AFP: Hack atake hit jackpots ATM

Computer security researcher Barnaby Jack jokes that he has resorted to hiding cash under his bed since figuring out how to crack automated teller machines remotely using the Internet.

The New Zealand native on Saturday demonstrated hisATM jackpottingdiscovery for an overflow crowd of hackers during a presentation at the infamous DefCon gathering in Las Vegas.

You don’t have to go to the ATM at all,” Jack told AFP after briefing fellow software savants. “You can do it from the comfort of your own bedroom.

Jack proved his findings using two kinds of ATMs typically found in corner stores, bars or otherstand-alonevenues in the United States but said the flaw likely exists in machines at banks.

Banks useremote managementsoftware to monitor and control their ATMs, and Jack used a weakness in that kind of code to take control of machines by way of the Internet.

A graphic designer in Tokyo has unlocked a fairly significant accomplishment on Twitter—posting the service’s 20-billionth message since the site’s inception in July of 2006. It’s somewhat difficult to translate exactly what userGGGGGGo_Lets_Gowas saying in the official tweet. Gayunman, his translated response to the news is far clearer:

It looks like I posted the 20 billionth tiririt. I’m getting replies from people all over the world. It’s scary. What are the chances? Maybe I’m going to die. Is it more amazing than winning the lottery? I thought it was a joke,” he wrote, as reported and translated by Computerworld.

Ang sagupaan sa pagitan ng mga e-diskobre sa internasyonal na arbitrasyon at European data na proteksyon batas | Lexology

In today’s business environment, ever-increasing amounts of information are stored and communicated in electronic format. This electronically stored information (“ESI”) is not only found on computers, servers and storage devices, but also on PDAs, mobile phones and MP3 players. Unsurprisingly, such a universe of information is fertile ground for requests for document production in international arbitrations.

Sa parehong oras, the EU is concerned about the protection of third parties’ personal na data, and has issued directives protecting such data. But what happens when a request to produce documents in an international arbitration would require a party to contravene an EU directive on data privacy? EU guidelines exist for data protection issues related to discovery in cross-border litigation, but the conflict between document production and EU data privacy guidelines in international arbitration remains unresolved.

Bridging the Communication Gap in E-Discovery | Corporate Counsel

Several years ago, I was the technical lead for a mission-critical application at a Fortune 100 insurance company. The application quoted and issued policies for the company’s largest commercial line of business, booking revenues upward of $28,000 per minute of scheduled uptime. One day, I received a request from the chief litigator to stop automatic deletion from the system. Simple enough, karapatan? Wrong. Complying with this request — kung saan, translated into IT terms, meant suspending the purge processwould have locked the database in 11 oras, crashing the application, crippling the company’s ability to sell a policy, and suspending 30 percent of the company’s revenue stream.

This was my first experience with e-discovery, and a classic example of the process disconnects I see at the companies for which I now consult. E-pagtuklas, like litigation, can be a frenzy. Most companies are simply not set up with the streamlined channels of communication they need to respond effectively.

United Kingdom Authority Solicitors regulasyon Relaxes ang Patakaran kontrahan Pagkatapos Suriin ng Paggamit ng ‘Intsik pader’

London law firms will now be able to make wider use ofChinese wallsafter the Solicitors Regulation Authority finalized a review of the rules governing conflicts.

The rule changes, approved by the Legal Services Board earlier this month (Hulyo 13), lift the restrictions which formerly only allowed law firms to act for multiple clients with information barriers in place if the firm had already been instructed at the time the conflict arose.

Rule four of the SRA Code of Conduct previously only permitted work involving Chinese walls to be completed after a conflict became apparent.

Gayunman, firms will now be able to accept new instructions, even when it is apparent that there are risks concerning confidentiality, provided the firm in question has the infrastructure in place to set up legally compliant information barriers.

The SRA has warned that most law firms will not have such capabilities and that Chinese walls should therefore continue to be used withextreme caution”.

New York Hukuman Nagbibigay ng detalyadong tagubilin sa Protocol para sa Pagtuklas ng Cloned Hard Drive : Elektronikong pagkatuklas Law

In this matrimonial action, plaintiff sought access to her husband’s (the defendant) office computer to determine his true financial condition.  After denying plaintiff’s initial motion, the court directed (by stipulated order) that a clone of defendant’s office hard drive be made at plaintiff’s expense.  Thereafter, the court denied plaintiff’s motion for access to the cloned drive upon finding her request for unrestricted access overbroad.  “Equally important” to the court was plaintiff’s failure to propose any protocol for investigation of defendant’s hard drive.  The court instructed that should the plaintiff wish to renew her motion, her renewal “must contain a detailed, step-by-step discovery protocol that would allow for the protection of privileged and private material.”  Moreover, the court provided detailed instruction for what such a protocol should contain:

Goldman Sachs Bans Naughty Words in Emails – WSJ.com

There will never be another s— deal at Goldman Sachs Group Inc.

In the wake of recent Congressional hearings, Goldman Sachs has moved to prohibit employees from swearing in emails. Cassell Bryan-Low discusses.

The New York company is telling employees that they will no longer be able to get away with profanity in electronic messages. That means all 34,000 traders, investment bankers and other Goldman employees must restrain themselves from using a vast vocabulary of oft-used dirty words on Wall Street, including the six-letter expletive that came back to haunt the company at a Senate hearing in April.
