Phish biographer Parke Puterbaugh drops in on Mr. Media Radio
2010-04-29 12:56:00 Cover of Phish: The Biography By BOB ANDELMAN Must be my lifelong resistance to getting stoned, but I?ve never been a huge fan of jamband music. Dave Matthews is okay in small does, as is the Grateful Dead, and to be perfectly honest, I?ve had little exposure to the music of the band Phish?and that?s spelled P-H-I-S-H for those of you who listen regularly but may be musically clueless. But what I do recognize is a good story, and that?s what Phish?s official biographer?and former Rolling Stone magazine staff writer?Parke Puterbaugh has in his new book Phish: The Biography. Even though I?m not a Phish-head, I thought by reading the book and talking to Parke, maybe I?ll see the light. Let?s see what happens. Parke Puterbaugh on Facebook Phish Website PARKE PUTERBAUGH AUDIO EXCERPT: "I don't know what struck them about me, but I do know what struck me about them. First, before I ever heard a note of their music, at their insistence, I flew up to Burlington, Vermont, which is t...

Bank Employees become Phish Bait?
2008-09-22 02:00:00 What a week it was in the financial markets! With Lehman Brothers filing for bankruptcy, and Barclays subsequently buying up some of the assets; with Merrill Lynch finding a safe harbour at Bank Of America; and then, closer to home (for me at least) the merger of two of the biggest UK retail banks, HBOS and LloydsTSB. During this coming period, it is a reasonably safe bet that we may be in for a flurry of phishing attacks targeting the customers of these institutions using ruses like share “windfalls” and the like to tempt individuals into disclosing their credentials. However, in this blog, that’s not what I want to talk about. The implications for the employees of these organisations are, of course, also huge, and the degree of uncertainty and change that will ensue for a period of time will provide ample opportunity for the criminal fraternity to exploit....
What's Going on Between Asprox and Rock Phish?
2008-09-04 02:00:00 When a small phishing gang decides to upgrade its infrastructure, it is often done in a quick and dirty fashion. The transition is almost immediate, and often buggy and unprofessional. But what happens when a gang on the scale of the Rock Phish group decides to abandon its old methods and upgrade its botnet infrastructure? It is done slowly, smoothly but most importantly -- professionally. The RSA FraudAction Research Labs recently gathered information that indicates major changes in the tactics employed by the Rock Phish gang. We have reason to believe that the gang is replacing its phishing infrastructure, and upgrading it to an advanced Fast-Flux botnet. We also believe that this new infrastructure belongs to none other than the infamous Asprox Botnet, which has recently been spreading itself using surges of SQL injection attacks...

Phish No Pond
2007-07-23 07:08:00 Phisihing : a criminal activity using social engineering techniques. Phishers attempt to fraudulently acquire sensitive information, such as usernames, passwords and credit card details, by masquerading as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication. eBay and PayPal are two of the most targeted companies, and online banks are also common targets. Phishing is typically carried out by email or instant messaging,and often directs users to give details at a website, although phone contact has been used as well. Attempts to deal with the growing number of reported phishing incidents include legislation, user training, and technical measures. The first recorded mention of phishing is on the alt.online-service.america-onli-ne Usenet newsgroup on January 2, 1996, although the term may have appeared even earlier in the print edition of the hacker magazine 2600. The term phishing is a variant of fishing, probably influenced by phreaking, and alludes to the use of increasingly sophistic...
Phish and Foul
2007-07-20 06:00:00 "Phishing," as you probably know, is a form of online con game. Users are lured by e-mail messages to legitimate-seeming but criminal sites--typically falsified versions of their real banking sites--and encouraged to enter password information. Having harvested this information, the operators of the criminal sites use it to break into victims' accounts. (As the term suggests, most "phishing" e-mail goes wide of the mark, arriving as spam unconnected with the recipient's bank. A phishing expedition, though, can be profitable with only a few successes.) The remedies offered by the security community are numerous. Most prevalent are various types of red flags...

Find the Phish
2007-06-18 18:19:00 My fiancee forwarded an e-mail she received today from a bank that she does not use. The e-mail stated that the bank had locked her online access and needed some information from her. Here is the gist of it: "Dear customer, Your access to Online Services has been suspended. Due to a miss-match access code between your Site key information. To enable you continue accessing your online account it will only take you few minutes to re-activate your account. Click on the link below and you will be taken straight to where you can activate your account." It goes on to provide a link to the bank, which if investigated shows that it actually points to a link at MISIONCRISTIANAELIMHN.com. Performing a quick check at dnsstuff.com shows that it is registered to Solucion Logica in San Pedro Sula, Cortez, Honduras with Julius Barber as the technical contact.
