Technically, three of GoDaddy&#8217;s DNS (Domain Name System) servers failed to resolve as a result of the hack, which Twitter user @anonymousown3r has called his doing. Shortly after GoDaddy sites started dropping by...<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"listing-item\"><a class=\"title\" href=\"https:\/\/techknow.cc\/?p=581\">Researchers Develop Frankenstein Virus?<\/a> <span class=\"date\">August 25, 2012<\/span> <span class=\"excerpt-dash\">-<\/span> <span class=\"excerpt\">Vishwath Mohan and Kevin Hamlen at the University of Texas at Dallas recently created Frankenstein, software that creates unique malware by combining code from the applications it finds on a PC. &#8220;Once Frankenstein finds itself on a computer, it starts looking for specific pieces of code from programs such as popular web browsers and even Notepad,&#8221; writes Softpedia&#8217;s Eduard Kovacs. &#8220;These elements, called gadgets, ultimately create malware that\u2019s capable of performing certain tasks. &#8221; &#8220;Frankenstein follows pre-written blueprints that specify certain tasks &#8212; such as copying pieces of data &#8212; and swaps in gadgets capable of performing those tasks,&#8221; writes...<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"listing-item\"><a class=\"title\" href=\"https:\/\/techknow.cc\/?p=365\">New BIOS Security<\/a> <span class=\"date\">August 23, 2012<\/span> <span class=\"excerpt-dash\">-<\/span> <span class=\"excerpt\">Network World \u2014 There&#8217;s a growing threat of attacks on computer basic input\/output system (BIOS) firmware, and to deter it, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is putting in place new security guidelines for updating the BIOS. And in doing this, NIST is getting high-tech manufacturing to raise the bar on security. &#8220;Last September, the first BIOS-based rootkit in the wild was discovered, called Mebromi,&#8221; notes Andrew Regenscheid, math researcher and project leader in NIST&#8217;s computer security division.

The guy behind it says that he&#8217;s not on Twitter, Facebook or IRC. I&#8217;ve never heard of an Anonymous member not on IRC, but let&#8217;s indulge him for now. Here&#8217;s the statement from the alleged hacker on PasteBin: Think outside the box.
