U.S. Army special agents from the Army Criminal Investigation Command
have 'proved' that NetBus and Back Orifice can be used to hijack desktop
camera and microphone applications for the purposes of industrial
espionage, spying or to gather evidence for a criminal investigation.
The commandeered cameras and microphones can then secretly send data to
a monitoring station unbeknownst to the end user.

While more than 1000 soldiers from both India and Pakistan died fighting
in an undeclared war in the mountains of Kashmir, the two countries were
slugging it out in cyber space too. Indian and Pakistani computer
professionals in the United States and Europe helped their home
countries by handing out information on how to cripple the enemy's
computer systems. An interview with an Indian Army Major would not
confirm that the attacks on computer systems where sponsored by the
Pakistani government, and went on to say that India would not resort to
such childish acts as cyber terrorism.

The largest Czech savings bank, Ceska Sporitelna, may have had large
amounts of its data stolen. Local police investigating the situation
have not yet made any arrests. Customer names, addresses and complete
list of transactions for more than 2.5 million clients are supposedly no
longer in the banks hands. It is unclear from this article what the
thief of this information wants.

London-based mi2g software has claimed to have done a 'post mortem' of
the defacement of the NASDAQ web site, perpetrated last week by the
United Loan Gunmen. mi2g is claiming that unpatched vulnerabilities in
Microsoft's Internet Information Server were exploited. <i>(And how do
they know this? Are they sure it was IIS and not NT? Did NASDAQ hire
these people to analyze the logs? Or are they just making stuff up?)</i>
