South Korea was trying to determine whether it was this pernicious worm which had attacked government computers and Hong Kong also reported at least one confirmed infection. http://www.siliconvalley.com/docs/news/reuters_wire/1393232l.htm http://www.zdnet.com/zdnn/stories/news/0,4586,2802155,00.html Damage from Code Red worms continuing to add up http://www.siliconvalley.com/docs/news/tech/077811.htm Code Red Continues To Eat Away At Qwest DSL http://www.newsbytes.com/news/01/168777.html 'Code Red II' slows parts of the Net http://www.cnn.com/2001/TECH/internet/08/07/code.red.two/index.html Gov't says national security at risk if keystroke logger is detailed The Justice Department claims that revealing details about how it bugged the computer of an accused bookie could threaten national security. Disclosing material about the ``key logger system'' the FBI installed on the computer of Nicodemo S. Scarfo Jr. would hurt ongoing investigations of foreign intelligence agents and endanger the lives of U.S. agents, according to court documents filed by the government. The Justice Department claims the system must remain secret to keep hostile intelligence officers from employing ``counter- surveillance tactics to thwart law enforcement.'' http://www.siliconvalley.com/docs/news/tech/012145.htm Judge says FBI must reveal computer snooping technique http://www.siliconvalley.com/docs/news/tech/031040.htm http://www.usatoday.com/life/cyber/tech/2001-08-07-fbi-surveillance-trial.htm Feds: Spy Tool Is a Secret http://www.wired.com/news/politics/0,1283,45851,00.html Schoolboy's book on ethical hacking an online hit The Unofficial Guide to Ethical Hacking has achieved pre-publication orders of 5,000 copies on the Internet. A book on ethical computer hacking written by a 16- year-old Indian schoolboy has sold 5,000 copies online, before it reached the shelves of bookshops around the world. The author, Ankit Fadia, wrote the book at the tender age of 14, and is the youngest author for Macmillan publishers in the company's 110 years of history. The Unofficial Guide to Ethical Hacking runs into 620 pages, and gives an in-depth look into hacking techniques, endorsing ethical hacking as a "vaccination" for "fighting evil with evil". http://news.zdnet.co.uk/story/0,,t269-s2092686,00.html Study backs CIA experiment with tech firm The CIA's experiment with In-Q-Tel, a venture capital firm it started in 1999 to develop private-sector technologies for use in the intelligence world, ''makes good business sense'' and should continue, a congressionally mandated study said Tuesday. But the Central Intelligence Agency needs to streamline its bureaucratic process for approving new technologies for its classified computer system to make it quicker and easier to get them in the door at the spy agency, the report said. http://www.siliconvalley.com/docs/news/tech/030429.htm ------------------------ Yahoo!
