking their company’s information. It is also essential to protect the mobile device from the data center with the new software tools (many of which are delivered as a service or cloud model), and those which manage mobile devices, provided by the security suppliers, whilst not forgetting to shield the internal network and corporate assets.

In addition, with regards to the adoption of the cloud, it is necessary to agree with the cloud providers which security controls must be applied and, of course, only upload assets and core systems to the cloud if the safety standards are the highest and comply with the relevant regulations of data protection, etc.

  1. Threats are getting more dangerous

The second but no less important challenge for CISOs is the change in the type of attacks and threats that has occurred in recent times. Cyberattacks that were conceived by hackers in the past to overcome an IT barrier have given way to persistent and targeted threats by groups of crooks whose purpose is information theft, espionage, or economic profit.

Chief Information Security Officers should be aware of this new reality and know that, although it is difficult to avoid the attacks, it is possible to mitigate its effect if they react quickly and they are ready. Experts recommend adopting a security approach based on methodology and betting on standards already recognized in the industry as CoBit or ISO 27000, and frequently conducting audits to see the degree of preparation when facing an incident of this type.

Improving risk management is possible, thanks to the constant monitoring of increasingly sophisticated threats that occur on computers and on the net. There are many tools already available on the market and their implementation and deployment (many work in service mode) is simple.

  1. Budgets still tight

Recent years have been characterized by a fall, or at least an important adjustment in IT budgets still suffered by many companies, even though the economic situation is beginning to improve. Fortunately the senior management of all kinds of companies is increasingly aware that spending on information security is absolutely necessary. So while it is a challenge to justify expenditure in the IT area, the truth is that for security managers this task is easier, especially after some notorious attacks produced in the industry like the one suffered by Sony Pictures, amongst others.

Proof of this is that the expense on security has continued to increase exponentially in recent times (even in times of crisis) and, according to Gartner, it will reach 76 billion dollars globally this year 2015, which is to say that it will increase more than 8% compared to the year before. The growing adoption of the previously mentioned mobility and cloud computing technologies, as well as social networks, will promote the use of new technologies and security services of up to the year 2016, according to the consultant.

  1. Scarcity of qualified personnel

The human resources related to information security are scarce and have a high cost, a reality which is another great challenge to the person in charge of this area. More problematic, however, is to be able to retain these professionals in a market where companies all bid for them. What can be done? It won’t hurt if the CISO, among his other roles, takes the time to promote talent and development promotion programs for employees in his area which wouldn’t only involve an economic consideration but would also bring benefits that go beyond that (flexible working environment, high level of training, etc.) in order to keep these so coveted and, at the same time, necessary employees.

talent

  1. Awareness and alignment with the business

Not only must the Chief Information Officer (CIO) be aligned with the business but also the Chief Information Security Officer. So that, beyond having solid knowledge in the field of communications and information technology and how to ensure security in applications and systems, the CIO will need to know how to guide your company to enter new markets, embrace new technologies and geographic areas in such a way that the business risks are mitigated as much as possible.

Having the ability to establish bridges between the business team and the systems engineers and application developers will also be a more than necessary task for the new Chief Information Officers.

  1. Make security invisible for the user

As is the case of IT in general, it is necessary to work to make the information security invisible and transparent for the organization and its users (employees, partners, suppliers, customers). The work involved behind the scenes (linking security with the business information) is hard but necessary.

How can I stop people from connecting to my Wi-Fi?

wifi

Paying for a fast and reliable Wi-Fi connection at home only to find out that your neighbor is stealing the signal from you is pretty annoying. Not only is it frustrating, but there is also the legal aspect to think of – everything that is viewed and downloaded by the Wi-Fi connection is your responsibility.

In the majority of cases it isn’t enough to protect your network by using the long and complicated password that comes with the router. Nor is it enough if you change it and create an even more difficult one.

