It’s odd sometimes when creating something often their are a ton of just as good ideas or designs that never get seen…. really nice to see these PS logo versions.

Web Hacking Incident Database 2010 Semi Annual Report

Report Summary Findings 

An analysis of the Web hacking incidents from the first half of 2010 performed by Trustwave’s SpiderLabs Security Research team shows the following trends and findings: 

  • A steep rise in attacks against the financial vertical market is occurring in 2010, and is currently the no. 3 targeted vertical at 12 percent. This is mainly a result of cybercriminals targeting small to medium businesses’ (SMBs) online banking accounts.
  • Corresponding to cybercriminals targeting online bank accounts, the use of Banking Trojans (which results in stolen authentication credentials) made the largest jump for attack methods (Banking Trojans + Stolen Credentials).
  • Application downtime, often due to denial of service attacks, is a rising outcome.
  • Organizations have not implemented proper Web application logging mechanisms and thus are unable to conduct proper incident response to identify and correct vulnerabilities. This resulted in the no. 1 “unknown” attack category.

In case you don’t know, the first computer bug was found and documented on 9 September 1947. Literally yes, a moth was causing the malfunction of an early electromechanical computer. The log book is on display in the Smithsonian National Museum of American History, complete with moth attached.

For everyone involved in software development, here are the top 24 replies by programmers when their programs don’t work. Celebrate the occasion and have a laugh.

24. “It works fine on MY computer”
23. “Who did you login as ?”
22. “It’s a feature”
21. “It’s WAD (Working As Designed)”
20. “That’s weird…”
19. “It’s never done that before.”
18. “It worked yesterday.”
17. “How is that possible?”
16. “It must be a hardware problem.”
15. “What did you type in wrong to get it to crash?”
14. “There is something funky in your data.”
13. “I haven’t touched that module in weeks!”
12. “You must have the wrong version.”
11. “It’s just some unlucky coincidence.”
10. “I can’t test everything!”
9. “THIS can’t be the source of THAT.”
8. “It works, but it’s not been tested.”
7. “Somebody must have changed my code.”
6. “Did you check for a virus on your system?”
5. “Even though it doesn’t work, how does it feel?”
4. “You can’t use that version on your system.”
3. “Why do you want to do it that way?”
2. “Where were you when the program blew up?”
1. “I thought I fixed that.”
