As in every other market segment, any scientific insight into the market share of various vendors offers an invaluable perspective into the market dynamics, what are customers purchasing, and most importantly, are they living in a world of ‘false feeling of security’. Using a data set consisting of 120,000 data points, <a href="http://www.opswat.com/about/media/reports/antivirus-june-2012" target="_blank">researchers from OPSWAT recently released an informative overview</a> of the antivirus market, answering an important question - which is the most popular antivirus vendor? According to their findings, that’s avast! Free Antivirus, followed by Microsoft Security Essentials and ESET NOD32 Antivirus. Detailed market share statistics: Avast - 17.4% worldwide market share Microsoft - 13.2% worldwide market share ESET - 11.1% worldwide market share Symantec - 10.3% worldwide market share AVG - 10.1% worldwide market share Avira - 9.6% worldwide market share Kaspersky - 6.7% worldwide market share McAfee - 4.9% worldwide market share Panda - 2.9% worldwide market share Trend Micro - 2.8% worldwide market share Other - 11.1% worldwide market share Microsoft is the market leader in North America, followed by Symantec and AVG. Not surprisingly, the market leading avast! Free Antivirus is relying on the so called “freemium” business model, where the company grows and gains market share by offering a free alternative of their software, and earns revenue thanks to the successful conversion of free users to paid ones. Earlier this year, the company announced that it has 150 million active users worldwide, a clear indication of a working “freemium” business model. What do you think? Is antivirus software still relevant in the age of Stuxnet, Duqu and Flame, the so called poster kids of the DIY targeted attack toolkits and weaponized malware releases? Do think free antivirus is offering a ‘false feeling of security’ compared to subscription based license models?</div>

How to Check If Your LinkedIn Password Was Stolen

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Worried that your LinkedIn password may be a part of the <a href="http://prohackingtricks.blogspot.com/2012/06/linkedin-hacked-646-million-passwords.html" target="_blank">nearly 6.5 million compromised</a> on Wednesday? Password management firm LastPass has released a secure tool to see if your password was among the stolen. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2622ItQVJbNdoH9fLlE8gy7BIIbk0-9faCbJF_QTSBjcy4GZLTisAequRqV52_fzZGbJxCq-9VKapa67h3aTkeeUzAeDgZWwESuF0c3Yd2Usgfi0cSi2e-oSro5oa42_BprJK6g02AHs/s1600/linkedin.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="linkedin.PNG" border="0" height="313px" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2622ItQVJbNdoH9fLlE8gy7BIIbk0-9faCbJF_QTSBjcy4GZLTisAequRqV52_fzZGbJxCq-9VKapa67h3aTkeeUzAeDgZWwESuF0c3Yd2Usgfi0cSi2e-oSro5oa42_BprJK6g02AHs/s1600/linkedin.PNG" width="550px" /></a></div> News first surfaced about the security breach after a Russian hacker said he stole 6,458,020 encrypted LinkedIn passwords and posted them online (without usernames) to prove his feat. The breach comes on the heels of news that LinkedIn’s iOS app potentially violates user privacy by sending detailed calendar entries to its servers. LinkedIn confirmed that some passwords had become compromised and said it would contact affected users with details on how to change their password Although usernames associated with the passwords were not released, the passwords themselves will surely be used to help reverse-engineer other cryptography systems. We also expect to see these passwords added to dictionary lists of programs that attempt to break into various accounts. In other words — if you’re a LinkedIn user, no matter how strong your password seemed — it’s a good idea to go ahead and change it. How This Works If you’re a cynical web user when it comes to privacy and security — of course you are, right? — then you’re probably asking yourself whether or not a site where you type in your password to see if it’s been compromised could possibly be legit. But the folks at <a href="https://lastpass.com/linkedin/" target="_blank">LastPass</a> ensure that the tool is safe and does not store passwords. Here’s how it works: After typing your LinkedIn password into LastPass’s tool, the service computes its SHA-1 hash and sends the result to LastPass.com. It then searches the list of 6.5 million leaked password hashes. “All that’s communicated to LastPass is the hash ‚Äî the result of the one-way function performed on the password that a user enters in that box,” a LastPass spokesperson said. “So let’s say you enter ‘password1.’ You enter it and the tool performs the hashing algorithm. The hash is then sent to LastPass, and if a match is found in the database (of the 6.46 million leaked hashes) on our end, we report back a message saying that your password was compromised.” The spokesperson also noted that the hashes are not stored on its servers: “We don’t store the hash on our end. We only perform the check and then delete it.” Change Your Password If your password is among the millions stolen, you should not only change it as soon as possible but also update other accounts you have that use the same password. If you aren’t already using a password management tool — it’s time to start considering one. Tools such as <a href="https://lastpass.com/linkedin/" target="_blank">LastPass</a> and <a href="http://www.1password.com/" target="_blank">1Password</a> are invaluable in helping users create and manage unique, secure passwords. Has your password been compromised? Let us know in the comments.</div>

It looks as though some of the weaker passwords — around 300,000 of them — may have been cracked already. Other users have been seen reaching out to fellow hackers in <a href="http://forum.insidepro.com/viewtopic.php?p=96084&sid=59390cb82737dabec8deb0f28d22bcc8" target="_blank">an apparent bid to seek help</a> in cracking the encryption.

