Researchers' illustration of how their "socialbots" attack social networks.Programs designed to resemble humans infiltrated Facebook recently and made off with 250 gigabytes of personal information belonging to thousands of the social network's users, researchers said in an academic paper released today.

The eight-week study was designed to evaluate how vulnerable online social networks are to large-scale infiltrations by programs designed to mimic real users, researchers from the University of British Columbia Vancouver said in the paper(PDF), titled "The Socialbot Network: When bots socialize for fame and money." 

Soldier Spy Eyes a Jackpot: Facebook credentials are the most stolen21 September, 2011

Trend MicroTrend Micro Incorporated made known its investigation of a cybercriminal, a Russian national in his 20s who has been targeting users in the US and Asia.

The attacker goes by the name ‘Soldier’ in the criminal underground. He has been successful in increasing his network of infected users and has also been known to buy traffic from other cybercriminals. Besides using malware to steal money from the compromised accounts, user security credentials were also stolen.

During the investigation, Trend Micro discovered that the cybercriminal uses various criminal toolkits including SpyEye and ZeuS, as well as exploit kits such as those for driving blackhat SEO to propagate his SpyEye/ZeuS binaries.

Trend Micro Senior Threat Researcher Loucif Kharouni, who has been part of the team investigating Soldier said, “Using the SpyEye criminal toolkit, money mules and an accomplice believed to reside in Hollywood, USA, Soldier stole over $3.2 million US dollars in 6 Soldier stole over $3.2 million US dollars in 6 monthsmonths starting January 2011, which equates to approximately $533 thousand dollars per month, or $17 thousand dollars a day! He has really hit the jackpot.”

Facebook sees 600,000 compromised logins per day—0.06% of all logins

By Jon Brodkin | Published about a month agoFacebook has released a statistic showing that fewer than one-tenth of one percent of logins into the social network are compromised.

But since more than 1 billion Facebook logins occur each day, that could add up to 600,000 breaches every 24 hours.

Specifically, an infographic in an official Facebook post introducing new security tools states that “Only .06 percent of over 1 billion logins per day are compromised.” Security firm Sophos was intrigued enough by that statistic to post its own analysis.

Vi elsker Facebook, men…sociale medier spreder spyware, virus, orme og trojanske heste som aldrig før.

Sidste år lavede XX Security en undersøgelse, der viste, at Facebook, Twitter og YouTube udgør den største risiko indenfor angreb på personfølsomme oplysninger via malware.

De tre sociale medier, der bærer størst malware risici:

Facebook: 71.6 %Facebook: 71.6 %Twitter: 51%Twitter: 51%YouTube: 41.2 %YouTube: 41.2 %

Eksperter estimerer, at der bliver frigivet malware på sociale frigivet malware på sociale medier hvert 15. sekundmedier hvert 15. sekund med det formål at udnytte intetanende brugere.
