Spyware: Network Associates goes after Spyware with McAfee 9 |
|
|
Network Associates's McAfee VirusScan version 9 will be going after spyware. This new version of VirusScan will look at program dependencies and what will inform the user if any programs will break. While NAI is adding more performance and keeping VirusScan's footprint small, it promises to continue doing so while other companies like Symantec steadily bulk up their products that demand more memory and faster CPU. What out bad guys?

Anonymous writes "All the surveillance in the world isn't doing a lot of good, but it is work. People need to do something and the larger part of equipment , in this networking industry, is the real thing in espionage. If you had been under IP surveillance for a length of time, say two-and-a-half years, you now know that the boss and all other personnel who know that incoming/outgoing traffic is monitored use the services carefully and encrypt all sensitive information.

Leery spouses spy on each other online
NEW YORK (AP) --Suspicious husbands and wives who once might have hired a private eye to find out if their spouses were cheating are now using do-it-yourself technology to check on an increasingly popular hideaway for trysts -- the Internet.
Divorce lawyers and marriage counselors say Internet-abetted infidelity, romance originating in chat rooms and fueled by e-mails, is now one of the leading factors in marital breakdowns.
With the surge in cyberaffairs, a new market for electronic spying has developed. Web sites such as Chatcheaters.com and InfidelityCheck.org describe an array of surveillance products capable of tracking a cheating spouse's e-mails and online chats, including some that can monitor each key stroke in real time.

A federal appeals panel ruled this week that the government did not violate search and seizure laws when it used evidence that a hacker gathered to establish a child pornography case.
The opinion reverses a lower court ruling in which a U.S. District Court judge in Virginia suppressed the evidence, saying the government had violated a defendant's rights.
The decision stems from a case in which a hacker uploaded a file to a child porn newsgroup that made it possible to track who downloaded files from the service. The uploaded file contained the SubSeven virus, which the hacker used to remotely search people's computers for porn.

Internet telephone calls are fast becoming a national security threat that must be countered with new police wiretap rules, according to an FBI proposal presented quietly to regulators this month.
Representatives of the FBI's Electronic Surveillance Technology Section in Chantilly, Va., have met at least twice in the past three weeks with senior officials of the Federal Communications Commission to lobby for proposed new Internet eavesdropping rules. The FBI-drafted plan seeks to force broadband providers to provide more efficient, standardized surveillance facilities and could substantially change the way that cable modem and DSL (digital subscriber line) companies operate.
