Wireless and other Emerging Compromises
November 18th, 2007 by admin Posted in Credit Card Fraud, Wireless
The Associated Press covered the AirDefense study showing that many retailers are susceptible to data compromise. I have been saying this for many years now that the greatest risks to retail merchants are: insecure POS systems, remote management, and insecure wireless networks.
It seems that there is also a new threat in town, MPack (wiki). This is custom commercial malware with anti-virus like updates. Read an interview with the developer, coverage by The Register.
