Has just been released on Ansa news. that it contains statements of Symantec, a company specializing in computer data security and protection of privacy, stating that Facebook had over the years published a huge amount of data on its users, thanks to a security system is not appropriate to be overcome with a fairly easy by most experts.
Another scandal is ready to take over the scene, after the resounding that has devastated the Sony and its PlayStation Network dedicated to the live gaming, data security system failed multiple times with potentially disastrous damage to the Japanese company. The same fate would come to Facebook, which according to Symantec would be easy to breach, putting at risk the confidential information of millions of users, unaware of the danger.
The giant founded by Mark Zuckerberg has already announced that it will immediately resolve the problem with a drastic step to curb the flaws in the security system, which could be exploited by hackers to gain information that users would be strictly confidential. Fortunately in this new scandal, are not endangered the finances of people who do not place any kind of code or data on credit cards or bank ordinates of any kind, which could cost the cloning of cards and drain bank accounts, but this can not be an excuse because, if the news is confirmed, would be violated virtually all users' data, starting with names, until you get to private messages and chat, which could easily be intercepted.
The fight against piracy was still a long way to go but it seems that in this period, the path looks more and more like a maze, given the ease with which some computer experts are able to access systems from the complex and data protection such as Sony, global giant with a turnover of billions of euro per year.
This brings out a sense of helplessness in the management of small-mail accounts or access data of social networks and websites, which when compared to systems such as those mentioned above, resemble the riddles of the puzzle week for a hacker to mid-level having a level of security rather trivial and already broken many times in many cases.
We just have to put our faith, as we usually do, in companies such as Symantec, that daily struggle and study new increasingly complex systems to make work impossible for hackers, only to be beaten by the classic leaks, as many assume is the case with Sony. In the case of piracy of Facebook, according to Symantec, hackers would not have realized the potential was available in those moments of free violation of the protection system, will cause no harm to anyone or anything, at least for the moment, this is a But that possibility does not change things much, as the penetration of the system could be attempted by malicious individuals could use this time to the full potential of the database of the world's most popular social network.
The advice to avoid being easily circumvented is to assess well the choice of applications that you plan to install, they in fact only the front door to the invasion of privacy from hackers who install components on your PC, get information directly from your account or from any source attached to your PC, having the green light to virtually complete elimination of dangerous source, from which we do not receive any warning sign, so pay attention to is the number one rule in these cases.