If you want to know who is connecting to your Wi-Fi and how to stop your connection from being open to the public, the best thing you can do is use the Wi-Fi protector and monitor that you can find in the new line of 2016 Panda product.

protect wifi

This feature allows you to see all of the devices that are connected to your network and lets you block an intruder if you detect one. This will stop them from being able to reconnect again.

Furthermore, the monitor will provide you with the following information:

  • Wi-Fi networks that you are connected to: network name, Mac router address, encryption, signal strength.
  • Device information: name or Mac, manufacturer, date/time of connection, etc. It allows you to give the devices nicknames so as to recognize them easily.
  • Information on the saturation of the default channel: by changing to the channel recommended by Panda, you can increase your connection speed.
  • History of connections made with different devices. This lets you review who has connected to the network and identify intruders.

So, are you ready to protect your Wi-Fi connection?

Could someone be watching you through your webcam?

A few weeks ago in Toronto, Chelsea Clark and her boyfriend we’re snuggling in their own home watching Netflix together on his laptop. This sounds very similar to what lots of people do to relax at home in the evening. What makes this story stand out is that someone was in the room with them.

covering a webcam

Some people cover the webcam with a bandage to protect their privacy

Turns out that the next day when Clark looked at her Facebook page, she saw intimate images of herself and her boyfriend from the night before sent from an unknown person. The person, identified as Mahmoud Abdul in Cairo, Egypt, uploaded the pictures with a message that said “Really, cute couple [sic]”. The pictures were apparently taken from the laptop’s webcam.

This type of story is not new. This past March, a young man turned himself into the FBI and was sentenced to 18 months in federal prison for the computer hacking of Miss Teen USA, Cassidy Wolf. He watched her through her computer’s webcam for months, and took intimate photos of her in her own bedroom. He then attempted to blackmail her, asking for money for not posting the videos and photos.

You may remember the stories we shared with you on this blog about baby monitors that were hacked in Ohio and in Texas. In both incidents, a hacker took control of the monitor and screamed obscenities and shouted abuse at the toddlers while they were sleeping.

These are stories that make your hair stand up on the back of your neck, especially when you think about the lengths we go to while securing our homes from intruders. We lock the doors and windows, we install burglar alarms and motion-sensitive lighting — all to keep bad guys out. But these days, it’s what we bring inside our house that makes us vulnerable.

How to protect yourself from webcam or CCTV hacks

  • The best defense is to make sure that your computer is always up-to-date. Update your antivirus program to the latest version and keep your virus definitions current, update your browsers and plugins and patch your software, even well-known names like Adobe, Oracle, and Microsoft. Avast Software Updater can help you stay on top of all that.
  • Make sure your router is protected. Avast Home Network Security checks your home network for security issues to help prevent attacks on your router or devices. This video explains,

  • If you have an external camera, such as a CCTV device, then do what you can to understand how it works and what security measures are in place. This may include changing the default password and settings.
  • Many people tape a piece of paper or stick a bandage over their camera when they’re not using it.
  • As always, do not click on links in emails or other messages that are unexpected or come from strangers.

10 ways to ensure your security while shopping online

That online shopping increases day by day is not news. If you are an average user, you are probably already aware of the normal precautions and have taken them yourself. Ease of use and convenience when browsing for different products or searching for the best prices has improved greatly. However, at the same time, online threats and frauds have also increased exponentially. Therefore, from time to time, all of us must review our behavior and think again if our habits are secure.

Follow a few simple tips to stay safe while shopping online

Follow a few simple tips to stay safe while shopping online

Best practices while online shopping

1. Use your own computer or mobile device when shopping. It seems obvious, but you cannot trust a computer that does not belong to you, even your best friend’s computer. It might not have appropriate protection and it could already be compromised by malware. So, always use your own device, install an anti-malware solution and before you start doing anything that involves your money, scan your network to discover if it is safe.

