Phones / Malware Hits Millions Of Android Phones. Is Your Phone Affected? Mine Was. by ogunsinamayowa(m): 12:38pm On Jul 08, 2016 |
Up to 10 million Android smartphones have been infected by malware that generates fake clicks for adverts, say security researchers. The software is also surreptitiously installing apps and spying on the browsing habits of victims. The malware is currently making about $300,000 (£232,000) a month for its creators, suggests research. The majority of phones that have been compromised by the malicious software are in China. Remote control A spike in the number of phones infected by the malware was noticed separately by security companies Checkpoint and Lookout. The malware family is called Shedun by Lookout but Hummingbad by Checkpoint In a blogpost, Checkpoint said it had obtained access to the command-and-control servers that oversee infected phones which revealed that Hummingbad was now on about 10 million devices. China, India, the Philippines and Indonesia top the list of nations with most phones infected by the software. Hummingbad is a type of malware known as a rootkit that inserts itself deep inside a phone's operating system to help it avoid detection and to give its controllers total control over the handset. The ability to control phones remotely has been used to click on ads to make them seem more popular than they actually are. The access has also been used to install fake versions of popular apps or spread programs the gang has been paid to promote. "It can remain persistent even if the user performs a factory reset," wrote Kristy Edwards from Lookout in a blogpost. "It uses its root privileges to install additional apps on to the device, further increasing ad revenue for the authors and defeating uninstall attempts." Ms Edwards said the recent spike in infections could be driven by the gang behind the malware adding more functions or using their access to phones for different purposes. The malware gets installed on handsets by exploiting loopholes in older versions of the Android operating system known as KitKat and JellyBean. The latest version of Android is known as Marshmallow. In a statement, Google said: ""We've long been aware of this evolving family of malware and we're constantly improving our systems that detect it. We actively block installations of infected apps to keep users and their information safe." Google released the latest security update for Android this month and it tackled more than 108 separate vulnerabilities in the operating system. So far this year, security updates for Android have closed more than 270 bugs. Source: BBC |

Education / Jamb Cut- Off Mark :fg Scraps Post Utme. by ogunsinamayowa(m): 4:45pm On Jun 02, 2016 |
The Federal Government Thursday scrapped the conduct of post Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations (UTME) for candidates seeking admission into higher institution.The government explained that all tertiary institutions were at liberty to conduct screening for candidates seeking admission into any school.Minister of Education, Mallam Adamu Adamu, said this on Thursday in Abuja after declaring open the 2016 Combined Policy Meeting on Admissions to Universities, Polytechnics and other higher institutions in Nigeria.Adamu, expressed confidence in the examination conducted by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), adding that there was no need for other examination to be conducted by universities after JAMB.He said: “As far as I am concerned the nation has confidence in what JAMB is doing. The universities should not be holding another examination and if the universities have any complain against JAMB let them bring it and then we address it.“If JAMB is qualified enough to conduct tests and they have conducted test then there will be no need to conduct another test for students to gain admission.”The Minister also asked the JAMB to stop extra charges on several categories of changes on admissions such as the change of course, change of school and others.Meanwhile, the JAMB has pegged the cut – off mark for admission for 2016 at 180.The 180 benchmark, applies to all universitiesand higher institutions in the country, including polytechnics, colleges of education,and others.JAMB’s Registrar and Chief Executive Officer,Prof. Dibu Ojerinde, after a long debate with delegates from various institutions, told journalists that no institution would go below the 180 cut-off set by the board.He said: “180 is given, no institution will go below 180 this year, And some universities can go above it, I know University of Ife will not go below 200 and University of Lagos willnot go below 200 and also UI. All these ones stand but 180 as bench mark for others.“This year we have more than enough candidates, we have over 1.5 million candidates so we will get enough candidates to take in all the schools if they are serious. Re-distribution is already ongoing, because it is embedded in the registration procedure.” http://thenationonlineng.net/fg-scraps-post-utme/ |

Education / Re: University Of Ibadan 2015/16 Applicants by ogunsinamayowa(m): 9:21am On Feb 11, 2016 |
Praissey: Yes, there is commission on remita. But if you pay through UI micro finance you have to pay another 200 for commission. Making the commissions to be up to 500 naira. You will only pay one commission when you pay online. and for IT levy, it's part of the fees. So i pay it to avoid the story that touch. I think it mandatory. chibuezewilliam: It's part of the fees. |
Education / Re: University Of Ibadan 2015/16 Applicants by ogunsinamayowa(m): 12:10am On Feb 11, 2016 |
If you have not paid your school fees and accommodation, kindly pay through remita. The process is damn easy. You will receive process of your payment via email and the receipt will be sent to your mail immediately you complete your payment transaction. darm easy! No commission! I blame myself for paying my school fees and IT levy through the stressful Micro Finance method yesterday with the extortionate payment that was euphemized into commission. What type of commission is that? Nonsense. Before i forget, make sure you pay your accommodation online by yourself. Selah. |
