From malware built to disrupt our critical infrastructure to front-line cyber soldiers, here are some of the top security headlines from the week of June 12:
- The malware cometh. The “nightmare” malware has been attacking power plants in Europe, causing blackouts and Daily Beast reports that U.S. companies have been warned.
- “I’m a Mac.” “You still might be in trouble.” That’s what security researchers are saying to Bleeping Computer after two new strains of Mac malware have been offered through the Dark Web over the last few weeks.
- Is the cloud really safer? Help Net Security found that most IT professionals want everything in the cloud – specifically one cloud – and executives are agreeing, but are they overlooking security?
- Over where? Everywhere. Ars Technica’s Sean Gallagher looks at how the U.S. military is experimenting with “cyber soldiers” to face threats beyond the battlefield.
- Airport security is focused on the physical, but airlines themselves are tempting targets . Newsweek looks at the wealth of data stored by these companies, making them ideal marks for hacking.
