McAfee acquires VPN provider TunnelBear https://briefnews.eu/mcafee-acquires-vpn-provider-tunnelbear/ https://briefnews.eu/mcafee-acquires-vpn-provider-tunnelbear/#respond Thu, 08 Mar 2018 13:48:22 +0000 http://briefnews.eu/mcafee-acquires-vpn-provider-tunnelbear/


McAfee has announced that it has acquired Canada-based virtual private network (VPN) company TunnelBear. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Founded in 2011, Toronto-based TunnelBear has gained a solid reputation for its fun, cross-platform VPN app that uses quirky bear-burrowing animations to bring online privacy to the masses. The company claims around 20 million have used its service across mobile and desktop, while a few months back the company branched out into password management with the launch of the standalone RememBear app.

Founded in 1987, McAfee is one of the most established brands in the online security realm, and is arguably best known for its desktop antivirus software. The company was acquired by Intel in 2010 for a mammoth $ 7.7 billion, and later became known as Intel Security Group, before being spun out last year as an independent company again with Intel retaining a 49 percent share in the company.

This latest deal represents McAfee’s second acquisition as an independent company, after it bought cybersecurity company Skyhigh Networks back in November.

TunnelBear hadn’t taken on any known outside funding, so McAfee is unlikely to have broken the bank to snap it up. However, TunnelBear has previously revealed that it was profitable, so it’s unlikely to have been in a desperate need to sell unless the offer was right.

Moving forward, it appears that TunnelBear will continue to operate as a standalone business, with the founding team staying on to develop the VPN product, though naturally we can likely expect to see some deeper synergies drawn between McAfee’s broader security suite and TunnelBear in the future. VentureBeat has reached out to both companies and will update here if, or when, we hear back.

“TunnelBear has built an engaging and profitable direct-to-consumer brand, and we’re confident this acquisition will serve both our end users and partners by embedding its best-in-class, hardened network into our Safe Connect product,” noted McAfee CEO Christopher Young, in a press release. “This investment is strategic for McAfee’s consumer business as it further showcases our commitment to help keep our customers’ online data and browsing private and more secure at a time when the threat landscape is growing in volume, speed and complexity.”

Though VPNs have served as popular online privacy tools for years, helping internet users mask their true location and access services restricted to other regions, growing privacy concerns and political shifts such as Donald Trump’s rise to the White House have led a number of VPN and encrypted messaging services reporting a surge in downloads. Indeed, there are no shortage of VPN services out there already, but new ones arrive on the market frequently too — ProtonMail, for example, recently expanded beyond encrypted email to offer its first dedicated VPN service.

SAP, Symantec, and McAfee let Russia probe software widely used by U.S. government https://briefnews.eu/sap-symantec-and-mcafee-let-russia-probe-software-widely-used-by-u-s-government/ https://briefnews.eu/sap-symantec-and-mcafee-let-russia-probe-software-widely-used-by-u-s-government/#respond Fri, 26 Jan 2018 06:05:12 +0000 http://briefnews.eu/sap-symantec-and-mcafee-let-russia-probe-software-widely-used-by-u-s-government/


(Reuters) — Major global technology providers SAP, Symantec and McAfee have allowed Russian authorities to hunt for vulnerabilities in software deeply embedded across the U.S. government, a Reuters investigation has found.

The practice potentially jeopardizes the security of computer networks in at least a dozen federal agencies, U.S. lawmakers and security experts said. It involves more companies and a broader swath of the government than previously reported.

In order to sell in the Russian market, the tech companies let a Russian defense agency scour the inner workings, or source code, of some of their products. Russian authorities say the reviews are necessary to detect flaws that could be exploited by hackers.

But those same products protect some of the most sensitive areas of the U.S government, including the Pentagon, NASA, the State Department, the FBI and the intelligence community, against hacking by sophisticated cyber adversaries like Russia.

Reuters revealed in October that Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE.N) software known as ArcSight, used to help secure the Pentagon’s computers, had been reviewed by a Russian military contractor with close ties to Russia’s security services.

Now, a Reuters review of hundreds of U.S. federal procurement documents and Russian regulatory records shows that the potential risks to the U.S. government from Russian source code reviews are more widespread.

