			<description><![CDATA[This is a somewhat astonishing news, and once again the demonstration that alternative thinking might be the way to solve apparently unsolvable cases.
	I just report what was written by the hacker himself on his website.
	Can anyone help?
	&amp;nbsp;

	

	Rome, September 10th 2012
	
	I have a brain cancer.
	
	Yesterday I went to get my digital medical records: I have to show them to many doctors.
	
	Sadly they were in a closed, proprietary format and, thus, I could not open them using my computer, or send them in this format to all the people who could have saved my life.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[10 years ago Zone-H opened, a little website with security news and a &amp;quot;cybercrime archive&amp;quot; which quickly became success story. The goals of Zone-H were to follow security trends and analyze the growing importance of hacktivism.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[As some of you probably know, Zone-H has been banned from some indian ISPs following the E2-labs scandals and a lawsuit from E2labs and Zaki Qureshey in an indian court, who claimed our documents and articles were defamatory (great joke!).

	Zone-H was unable to defend itself as we didn&amp;#39;t receive any notification from the court. What is even funnier (scarier?), is that bloggernews.net has also been banned...]]></description>

	This article is a result of the common research of Jakub Alimov from the Seznam.cz and minor from Zone-h.org. If you have anything to say about this, write to comments &#91;a} zone-h{dot&#93;org. The topic was presented at the SPI conference in Brno/CZ.

	While protecting the users from receiving a huge amount of the unsolicited bulk mail, a new attacking scenario against the DNS servers was observed. The scenario involves sending the spam messages to the SMTP services with a big bandwidth.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Dear friends, in these days we all turned our minds to Japan, to the Japanese people, some of them are our friends, or some of our friends live in Japan.
	We would like to express the condolences to the families which lost their family members. We are deeply concerned about the injuries and losses caused by the earthquake set, tsunami flooding and the nuclear catastrophe.
	
	Nevertheless, we have to express also our anger. We already recorded first set of the scam emails asking the unaware users to donate for the charity, but as usual the money will never come to the victims.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Last year the Zone-H archived a sad record number, we archived 1.419.203 websites defacements.
	Why and how this is happening?
	If you are looking at on the stats, the things remain the same: file inclusion, sql injection, webdav attacks and shares misconfiguration are still at the top ranks of the attack methods used by the defacers to gain first access into the server. As an important factor influencing the stats we consider the fact that last year brought a very high number of the local linux kernel exploits.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[First of all, we would like to emphasize that Zone-H is not related to any party in the Wikileaks case. We are do not agree nor disagree with any action happened, we just want to share our opinion on the forthcomming events. Already many news media released information about the cables, sources, how it happened etc.

	But now, it is clear that the Wikileaks will not stop to publish the cables. There are plenty of the mirrors all around the globe and information are shared over the Facebook and Twitter. Also the arrest of Julian Assange can&amp;#39;t stop the day-by-day publishing of the cables.]]></description>

			<guid><![CDATA[http://www.zone-h.org/news/id/4735]]></guid>
			<description><![CDATA[When Zone-H started back in 2002, we were receiving an average of 2500 defacements monthly, this number keeps on increasing year after year. For example, the last month we registered over 95.000 defacements, while we only had 60.000 in 2009 for the same period.
	
	What we can also say from these numbers is that the methods used are still the same: most of the vulnerabilities exploited are on web applications. We also know from what we monitored that registrar attacks greatly increased the past years even if this number is quite low compared to the total of attacks.]]></description>
