e Natanz nuclear facility in Iran were forced to spin out of control causing damage.However in November we learned that Stuxnet, which was created by Israel and the US,Supra TK Society High Tops Purple Lime UK, was the second wave and that an older, stealthier piece of malware in the Stuxnet family had been in operation since 2007, three years before Stuxnet was deployed.While it may have done it in a slightly different manner, Stuxnet Mark I as it is called,2011 Supra Skytop Womens, was also designed to target centrifuges at nuclear enrichment facilities. Mark I could only be spread by being physically installed and it is not clear whether it was successful or not.7. International Space Station – the final cyber frontierIn November we also learned that orbiting 370km above the earth is not enough to prevent being compromised by malware. Russian security expert Eugene Kaspersky revealed that the International Space Station was infected by a USB stick carried into space by a Russian astronaut.The International Space Station was infected by malware. (Reuters)It is unclear if there was any impact on the operation of the space station, but it goes to show how easy it is to spread malware.The ISS has now switched over to Linux systems to make it more "reliable and stable."8. CryptoLocker – the new ransomware threatCryptoLocker first emerged in September 2013, but it wasn't until December that the UK's National Crime Agency felt the need to issue a warning that tens of millions of people were under threat.Just a couple of weeks ago, research revealed that up to 250,000 PCs had been infected and that the gang behind the ransomware was earning millions of pounds from the piece of malware.In short, once installed on your PC, CryptoLocker encrypts all files on your hard drive, USB drives connected to your computer or even files in cloud folders such as Dropbox. It then gives you an ultimatum: Pay up (in bitcoins of course) or your files will be lost forever. And this is no hoax, once the time expires, the criminals behind the malware follow through on their threats.9. The continued rise of the hacktivist2012 was certainly the year when we saw groups like Anonymous emerge from the dark corners of the internet and make a major splash, and while hacktivists may not have captured as many headlines in the last 12 months, the movement continues to grow.Twitter: @KetyDCJust last month we saw Anonymous move from the internet and into the public gaze once again with its Million Mask March, which took place in dozens of cities around the world, highlighting the global appeal of the movement, and that millions of people still need an outlet like hactivism.The easy-to-use Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack continues to be the tool of choice for hacktivists.10. Edward Snowden – He changed everythingReviled by some, hero worshipped by others, Edward Snowden has changed the way we will view the internet forever.The former NSA contractor's theft of a treasure trove of top secret documents relating to the widespread surveillance of phone calls, emails and pretty much all online activity around the world caused huge headaches for the US and UK governments in particular and led to questioning of the practices taking place.Snowden, currently in hiding in Russia,2012 New Supra Tk Society High Tops Red Balck, faces the threat of imprisonment if he ever returns to the US but 2014 is likey to see the impact of his whistle-blowing grow, and details of even more governmental spying being published. <div