Beyond the Pentagon, ArcSight is used in at least seven other agencies, including the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the State Department’s intelligence unit, the review showed. Additionally, products made by SAP, Symantec and McAfee and reviewed by Russian authorities are used in at least eight agencies. Some agencies use more than one of the four products.

McAfee, SAP, Symantec and Micro Focus, the British firm that now owns ArcSight, all said that any source code reviews were conducted under the software maker’s supervision in secure facilities where the code could not be removed or altered. The process does not compromise product security, they said. Amid growing concerns over the process, Symantec and McAfee no longer allow such reviews and Micro Focus moved to sharply restrict them late last year.

The Pentagon said in a previously unreported letter to Democratic Senator Jeanne Shaheen that source code reviews by Russia and China “may aid such countries in discovering vulnerabilities in those products.”

Reuters has not found any instances where a source code review played a role in a cyberattack, and some security experts say hackers are more likely to find other ways to infiltrate network systems.

But the Pentagon is not alone in expressing concern. Private sector cyber experts, former U.S. security officials and some U.S. tech companies told Reuters that allowing Russia to review the source code may expose unknown vulnerabilities that could be used to undermine U.S. network defenses.

“Even letting people look at source code for a minute is incredibly dangerous,” said Steve Quane, executive vice president for network defense at Trend Micro, which sells TippingPoint security software to the U.S. military.

Worried about those risks to the U.S. government, Trend Micro has refused to allow the Russians to conduct a source code review of TippingPoint, Quane said.

Quane said top security researchers can quickly spot exploitable vulnerabilities just by examining source code.

“We know there are people who can do that, because we have people like that who work for us,” he said.

In contrast to Russia, the U.S. government seldom requests source code reviews when buying commercially available software products, U.S. trade attorneys and security experts say.

Opening the door

Many of the Russian reviews have occurred since 2014, when U.S.-Russia relations plunged to new lows following Moscow’s annexation of Crimea. Western nations have accused Russia of sharply escalating its use of cyber attacks during that time, an allegation Moscow denies.

Some U.S. lawmakers worry source code reviews could be yet another entry point for Moscow to wage cyberattacks.

“I fear that access to our security infrastructure – whether it be overt or covert – by adversaries may have already opened the door to harmful security vulnerabilities,” Shaheen told Reuters.

In its Dec. 7 letter to Shaheen, the Pentagon said it was “exploring the feasibility” of requiring vendors to disclose when they have allowed foreign governments to access source code. Shaheen had questioned the Pentagon about the practice following the Reuters report on ArcSight, which also prompted Micro Focus to say it would restrict government source code reviews in the future. HPE said none of its current products have undergone Russian source code review.

Lamar Smith, the Republican chairman of the House Science, Space and Technology Committee, said legislation to better secure the federal cybersecurity supply chain was clearly needed.

Responding to the Reuters report on Thursday, Democratic Congressman Jim Langevin, a senior member of the House Armed Services Committee, said the Pentagon must consider “any access adversaries may have to source code when it is making purchasing decisions.”

Most U.S. government agencies declined to comment when asked whether they were aware technology installed within their networks had been inspected by Russian military contractors. Others said security was of paramount concern but that they could not comment on the use of specific software.

A Pentagon spokeswoman said it continually monitors the commercial technology it uses for security weaknesses.

No pencils allowed

Tech companies wanting to access Russia’s large market are often required to seek certification for their products from Russian agencies, including the FSB security service and Russia’s Federal Service for Technical and Export Control (FSTEC), a defense agency tasked with countering cyber espionage.

FSTEC declined to comment and the FSB did not respond to requests for comment. The Kremlin referred all questions to the FSB and FSTEC.

FSTEC often requires companies to permit a Russian government contractor to test the software’s source code.

SAP HANA, a database system, underwent a source code review in order to obtain certification in 2016, according to Russian regulatory records. The software stores and analyzes information for the State Department, Internal Revenue Service, NASA and the Army.

An SAP spokeswoman said any source code reviews were conducted in a secure, company-supervised facility where recording devices or even pencils are “are strictly forbidden.”

“All governments and governmental organizations are treated the same with no exceptions,” the spokeswoman said.

