Oi, Cesar here and today I’m going to explain how to safely browse through adult material. I’m sure many of you reading are giggling or asking yourself “Who in the heck would write an article like this and much less read it?” Well considering we’re human beings and it’s in our nature to seek and view erotic material I took it upon myself to provide some tips to browse safely. I’d also like to mention that in over 70% of virus infections on a system is due to unsafe browsing. Yes, it seems to be a high number but deep down inside we all know that virtually everyone browses adult sites. I couldn’t count the number of times an individual returned with another virus claiming that it’s our technician’s fault, until a technician analyzes the index.dat file and internet temp directory. Save yourself an embarrassing moment and learn a little something that could help minimize the chance of a virus infection. Trust me if you think its embarrassing reading this or admitting you view adult material imagine how I feel writing an article about it and jumping right into it. This also helps with just browsing in general as well.

Do you know how to report a computer crime? Or even who you would report it
to?

So far, we've looked at unauthorised email account access and malware in our series of articles on how to report a computer crime. In this article, we'll look at an SQL injection attack.

We'll look at what offences are committed in different countries when a crime like this happens, how you should report the crime, and what evidence you can preserve.

Take this scenario:

A company has a web server and associated database configured to serve dynamic content. The company has set up its website insecurely, leaving it vulnerable to input validation attacks.

A cybercriminal has been hired by a competitor of the company to "take the company offline”. The cybercriminal has identified that the company website is susceptible to SQL injection, so performs a series of SQL injection attacks.

This results in the deletion of a number of tables from the database, rendering the company website inoperable.
