"Even though this model deals with incredibly high energies, it leads to clear predictions that today's experiments can actually lo

Security Week 2617: криптостилеры в китайском Apple App Store

Исследователи «Лаборатории Касперского» изучили тактику распространения вредоносных программ через официальный магазин приложений App Store для устройств Apple. В марте этого года в китайском App Store были обнаружены более двух десятков приложений, мимикрирующих под популярные программы для работы с криптовалютой. Для обхода проверок при публикации приложения в них заложена какая-то рудиментарная функциональность, обычно даже не имеющая никакого отношения к криптовалютам.
