Blizzard Gaming has won $8.5 million copyright damages against German company Bossland, which creates “cheats”, “hacks” to give gamers unfair advantage.

Ilia Kolochenko, CEO of web security firm, High-Tech Bridge reacts: “This is a very interesting case, however it’s not really a case of criminal hacking, but rather of an unlawful enrichment in violation of third-party intellectual property. In pure cybercrime cases, intruders (i.e. defendants in the court) are almost always unknown, and their identification is either technically impossible or economically impractical. Another important question in the particular case, is whether the German company will be able to pay, and if it will pay the compensation. Being headquartered and physically located in Germany, they can continuously try to delay the payment.”

London, UK: Poor security awareness, coupled with an insatiable demand for mobile apps, are placing UK consumers’ identities and devices at risk. A new nationwide survey commissioned by RiskIQ of 1,000 people across the country* reveals that almost half (45 per cent) do not scrutinise the app’s details while 60 per cent never or only occasionally review the privacy policy and permissions requested by the app before downloading. Such a fast and carefree approach to mobile apps is leaving UK consumers vulnerable to cyber criminals seeking to infect the mobile devices and steal information from unsuspecting victims.
