Are you a regular customer of Amazon, eBay, and other e-commerce stores in the United States? If yes, here's a warning you should know. A security company recently found several hackers able to open the customers' credit card details and steal their money, through the most common e-commerce web analytics software, Google Analytics. Here's how it happened.
Beware! There's a hidden hacker on Google Analytics
Another thing that makes this hacking more dangerous is how people are now dependent on the usage of Google servers.
As explained, CSP's main objective is to execute untrusted codes; it will be detected. However, since Google servers are already used by everyone, it can easily dodge their security protocols.
"Typically, a digital skimmer (aka Magecart) runs on dodgy servers in tax havens, and its location reveals its nefarious intent," explains Sansec's Threat Research Team. "But when a skimming campaign runs entirely on trusted Google servers, very few security systems will flag it as 'suspicious'. And more importantly, popular countermeasures like Content-Security-Policy (CSP) will not work when a site administrator trusts Google."
Anonymous Blueleaks
In line with hacking, on Monday, June 22, the most famous hacking group, Anonymous, has stolen and leaked police records from over 200 police departments in the country.
The so-called Blueleaks collection features internal memos, financial records, and more from the state, local, and federal agencies.
