Black Hat and DEFCON are upon us dominating the InfoSec headlines. Reverse-engineering irises to thwart biometric scanners, exploiting NFC to infect phones with malware and hacking hotel room keycard readers are just a fraction of the monsters in the closet coming from Las Vegas this week.

In real (vs. imagined) threatnews, we learned this week more than 8 million accounts were compromised at Gamigo in a February data breach. Also, Anonymous Australia targeted several Oz government websites and breached an ISP to protest policies on data retention. Seculert and Kaspersky continued to blog about the Mahdi malware campaign after a variant compiled just this week was observed in the wild. The Mac malware catalog grew this week as OSX/Crisis (AKA Morcut) was discovered spying on Mac users. And in a bizarre turn of events, an employee of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran emailed F-Secure to report malware causing computers at Iranian nuclear facilities to blast music by AC/DC. The RISK Team assesses Iran?s been ?Thunderstruck.?
