Resources / News from the Outside World / VeriSign Hacked Several Times, Won't Reveal the Details
|
on: February 03, 2012, 10:29:20 AM
|
Company buried fact of 2010 incidents involving its Internet domain service in a fall 2011 financial filing, which came to light only this week
In October 2011, Internet infrastructure firm VeriSign released its usual quarterly report. Buried in the 50-page filing to the SEC was the revelation that the company had been breached multiple times the previous year.
The incidents came to light only today, when news service Reuters found the information during an investigation of whether public companies were disclosing breach incidents in their financial statements. VeriSign's account of the incidents carried few details, and the company refused additional comment.
In the filing, VeriSign stated, "In 2010, the company faced several successful attacks against its corporate network in which access was gained to information on a small portion of our computers and servers. We have investigated and do not believe these attacks breached the servers that support our DNS (Domain Name System) network."
VeriSign manages the Domain Name System for the .com and .net top-level domains, as well as the .name, .cc, and .tv domains. In addition, at the time of the attacks, the company sold and managed a large digital signature service, selling SSL and EV (extended validation) signatures that are used to secure websites and email and to sign code. The Internet security business unit was sold to Symantec in 2010.
Although the announcement comes after the revelation of breaches in 2011 of other Internet infrastructure firms -- such as the now-defunct DigiNotar, rival Comodo, and security giant RSA -- the VeriSign hacks occurred months before those breaches. If VeriSign had disclosed the attacks in 2010, Comodo and other hacked firms might have been able to improve their own security in time to detect the attacks they experienced in 2011, said Melih Abdulhayoglu, Comodo's CEO.
"We would have been on a higher alert, it would have changed a lot of things," Abdulhayoglu noted. "I'm sure that other CAs [certificate authorities] would have taken the hint and done something about it."

WorldToor Dec 10 - 21, 2012 AntarcticaTake a once in a lifetime journey to THE END OF THE WORLDWorldToor is organized by ToorCon, Inc. who also runs ToorCon San Diego, ToorCon Seattle, and ToorCamp. The ToorCon crew is dedicated to throwing some of the most unique and extreme hacker / computer security conferences in the world. With over 13 years of experience organizing events, ToorCon decided that it was about time to organize a hacker conference combined with a cruise, and couldn't find a better time than the 2012 Mayan Apocolypse (End of the World) and a better location (End of the World). Thus, WorldToor was born as the first hacker conference on a cruise (that we know of) and in Antarctica (as far as we can tell) and quite possibly the last hacker conference (if the Mayans were right).

ToorCamp 2012 August 8 - 12, 2012 Neah Bay, WAToorCamp is back! We're preparing for ToorCamp 2012 to happen on August 8th-12th, immediately after Defcon & Blackhat. Since the last ToorCamp (the first large-scale hacker camp in US history) was a bit extreme, we've decided that this year's camp is going to be all about relaxing and taking it easy -- consider it a vacation after your Defcon vacation. The venue features beach side camping and 26 cabins with full utilities and plenty of space for villages, talks and workshops.

HOPE Number Nine July 13 - 15, 2012 New York City, NYHOPE Number Nine will be taking place on July 13, 14, and 15, 2012 at the Hotel Pennsylvania in New York City. H.O.P.E. stands for Hackers On Planet Earth, one of the most creative and diverse hacker events in the world that's been happening since 1994. We're planning three full days and nights of activities, including more of the provocative and enlightening speakers that the HOPE conferences are known for. In addition, we have access to a massive amount of space to put together all sorts of hacker projects and assorted fun stuff. In the past we've had huge hackerspace villages, film festivals, Segway rides, lockpicking villages, a wide variety of vendors, art installations, live radio, vintage computers, robots, ham radio installations, electronics workshops, book signings, and the country's biggest supply of Club-Mate. Now imagine all of that happening right in the middle of New York City, across the street from Penn Station and down the block from the Empire State Building. It seems impossible, but with the hard work and dedication of our huge volunteer staff, we're able to pull it off. You can also become part of the magic, whether by attending or volunteering to help run the event with us. We also encourage attendees to submit ideas for talks or to suggest projects that we may not have ever thought of before.
