o Key loggers are a type of spyware that monitors your key strokes.
Spyware is mostly classified into four types:
1.System monitors
2.Trojans
3.Adware
4.Tracking Cookies
spyware is mostly used for the purposes of tracking and storing internet users' movements on the web and serving up pop-up ads to internet users.
History and development of spyware.
The first recorded on October 16, 1995 in a UseNet post that poked fun at microsoft's business model.
Spyware at first denoted software meant for espionage purposes.
However, in early 2000 the founder of zone labs, gregor freund, used the term in a press release for the zone alarm personal firewall.
Use of exploits in JavaScript, internet explorer and windows to install.
Effect and behavior.
Unwanted behavior and degradation of system performance.
Unwanted CPU activity, disk usage, and network traffic.
Stability issues:-
Application's freezing.
Failure to boot.
System-wide crashes.
Difficulty connecting to the internet.
Disable software firewalls and anti-virus software.
Routes of infection.
Installed when you open an email attachment.
Spyware installs itself
Install by using deceptive tactics
Common tactics are using a Trojan horse.
USB Keylogger.
browser forces the download and installation of spyware.
Security Practices.
• Installing anti-spyware programs.
• Network firewalls and web proxies to block access to web sites known to install spyware
• Individual users can also install firewalls.
• Install a large hosts file.
• It Install shareware programs offered for download.
• Downloading programs only from reputable sources can provide some protection from this source of attack
Anti-spyware Programs
• Products dedicated to remove or block spyware.
• Programs such as pc tool’s spyware doctor, lava soft's ad-aware se and patrick kolla's spybot - search & destroy.
Legal Issues.
Criminal law
US FTC actions

The pesky Pro-search.meis anything but harmless. This is actually one of the many browser hijackers out there. And those are quite a pest. The good news is that browser hijackers are among the relatively harmless types of viruses. However, no infection is completely harmless. Instead of tolerating this program’s shenanigans, take measures now. The sooner you manage to get rid of Search-selector.co, the better.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