While some companies have since stopped allowing Russia to review source code in their products, the same products often remain embedded in the U.S. government, which can take decades to upgrade technology.

Security concerns caused Symantec to halt all government source code reviews in 2016, the company’s chief executive told Reuters in October. But Symantec Endpoint Protection antivirus software, which was reviewed by Russia in 2012, remains in use by the Pentagon, the FBI, and the Social Security Administration, among other agencies, according to federal contracting records reviewed by Reuters.

In a statement, a Symantec spokeswoman said the newest version of Endpoint Protection, released in late 2016, never underwent a source code review and that the earlier version has received numerous updates since being tested by Russia. The California-based company said it had no reason to believe earlier reviews had compromised product security. Symantec continued to sell the older version through 2017 and will provide updates through 2019.

McAfee also announced last year that it would no longer allow government-mandated source code reviews.

The cyber firm’s Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) software was reviewed in 2015 by a Moscow-based government contractor, Echelon, on behalf of FSTEC, according to Russian regulatory documents. McAfee confirmed this.

The Treasury Department and Defense Security Service, a Pentagon agency tasked with guarding the military’s classified information, continue to rely on the product to protect their networks, contracting records show.

McAfee declined to comment, citing customer confidentiality agreements, but it has previously said the Russian reviews are conducted at company-owned premises in the United States.

‘You can’t trust anyone’

On its website, Echelon describes itself as an official laboratory of the FSB, FSTEC, and Russia’s defense ministry.

Alexey Markov, the president of Echelon, which also inspected the source code for ArcSight, said U.S. companies often initially expressed concerns about the certification process.

“Did they have any? Absolutely!!” Markov wrote in an email.

“The less the person making the decision understands about programming, the more paranoia they have. However, in the process of clarifying the details of performing the certification procedure, the dangers and risks are smoothed out.”

Markov said his team always informs tech companies before handing over any discovered vulnerabilities to Russian authorities, allowing the firms to fix the detected flaw. The source code reviews of products “significantly improves their safety,” he said.

Chris Inglis, the former deputy director of the National Security Agency, the United States’ premier electronic spy agency, disagrees.

“When you’re sitting at the table with card sharks, you can’t trust anyone,” he said. “I wouldn’t show anybody the code.”

Cybersecurity guru McAfee claims his Twitter account hacked to promote alternate cryptocurrencies https://briefnews.eu/cybersecurity-guru-mcafee-claims-his-twitter-account-hacked-to-promote-alternate-cryptocurrencies/ https://briefnews.eu/cybersecurity-guru-mcafee-claims-his-twitter-account-hacked-to-promote-alternate-cryptocurrencies/#respond Thu, 28 Dec 2017 22:35:21 +0000 http://briefnews.eu/cybersecurity-guru-mcafee-claims-his-twitter-account-hacked-to-promote-alternate-cryptocurrencies/

Cryptocurrency enthusiast and cybersecurity pioneer John McAfee has claimed that his Twitter account was compromised by an unknown offender who used his social media account to fraudulently promote “undervalued” digital coins.

McAfee said his Twitter account was compromised and used by a hacker to promote lesser-known cryptocurrencies. The now deleted tweets imitated McAfee’s “coin of the day” posts, which the cyber security expert stopped posting a few days ago, indicating instead, that he will write each Monday on a “coin of the week.”

The alleged hack triggered a joke storm from tweeters, which mainly revolved around advising McAfee to use better anti-virus software. While the cybersecurity guru sold his company some 20 years ago, the McAfee anti-virus software still bears his name. McAfee responded to the mockery by stating he has “no control over Twitter’s security,” adding, that his fame as a cybersecurity guru makes him a primary target for hackers and impersonators with fake accounts.

McAfee also suggested that his account was likely compromised through his mobile phone, pointing out that if this could happen to him, “it can affect anyone.”

Intel falls after settling with John McAfee (INTC) https://briefnews.eu/intel-falls-after-settling-with-john-mcafee-intc/ https://briefnews.eu/intel-falls-after-settling-with-john-mcafee-intc/#respond Thu, 06 Jul 2017 14:59:23 +0000 http://briefnews.eu/intel-falls-after-settling-with-john-mcafee-intc/ Intel is trading down 0.82% at $ 34.04 a share after settling counter lawsuits with John McAfee over the use of the security pioneer’s name.

