Financial Crimes using the Internet have dramatically increased.  The use of crime-ware applications like Zeus, Phoenix, Spy-Eye and Citadel have wreaked havoc against banking institutions and their customers.  Security Consultants from Secure Network will explain how these applications in combination with social engineering and hacking techniques are leveraged against you and your bank.  The presentation will cover actual cases that involved these applications as well as explain in detail how the crimes were committed.  Additional content includes:

  • What is the crime-ware tool kit comprised of.
  • How the crime-ware kit delivers the malware needed to infiltrate systems.
  • How spam and phishing emails can lead to identity and financial loss
  • How the compromised systems are tracked by the hacker.
  • How authentication controls of the victim are compromised.
  • How compromised authentication is used to move money.
  • How money mules are recruited
  • How money mules collect and transfer stolen funds.
  • What you need to know, to not become a victim.
