Linux Hacked Again. "Hide and Seek" Becomes First IoT BotnetCapable of Surviving Device Reboots

Security researchers have discovered the first IoT botnet malware strain that can survive device reboots and remain on infected devices after the initial compromise. The "internet of things" has always been an appallingly bad idea. Cheap, poorly-designed devices with little or no security to begin with that typically are never updated. What could possibly go wrong? The underlying OS is of no real relevance in this scenario. It is a recipe for disaster no matter how you cut it. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Roger Blake (Posts from Google Groups killfiled due to excess spam.)
