安全公司 ESET 的研究人员报告了第一个杀不死的 Linux UEFI Bootkit。该恶意程序被攻击者命名为 Bootkitty，相比 Windows 平台上的类似恶意程序，Bootkitty 相对简陋，关键底层功能不完善，主要感染 Ubuntu，感染其它 Linux 发行版的手段缺乏。安全研究人员猜测它可能是一个概念验证版本，尚未观察到实际感染证据。Bootkit 是一种感染固件的恶意程序，此类恶意程序无法通过格式化硬盘等常规方法杀死。最新发现意味着 UEFI Bootkit 不再只针对 Windows 操作系统。

Given the pro-privacy stance of the platform, it’s taken as a given that it’ll be used for a number of reasons, not all of them good. And Telegram has been attached to a fair few scandals related to terrorism, sexual exploitation and crime. Back in 2015, Vox described Telegram as “ISIS’ app of choice,” saying that the platform’s real use is the ability to use channels to distribute material to large groups at once. Telegram has acted to remove public channels affiliated with terrorism, but Pavel Durov reiterated that he had no business snooping on private conversations. Elsewhere, version 8.6 of Telegram integrates the in-app camera option into the gallery, while a new navigation bar gives quick access to photos, files, location sharing, and more. Telegram was co-founded by Pavel and Nikolai Durov, the brothers who had previously created VKontakte. VK is Russia’s equivalent of Facebook, a social network used for public and private messaging, audio and video sharing as well as online gaming. In January, SimpleWeb reported that VK was Russia’s fourth most-visited website, after Yandex, YouTube and Google’s Russian-language homepage. In 2016, Forbes’ Michael Solomon described Pavel Durov (pictured, below) as the “Mark Zuckerberg of Russia.” The regulator said it has been undertaking several campaigns to educate the investors to be vigilant while taking investment decisions based on stock tips. The gold standard of encryption, known as end-to-end encryption, where only the sender and person who receives the message are able to see it, is available on Telegram only when the Secret Chat function is enabled. Voice and video calls are also completely encrypted.
