From Forbes:
How Hackers Abused Tor To Rob Blockchain, Steal Bitcoin, Target Private Email And Get Away With It
Across October and November of last year, some unlucky users of the world’s most popular Bitcoin wallet, Blockchain.info, and one of the better-known exchanges, LocalBitcoins, had their usernames and passwords silently pilfered. They were robbed of significant sums, probably tens of thousands of dollars worth of the virtual currency, possibly more. Security-focused email services, Riseup and Safe-mail were also targeted by the same crew. And according to the man who witnessed the attacks go off last year, Digital Assurance director Greg Jones, it looks like buyers and sellers of dark markets were the targets.
The purpose of this blog is to help small-medium businesses (SMB's) deal effectively with their unique cyber security needs. With over 15 years experience in IT and cyber security I will show SMB's how they can leverage their limited resources to develop effective cyber defenses to the most common threats using information security best practices and no/low cost tools.
