Northumbria Police has produced its first ever package of short films, posters and leaflets without the use of any language or text. The specialist Language-Free Crime Prevention package of information is aimed at migrant communities and people whose first language is not English. It focuses on eight key topic areas – anti-social behaviour, knife crime, hate crime, suspicious behaviour leading onto more series crime such as terrorism, violent crime, internet safety, alcohol leading to vulnerability and driving in the UK. Some of the messages are informative such as you need a driving licence, MOT certificate and insurance to drive legally in the UK, others more complex, eg simple arguments can quickly escalate into more violent incidents, walk away and call police. With the help of funding from the Migration Impact Fund, design agency Beacon Creative, based in Gateshead and Newcastles Superkrush Films worked with Northumbria Police to produce the package.

Swiss Cyber Storm 3 – May 2011 “Zeus botnets are trojans accountable for a large percentage of all trojan infections. Zeuss availability and ease of use make it popular amongst malicious individuals with low technical sophistication. Better social engineering scams, coupled with consistent levels of victim unawareness and carelessness on the part of software vendors, have created a need for greater web security. Using a standard LAMP stack and web programming techniques, a guideline was developed to mitigate and reduce the exposure of sensitive information from compromised clients. Because of the resultant confusion, attackers have either given up and moved on to an easier target, or have spent significant amounts of resources undoing damage to harvested POST data. The immediate objective of implementing these new techniques is to reduce the efficacy of Zeus and its counterparts and ebb cybercrime and identity fraud. Future use of these techniques will provide better chances against the compromising of users and web applications.” Slides: media.hacking-lab.com Event: www.swisscyberstorm.com