McAfee agreed not to use his name in connection to cybersecurity products or services as a part of the settlement. He retained the rights to use his name in other contexts, according to Reuters.

The settlement was called ‘amicable’ by court documents.

McAfee, the founder of McAfee Security, sold the company to Intel in 2010 for $ 7.7 billion. He sued Intel after hearing that renaming his new business, MGT Capital Investments, to “John McAfee Global Technologies” would infringe on Intel’s trademarks.

Intel is down 7% this year, including Thursday’s move. The company is trading at $ 34.01 currently.

John McAfee settles Intel lawsuit over the rights to his name https://briefnews.eu/john-mcafee-settles-intel-lawsuit-over-the-rights-to-his-name/ https://briefnews.eu/john-mcafee-settles-intel-lawsuit-over-the-rights-to-his-name/#respond Thu, 06 Jul 2017 09:54:08 +0000 http://briefnews.eu/john-mcafee-settles-intel-lawsuit-over-the-rights-to-his-name/

John McAfee made headlines last year for a bunch of reasons, including a short-lived attempt to run for President of the United States. He also sued Intel for the right to use his name, six years after he sold his eponymous anti-virus company to the tech titan for billions. As they say, though, all’s well that ends well now that the two have decided to settle things amicably. According to Reuters, the two parties already signed an agreement and US District Judge Paul Oetken in Manhattan dismissed his lawsuit and Intel’s countersuit as a result. Under the agreement, McAfee can continue using his name — so long as it’s not for or related to cybersecurity and security products and services.

The tech mogul also agreed not to trademark “John McAfee Privacy Phone” or use “John McAfee Global Technologies.” If you’ll recall, the latter is the reason why he sued Intel in the first place. He wanted to rename MGT Capital Investments Inc. where he currently serves as CEO to “John McAfee Global Technologies.” Intel warned him that doing so would infringe its trademarks, since MGT is in the process of “acquiring and developing a diverse portfolio of cybersecurity technologies.”

Despite the limitations, McAfee has retained the right to use his name for promotions, advertisements and presentations. He might not be able to rename MGT after him, but the ability to use the McAfee name for promotion can still benefit his new company.

McAfee launches a game for World Password Day https://briefnews.eu/mcafee-launches-a-game-for-world-password-day/ https://briefnews.eu/mcafee-launches-a-game-for-world-password-day/#respond Thu, 04 May 2017 06:04:03 +0000 http://briefnews.eu/mcafee-launches-a-game-for-world-password-day/


McAfee has created the True Key Game to celebrate World Password Day. It may seem like a silly thing to do, but security firm McAfee knows that games are engaging and they appeal to people in younger demographics who could stand to learn more about security.

World Password Day is aimed at raising awareness about the importance of creating good passwords that are hard to crack.

“As part of one of the world’s most trusted cyber security companies, McAfee, we know a thing or two about protecting your privacy online and helping to create a safer digital world,” the company said in a blog post. “We want users to feel protected, and we know even small details count. We’re always striving to deliver features designed to increase security and simplify your life. On that note, we have a few exciting new features up our sleeve that we’re unveiling just in time for World Password Day.”

McAfee is also announcing new Firefox and Edge browser extensions to provide an even more user-friendly, faster and all-around improved True Key experience. It has created a brand-new credit card scanner feature for iOS and Android. Now you can keep credit card info handy by simply scanning them with your camera and storing them right in the True Key app.

And it has added advanced face and fingerprint verification for Android which adds another factor of authentication to provide more convenience, and improve your digital security.

McAfee hopes to draw attention to security through its game, which can bolster your knowledge about the ins and outs of password security and show how multi-factor authentication can layer up your login.

As consumer data breaches become more widespread, it is important for the consumers to understand how to better protect themselves and their personal data by leveraging multi-factor authentication across online accounts. The game teaches consumers the benefits of password managers and good password hygiene.

The game was designed by a McAfee employee, Michel Duguay, who created it in his spare time.
