RE: n3td3v group calls on RSA to clarify theirstance

["HTRegz" <htregz () aoaddicts net>]

While I’m not normally one to reply to this list… I can’t stand to see this
go on any further. Don’t expect another response as I don’t have the time
(other than late Friday night) to sit and respond to this drivel.. 

 

n3td3v:

How do you figure on this single user Microsoft Windows XP computer?? 

 

Last time I checked Windows XP was a multi-user environment… Also… if it’s
not a botnet it must be Windows… that’s a rather childish thought…. Also a
botnet has negative connotations.. That is to say, it’s a group of PCs under
the control of a single individual or group. This group of PCs (Zombies) are
used mostly for illegal purposes, or on IRC networks (different sort of
botnet… where the name was derived from). 

 

What makes you think that RSA has a single IP… that’s a pretty foolhardy
belief. They aren’t some kid on a cable modem. In fact, a quick search of
ARIN, assuming only RSA Security shows they have several net blocks

The odds are that others involved in this will contribute machines on their
networks.. and that RSA owns blocks not listed above… servers setup on these
blocks running the software will submit information to the pages… This is
not a botnet… If this is a botnet then the worlds SMTP servers are a huge
botnet… oh yeah and the Root DNS servers must be a botnet… 

 

We’re not asking a lot here.. just that you think a little and approach this
from at least somewhat of a technical understanding… 

 

Others have already pointed out why this will work from a banks
point-of-view and others on why phishers are not automated… I’m now showing
you why this isn’t some big illegal botnet… and how it’s a completely legal
operation…. I’d bet that by inviting hackers… RSA is saying run the
software… Think of it as distributed computing… Is that a big illegal botnet
as well?? 

 

Peace,
HT

If the RSA aren't using a bot network, then are you suggesting they are
sending garbage data from one single user Microsoft Windows XP computer....
to all the worlds phishing logins? Wake up mr se cur ity at hotmail dot com

so... the "n3td3v group" has "a few [of our ] botnets"  did I hear this
right? ( *blink* )
somehow I dont think RSA is using "botnets", which BTW are ILLEGAL in *most*

countries
( yes, including your precious UK )

I just want to thank the biggest security group ( lol ) for using teh
botz!!!
I am sure Yahoo-Inc, Google, EBay, Microsoft and FooBarBlehCo will thank
you publicly on CNN so we will know how n3td3v group saved us all with 
botnets!!!

thanks b0td3v gr0upz,
MW