A source said they had searched and discovered their password in the cache. It has been reported that the passwords were encrypted using the SHA-1 algorithm — which is known for its flaws — but unless a password is weak, it may take a while to decrypt the remaining cache. LinkedIn has more than 150 million users worldwide. This apparent hack could affect less than 10 percent of its user base, but it will strike a damaging blow to the ‘professional’ social network’s reputation. It is advised users change their passwords as a precautionary measure. LinkedIn said it was “looking into reports of stolen passwords” on its official Twitter account.</div></div>

How to Download and Install the Microsoft Windows 8 Release Preview

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Get ready, beta testers. Microsoft debuted<a href="http://prohackingtricks.blogspot.com/2011/09/windows-8-developer-preview.html" target="_blank"> Windows 8 Release Preview</a>, which is one of the last steps before a final release of Windows 8 this fall. Versions of the operating system are available for both 32-bit and 64-bit systems. Here's what Microsoft says is new or enhanced over previous beta releases: <ul><li>New Bing-powered apps, including ones for travel, news, and sports</li><li>Improvements to Mail, Photos, and People apps</li><li>Increased Start personalization</li><li>Better multiple-monitor support</li><li>Better Windows Store navigation</li><li>New family safety and security functionality</li><li>Enhanced touch support for Internet Explorer 10</li></ul>Warning As with past betas of Windows 8, Microsoft advises users to not install the operating system on a computer used for day-to-day work. There's also no going back without wiping your hard drive. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCX1ibm0Bjau1Q1hqcSDjxnin2f32OmN0gVZbnUSv7rwsRq-Qqa15fsCZFS3V7RfuWeCuWD4xH9VUqbTSxOAVwfK9uhf1QdSoOZYB5KW-eAKr5Js2o4os0NYe_8l6g-Co6RQ6mVokMLQE/s1600/win8-start-screen.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="download windows 8" border="0" height="386" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCX1ibm0Bjau1Q1hqcSDjxnin2f32OmN0gVZbnUSv7rwsRq-Qqa15fsCZFS3V7RfuWeCuWD4xH9VUqbTSxOAVwfK9uhf1QdSoOZYB5KW-eAKr5Js2o4os0NYe_8l6g-Co6RQ6mVokMLQE/s1600/win8-start-screen.png" width="540" /></a></div> You can't downgrade from Windows 8 since it cannot access the recovery partition of your hard drive. If you need to downgrade, ensure you have recovery disks readily available. f you are already running Windows 8 Consumer Preview or Developer Preview, Microsoft says you can upgrade to Release Preview. There's a downside to upgrading, though: you cannot keep any of your files. To run Windows 8 Release Preview, your test computer will need a processor with a clock speed of 1GHz or greater, 1GB (32-bit version), or 2GB (64-bit version) of RAM, at least 16GB (32-bit) or 20GB (64-bit) of available hard drive space, and a graphics card that supports DirectX 9 with a WDDM driver. For select features, you will also need multitouch support, Internet access, and a screen resolution of at least 1024 pixels by 768 pixels. Where to Download Windows 8 Release Preview If you meet these requirements, head over to <a href="http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/download" target="_blank">the download page</a> on Microsoft's site and enter your email and country. Since the free Release Preview is available in 14 languages, chances are you'll find a version of the software available for your region. Clicking 'Download' will start the download of the "Windows 8 Release Preview Setup." Running this application automates most of the set-up process, and selects the appropriate version of the preview for your machine. If you're a bit more daring and technologically savvy, Microsoft has provided <a href="http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/iso" target="_blank">direct links to ISO files</a>. These must be turned into installation media that are burned to a DVD drive or copied to a USB flash drive in order to complete the install. That's the installation process in a nutshell, but again--be wary. This is preview software, so keep mission critical work off your test PC. Have you <a href="http://prohackingtricks.blogspot.com/2011/09/how-to-install-windows-8-via-usb-drive.html" target="_blank">installed Windows 8 Release Preview</a>? Did you previously install the Consumer Preview? Let us know your thoughts on this latest release and anything you notice that needs a little work.</div>
