Fair Quotes
I'm not a malicious person. When you get past the tattoos and leather, I give people a fair shake. There are periods when I've sowed some wild oats, no doubt about it. And I can party with some of the heavyweights. There are some stories about me that, yeah, where there's smoke there's fire. But sometimes the smoke is just smoke.

Appearance Quotes
There are two re-entries fooling users this month. The Elf Bowling hoax, which has made a festive re-appearance, warns users that the game is infected with a virus and should be deleted immediately upon receipt. This hoax is essentially harmless, but serves as a reminder to companies that they should explain to employees the danger of distributing executable files. The game, while not a malicious threat, can divert employees from doing real work.

Actual Quotes
He was fortunate to stay on the pitch. I don't think it was a malicious arm he raised to hurt somebody but it was raised and with that the boy has collided into it. They could have had easy claims for him to go off the pitch. I think the deciding factor today was the actual match official. I felt his performance today was at times very good. It was a little bit of a itchy game, there was a few tackles going in but he dealt with most of it positively and correctly and that was a crucial decision. I have to praise him for that.

Affecting Quotes
Wireless technology has changed the way we communicate and how we conduct business. While this technology expands accessibility and productivity, it introduces complexity and security risk as wireless networks and handheld mobile devices become a new target for hackers and thieves looking to disrupt usage and steal personal information and business-critical data. The increased risk of information theft and malicious code affecting handheld mobile devices demands more education and vigilance from consumers and small office/home office (SOHO) users alike.

Add Quotes
Viruses, described as threats that add their code to other executable files in order to carry out their malicious actions, have reached rock bottom this year. The aim of creators of this type of threat is usually fame. However, legislation against computer crime in many countries worldwide has led to a dramatic drop in the number of new specimens of this type. Now, almost nobody runs the risk if it does not lead to financial gain.

Computers Quotes
Two years ago, the US accounted for over half of all spam sent to the world - now it is less than a quarter, evidence which confirms that more Americans are waking up to the need to protect their home computers from malicious hackers. More and more viruses, worms and Trojan horses are being designed to take over innocent users' computers with the intention of stealing information and sending out junk email campaigns.

Affect Quotes
When you're running Windows on a Mac, you're as vulnerable as any Windows user. An interesting question is, would a malicious Windows program affect Mac files on the same computer? It's theoretically possible but extremely difficult to pull off and would reach a very small audience in the Mac market.

Apple Quotes
The question on everyone's lips is - when will we see the next one, and will it have a more malicious payload. Apple Mac users need to be just as careful about protecting their computers with anti-virus software, firewalls and security patches as their friends and colleagues using Windows.

Access Quotes
Two of the most prevalent threats to Windows security are malicious software attacks and the fact that end-users must often run with administrative rights. Protection Manager is the first solution capable of defeating those threats through an approach that prevents all unauthorized applications from executing, merged with a least privilege environment that provides the minimum necessary user access rights.

Across Quotes
Every month Microsoft releases security patches for its software - and it's often a race against time for companies to roll these patches out across their business before a hacker takes advantage of the vulnerability. A security hole which allows hackers with malicious intentions to run code on Windows or Apple Mac computers is very serious, and all affected users should ensure they have defended their systems.

Absolutely Quotes
Computer loss and theft represents a huge security risk to both individuals and corporations. It's absolutely imperative to safeguard computing assets because of the direct financial implications as well as the liability of exposure and malicious use of the data that the computer holds. A single $1,000 laptop may hold credit card numbers, private client information and years of accumulated knowledge that could cost an organization millions of dollars in business and lawsuits. A few simple steps can mitigate risk and prevent a devastating loss.

Becomes Quotes
Fixed mobile convergence creates a requirement for a new category of products to secure the IP services edge. With convergence, previously closed and protected networks such as mobile and cable, become open to the public Internet, making them extremely vulnerable to malicious attacks. While creating enormous new revenue-enhancing opportunities for service providers, the new IP services edge also becomes a dangerous frontier if left unsecured.

Access Quotes
These emails do not really come from Amazon, and clicking on the attached file will install a malicious Trojan horse on your computer. Once it has slipped under your radar, this Trojan is capable of downloading further malicious code from the internet, giving hackers access to your PC. A real message from Amazon would never contain an attached executable file, and people should always think carefully before running unsolicited code on their computer.

Across Quotes
Someone was sitting across the street from the school taking pictures of kids as they got on and off school busses. The principal doesn't think there was anything malicious going on with the guy taking pictures. She thought it was someone who was unfamiliar with school policy. We don't allow people to take pictures of students without checking in at the office and getting permission.

Degree Quotes
This is relatively easy to exploit. It takes some degree of social engineering -- the attacker would have to draw people to a malicious Web site -- but after that, there's no further intervention required. An attacker could leverage this to write to a file on the hard drive. And once you can write to a person's machine, you have full control.

Absolutely Quotes
This is a malicious attempt to harass our family. These allegations have been fully reviewed by child protective authorities and medical professionals and found to be absolutely false. This matter has been turned over to the district attorney's office for prosecution of the individual(s) responsible for the false accusation.

Activity Quotes
Although IM threats were down this month, companies need to be aware that we view this as a temporary lull in activity and that the threats are going to get more malicious and sophisticated with time. February saw the first ever worm spread over IM networks using the Apple OS X platform. This speaks to the increased sophistication and ways that virus writers are trying to develop worms for different networks and operating systems. Companies need to know that unless they currently have an IM security solution in place, they are leaving their networks open to security attacks.

Code Quotes
This is yet another example of the continuing spread of malicious code onto other platforms. While there is no known exploit at this time, users are encouraged to turn off the 'Open safe files after downloading option' in their Safari browsers and watch for further information from Apple.

Access Quotes
At any given moment, kids are more likely to be online than adults. Hackers know this and lure children with flashy pop-ups and fake prizes that are really malicious attacks intended to give the hacker control of the computer and access to personal information such as passwords and credit card numbers. I applaud Zone Labs for making an effort to help educate families about the dangers online.

Additional Quotes
It's hard to say at the moment, since this is just the beginning. But if SANS' report is accurate, I think we'll see additional targeted attacks where spam is sent to users at a specific organization in the hope that someone clicks on the link and downloads the malicious code so the attacker can infiltrate the network.

Activity Quotes
In an environment providing real-time information to media, any security incident, triggered with malicious intent or not, can have disastrous consequences. For a highly visible event like the Olympic Games, the challenge of IT security is not only to prevent unauthorized people from accessing the systems, but to control the activity of authorized people inside the games' network.

Benefits Quotes
Honest software resellers and consumers are hurt by illegitimate resellers. Counterfeiters offer flawed and illegal products at the fraction of the cost of genuine software. That unfairly and unjustly causes honest businesses to suffer financially. Consumers who unwittingly purchase counterfeit software are consequently cheated of the benefits that legitimate products afford, such as technical support and product updates. Moreover, illegal and illicit software may make it easier for consumers to unknowingly load dangerous, malicious code onto their systems.
