Windows 10 Warning: 250M Account Trojan Can Disable Windows Defender

Trickbot is not a new threat, but it is an evolving one. The latest twist of the banking Trojan knife as far as Windows 10 users are concerned is the addition of new methods to not only evade but actually disable Windows Defender security protection. As  reported  on July 14 in  Forbes , Trickbot is a particularly stealthy banking Trojan that has been around since 2016. Since then, it was thought to have compromised no less than 250 million email accounts in an effort to distribute the malware payload. That payload includes the stealing of online banking credentials and cryptocurrency wallets. Microsoft has always been front and center as far as Trickbot attack campaigns are concerned, with weaponized Word and Excel files being a favored approach. The  latest campaign  is targeting Windows 10 users and implementing a highly detailed and convincing, but fake nonetheless, Office 365 page to prompt for browser updates that install the Trojan itself.

Immerse yourself in Coding 101 instruction, and pay what you want

Learning to code sounds like a fairly straight line idea. You learn about coding, then you know how right? Well, it isn’t always that easy, because there are just so darn many ways to code a web page or app. There are literally a dozen different ways you could piece your idea together, and you’ll learn all of ‘em with this Learn to Code 2017 bundle of courses.
Best of all, you can get the entire package for any price you want to pay, thanks to TNW Deals.
Your education begins once you’ve paid any price at all. That investment will get you the introductory course JavaScript Programming Complete, a complete walkthrough of JavaScript, one of the most commonly used programming languages in all of the web development.
But as we’ve already discussed, there is a myriad of ways to create online. Therefore, once you’ve matched the average payment offered by other students like yourself, you’ll immediately get access to nine more courses, unlocking a treasure trove of programming tools and philosophies.
You’ll start by adding a host of other programming languages to your arsenal. In addition to JavaScript, you’ll be learning Python (The Complete Python Course: Beginner to Advanced), Ruby (Professional Rails Code Along), Scala (Learn By Example: Scala) and Go (Learn How To Code: Google’s Go Programming Language). You’ll understand the advantages to use each language in your given project, an exercise which will be reinforced by completing a handful of separate projects with each (Projects in Programming Languages: Ruby, Python, Java).
You’ll also tackle the intricacies of app building by learning the Angular 2 framework (Learn Angular 2 from Beginner to Advanced), the Apple method (How to Make a Freaking iPhone App: iOS 10 and Swift 3), Git for streamlining and organizing your build (Git Complete Mastery With GitHub: 100% Hands-on Git Guide), and even an overview of several disciplines (The Complete Web Developer Masterclass: Beginner To Advanced).
By the time you’re done, there’s nothing you won’t know how to build — and you can get this $1,573 package of goodies for virtual pennies if you grab this deal now.

SmartBillions Challenges Hackers with 1,500 Ether Reward, Gets Hacked and Pulls Most of It Out

SmartBillions, a so-called fully decentralized and transparent lottery system, managed by an Ethereum smart contract, recently challenged hackers to get through its smart contract’s security, and added a 1,500  Ether  ($450,000) reward to be collected by anyone that managed to compromise it. The goal was to demonstrate “the SmartBillions lottery smart contract’s comprehensive security.” Initially, according to a  press release , the prize was to be collected by any hacker that managed to break into the smart contract and withdraw the funds, as a way to prove how serious the team took investor protection. The team stated: “The development team is so confident in their product and its security that they will risk their own funds (1500 ETH), to demonstrate its safety.” A few days later, the issued challenge seemingly backfired, as a hacker did manage to compromise the smart contract. The hacker, according to a  Reddit thread , essentially managed to game th...

How To Convert DEB Packages Into Arch Linux Packages

We already learned how to  build packages for multiple platforms , and how to  build packages from source . Today, we are going to learn how to convert DEB packages into Arch Linux packages. You might ask,  AUR is the large software repository on the planet, and almost all software are available in it. Why would I need to convert a DEB package into Arch Linux package? True! However, some packages cannot be compiled (closed source packages) or cannot be built from AUR for various reasons like error during compiling or unavailable files. Or, the developer is too lazy to build a package in AUR or s/he doesn’t like to create an AUR package. In such cases, we can use this quick and dirty method to convert DEB packages into Arch Linux packages. Debtap – Convert DEB Packages Into Arch Linux Packages For this purpose, we are going to use an utility called  “Debtap” . It stands  DEB   T o  A rch (Linux)  P ackage.
