1. Can you buy your colleague's whereabouts for 700 yuan? Security experts: It's true! There are other things you don't know

On December 12, an article in Southern Metropolis Daily titled "Horror! A Southern Metropolis reporter bought 11 records of his colleague's whereabouts, including flight bookings, hotel rooms, and Internet cafes, for 700 yuan" went viral on WeChat Moments. It described some terrifying investigative phenomena: for a few hundred yuan, you can buy a full set of leaked personal information about a person, including deposit records of the four major banks, real-time mobile phone positioning, mobile phone call records... You can even find mobile phone positioning. The "best service" is that there is third-party software to provide guarantees for such services.

So, after reading this article, the editor quickly contacted the security researchers at White Hat to confirm some facts in the article and learned some "remarkable" things.

2. The latest theft method: The money in the ETC was swiped away by the POS machine remotely, and experts have confirmed it!

Recently, a "supernatural method" of making money has been circulating in the circle of friends.

Use a POS machine in front of the windshield of any car equipped with an ETC device, enter the card payment amount of 100 yuan, then swipe it lightly and click confirm to deduct the money from the ETC express card.

This is simply a perverted method of stealing.

Moreover, someone actually recorded a video of stealing ETC cards using this method.

Leifeng.com (public account: Leifeng.com) Zhaike Channel immediately asked Yang Qing, the head of 360 Radio Security Research Department (Unicorn Team), about the feasibility of this theft method.

After Leifeng.com exclusively analyzed the online rumor of using POS machines to steal ETC cards yesterday (for details, please see the latest theft method: the money in ETC was swiped away by POS machines, experts have confirmed it!), UnionPay made an official response:

The small-amount PIN-free and signature-free service is an innovative service launched by China UnionPay and its member institutions to meet the needs of cardholders and merchants for fast payment services. It is welcomed by more and more cardholders and high-quality merchants. While providing payment convenience for cardholders, the service also allows cardholders to use their cards with confidence through a series of safeguards such as a whitelist of high-quality merchants, transaction limits, and transaction monitoring. In addition, China UnionPay and commercial banks have provided cardholders with a special risk protection service for small-amount PIN-free and signature-free transactions. Once a cardholder discovers an abnormal double-free transaction, he or she can contact the issuing bank to apply for compensation as soon as possible.

4. Is Tianyi a virus? Leifeng.com’s exclusive analysis of the “campus client Trojan horse incident”

On December 7, Xiao Jin (pseudonym), a senior student at a university in Jiangsu, was preparing his final paper when his computer suddenly displayed a blue screen and automatically restarted. At first he did not take it seriously, but when he turned around he found that his roommate's computer had also restarted three or four times within ten minutes, which caught his attention.

Starting from December 7, students from Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Nanjing Institute of Technology, Nanjing Xiaozhuang University and other universities have successively stated that they have been "infected". The affected students have spontaneously formed QQ groups such as the "Blue Screen Victims Association" and began to seek help and solutions from the outside world.

They found that most of the computers with blue screens had a common feature: they were all running Windows 10 and had installed a software called "Tianyi Campus Client" under China Telecom. So they speculated: Could the problem lie with the Win 10 system and the Tianyi Campus Client?

After the Zhaike Channel obtained a sample of the "problematic client" from a party involved, it asked Wang Liang, a network expert with many years of experience in malware detection and elimination and the head of the 360 ​​anti-virus team, to conduct a technical analysis.

5. What is the "unsolvable virus" that caused 360 to issue a big warning? | In-depth

This virus is extremely vicious and once you are infected, there is almost no antidote.

Only when you lose something do you know how to cherish it.

This is usually taught by your ex-girlfriend, but a virus can also teach you this.

In China, at least 4.97 million computers have been infected with this terrible virus.

Those who like to watch zombie movies are familiar with a scene: "The protagonist is at home and living a peaceful life, while a street away, the world is already bloody." If you still don't know what I'm talking about after reading this, then please look back, it is very likely that you are already under the gaze of countless zombies...

What exactly is the virus that made 360 ​​“lose its color”?

You're here with us, pay the money before tomorrow, or we'll kill you!

This clichéd and cheesy plot can almost summarize the routine of this virus. But believe me, when the clichéd plot really happens to you, your experience will be very different.

This virus is called "ransomware virus".
