Some 29 websites used in the scam were shut down but the mastermind was still at large, said Jon Merrett, assisant director of the ICC Commercial Crime Bureau and Cybercrime Units which polices all financial and intellectual property rights breaches on the Internet. ``We believe two people were arrested in Switzerland and two in San Francisco, but we don't think anything came of that as they were not the masterminds,'' he said. The person or persons behind the scam was still at large and could be running other online fraud schemes, Merrett warned. http://www.zdnet.com/zdnn/stories/newsbursts/0,7407,2707412,00.html http://www.usatoday.com/life/cyber/tech/2001-04-12-online-banking-scam.htm http://www.techtv.com/news/commentary/story/0,24195,3321966,00.html First Predictive Network Attack Defense Software Intro'd SecurityFocus.com has taken the wraps off the Attack Registry & Intelligence Service (ARIS), which the company says is the world's first network attack predictor and incident management system. The software, which resides on a company's network, consists of two main modules: an Analyzer and a Predictor. The Analyzer does what many network security packages do, namely collecting and analyzing incident data. However, it is the Predictor module that is the firm's jewel in the crown, since it interfaces its data anonymously with other networks using ARIS data. In use, ARIS automatically - and anonymously - collects a company's intrusion detection system (IDS) log files, and presents users with organized reports on attacks to their systems, as well as information on how best to respond to these attacks. http://www.newsbytes.com/news/01/164419.html ------------------------ Yahoo!