2. Use your own Wi-Fi connection with a strong password. You must use a non-standard password for your network and router. Router vulnerabilities and weak passwords allow cybercrooks easy access to your home network. This sounds complicated, but it’s really not. Avast Home Network Security can help you by guiding you to the manufacturer’s website. The blog post will help you understand what it does and why it’s important.

3. If you cannot avoid using public/open Wi-Fi, use a VPN to encrypt your communications, or it could be eavesdropped on and your financial data and credit card credentials could be stolen. Avast SecureLine VPN offers strong encryption for Windows, Mac, and Android devices.

4. Choose your online store wisely. Focus on the best-known ones, where you can read other consumers’ opinions and reviews. We prefer the official site, especially if you are buying apps, so you can avoid fakes or other software bundled together with what you want. Nevertheless, this is not enough. Rogue apps have been know to slip into official stores like Google Play or Windows Store. You really need to have a security app installed and updated in your device: why don’t you do it right now with free Avast Mobile Security?

5. Look for a safe site. Nowadays, all the safe sites use HTTPS protocol (you know, that little padlock in the address bar of our browser). Avast products also scan your HTTPS traffic and prevents many threats. Do not give personal information: common sense is a good security measure, why would you need to inform your birthday to the online store? Moreover, while you are browsing, take your time to check refund policies, privacy policy (what do they do with your personal data), and product guarantees.

6. Search for the best price. You may find the free tool Avast SafePrice (available as a browser plugin called Avast Online Security) useful in helping you find the best offers online in trusted stores.

7. Do not use the same password for all your accounts. You must be aware that if you have an account or have done business with any company that falls victim to a breach, hackers sell your passwords to other cybercrooks. Use different passwords in different sites and a password service.

8. Keep your own computer up-to-date. A lot of security issues start when hackers exploit vulnerabilities in the software installed in your computer. The more popular software they are, the better for hackers. Adobe, Oracle, and Microsoft are only recent examples.

9. Keep a paper trail. Print or save your transaction records; it will be easier for any post sale issue. While you have a trail, you can check your credit card statement to make sure transactions match and if there were unauthorized charges.

10. Prefer safe payment options like your credit card or PayPal. Do not send money directly to the store or vendor. Credit cards have built-in protections and you can receive a refund in case of fraud.

Buying smartwatches – The latest craze that’s also a security risk

smartwatches

This is the latest must-have in mobile devices and the more its popularity increases, the more our confidential information is at risk – as they become more popular, smartwatches are now becoming the latest target for cybercriminals.

At the end of the day, millions of users will store their personal data on these devices that act as a bridge with our mobile phones. Therefore, the security of wearable fashion should be a matter of vital importance for manufacturers.

However, the current proliferation of smartwatches ​​is far from being as secure as we would expect from a device that is setting out to become popular worldwide.

According to a recent study carried out by HP, the majority of smartwatches that are currently available are at risk of cybernetic attacks.

Further proof of this is shown in the recent smartwatch that was unveiled by Apple. At the moment, there is nothing to prevent the password of the Apple Watch from being deleted and a stolen device being used to make purchases.

However, Apple is not the only manufacturer of smartwatches that needs to improve the security of its wearable products. In fact, the details of the study are telling – 100% of the analyzed models have a vulnerability that threatens user data. The main weak point is the absence of a double authentication process which, undoubtedly, would make the product more secure.

In addition, researchers found unsafe web interfaces and outdated methods of data encryption on the devices. To make matters worse, 70% of the watches analyzed have problems with their firmware updates.

smartwatch

Beyond the risk to the information gathered by the smartwatches (passwords, bank details and even the heartbeat of its owner), the vulnerabilities of these devices could be used by cybercriminals to access networks and computers connected to the smartwatch. That means that the security of these watches may impact the rest of our technological lives.

“It is vital that we take precautions when sending confidential information or when we wear smartwatches to work”, explained the people behind the study.

For now, there is little that users can do to make their smartwatch completely secure. Therefore, it is best to check which model offers more tools to protect your information and, above all, take special caution when sharing confidential information with your wearable devices.
