North Korea’s cyberattacks have been well documented over the years. But a collaboration between McAfee and Intezer security researchers has shown previously undiscovered links among the various North Korean malware families and some of the most successful cyberattacks to date. Jay Rosenberg of Intezer and Christiaan Beek of McAfee are talking about their discovery at the Black Hat 2018 security conference in Las Vegas this week. They say they found links by examining the reuse of code among malware and their malware attack campaigns. For example, four examples of reused code in larger-scale nationalism-motivated campaigns were discovered to only be seen in malware attributed to North Korea. The research also details the different tools believed to be used by specific teams of North Korea’s cyber army, and provides a distinct timeline of the evolution of attacks that began when North Korea entered the stage as a significant threat actor. Attacks from the online groups … [Read more...] about McAfee and Intezer find links among North Korea’s malware families

Apple automatically identifies people in your images and collects them into the People album. This is all done locally on your iPhone, and won't sync with your other devices save for the person's name (though it may in future versions of iOS if Apple can guarantee user privacy). From here, it's up to you what you want to do with that information. You can ignore the People album if you like, but if you go in and … [Read more...] about How to find Faces and People in the Photos app for iPhone or iPad
