Hackers Bypass Google’s Two-Factor Authentication By Taking Social Engineering To A New level You may have read reports of Gmail accounts being hacked despite the user having enabled the famed Google 2FA or two-factor authentication. This is because hackers are employing a new strategy to lure gullible users to hand over the 2FA code. Some people can be tricked into disclosing their two-factor authentication code to criminals, as there is a new sly trick that makes them think that are in fact protecting their accounts while doing so. Two-factor authentication (referred 2FA) is an important safety measure current mainstream of online services, from banks to Google, Facebook, and government agencies who have gradually adopted the security measures. In the two-factor authentication to protect the account needs to log operation when you need to enter a verification code to send SMS text messages, or even enter the correct password will be blocked by the system.

WANNACRY:- French researchers find way to unlock WANNACRY without ransom A hooded man holds a laptop computer as blue screen with an exclamation mark is projected on him in this illustration picture taken on May 13, 2017. French researchers said on Friday they had found a last-chance way for technicians to save Windows files encrypted by WANNACRY racing against a deadline as the ransomware threatens to start locking up victims' computers first infected a week ago. WANNACRY, which started to sweep round the globe last Friday and has infected more than 300,000 computers in 150 nations, threatens to lock out victims who have not paid a sum of $300 to $600 within one week of infection. A loose-knit team of security researchers scattered across the globe said they had collaborated to develop a workaround to unlock the encryption key for files hit in the global attack, which several independent security researchers have confirmed. The researchers cautioned that...

WHAT IS RANSOMWARE ? Ransomware   is a type of   malicious software   that blocks access to the victim's data or threatens to publish or delete it until a   ransom   is paid. Any action is possible once a device or system is infected and there is no guarantee that paying the ransom will return access or not delete the data. Simple ransomware may lock the system in a way which is not difficult for a knowledgeable person to reverse. , in which it   encrypts the victim's files, making them inaccessible, and demands a ransom payment to decrypt them. The ransomware may also encrypt the computer's   Master File Table l  (MFT)   or the entire hard drive.   Thus, ransomware is a   denial-of-access attack   that prevents computer users from accessing files   since it is   intractable   to decrypt the files without the decryption   key. Ransomware attacks are typically carried out using a   Trojan   t...
