The National Information Technology Development Agency has warned Nigerians about a dangerous banking malware that targets users worldwide through complex phishing schemes. The warning was issued by NITDA’s Computer Emergency Readiness and Response Team on Monday via social media. The agency described the new version of Grandoreiro as a serious threat that uses sophisticated methods to steal sensitive information. According to the agency, the malware employs “advanced techniques, including screen overlay attacks and remote device control, to steal sensitive information such as banking credentials and personal data.” Read Also: TikTok partners NITDA, Data Science Nigeria to strengthen safety NITDA explained that the malware primarily spreads through phishing emails and fraudulent websites. These deceptive platforms trick victims into downloading malicious software by disguising it as legitimate updates or documents. Once installed, the malware can bypass security protections, giving attackers unauthorized access to users’ devices. The agency warned that this could result in significant financial losses and potential identity theft. The agency urged the public to exercise caution and adopt recommended security measures to mitigate the risk. “Cyber threats like Grandoreiro are evolving, and users need to stay vigilant and adopt robust security practices to protect their information,” the agency advised. NITDA recommended avoiding links and attachments from unknown emails, downloading software only from trusted sources, and enabling multifactor authentication for online banking and financial accounts. The agency also emphasized the importance of keeping antivirus software updated, avoiding public Wi-Fi for financial transactions, and regularly monitoring bank accounts for unauthorized activities.Dow Jones Futures: Nvidia Stock Tumbles To Key Level; Fed Inflation Data Looms
NEW YORK (AP) — No ex-president had a more prolific and diverse publishing career than Jimmy Carter . His more than two dozen books included nonfiction, poetry, fiction, religious meditations and a children’s story. His memoir “An Hour Before Daylight” was a Pulitzer Prize finalist in 2002, while his 2006 best-seller “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid” stirred a fierce debate by likening Israel’s policies in the West Bank to the brutal South African system of racial segregation. And just before his 100th birthday, the Dayton Literary Peace Prize Foundation honored him with a lifetime achievement award for how he wielded “the power of the written word to foster peace, social justice, and global understanding.” In one recent work, “A Full Life,” Carter observed that he “enjoyed writing” and that his books “provided a much-needed source of income.” But some projects were easier than others. “Everything to Gain,” a 1987 collaboration with his wife, Rosalynn, turned into the “worst threat we ever experienced in our marriage,” an intractable standoff for the facilitator of the Camp David accords and winner of the Nobel Peace Prize. According to Carter, Rosalynn was a meticulous author who considered “the resulting sentences as though they have come down from Mount Sinai, carved into stone.” Their memories differed on various events and they fell into “constant arguments.” They were ready to abandon the book and return the advance, until their editor persuaded them to simply divide any disputed passages between them. “In the book, each of these paragraphs is identified by a ‘J’ or an ‘R,’ and our marriage survived,” he wrote. Here is a partial list of books by Carter: “Keeping Faith: Memoirs of a President” “The Blood of Abraham: Insights into the Middle East” (With Rosalynn Carter) “Everything to Gain: Making the Most of the Rest of Your Life” “An Outdoor Journal: Adventures and Reflections” “Turning Point: A Candidate, a State, and a Nation Come of Age” “Always a Reckoning, and Other Poems” (With daughter Amy Carter) “The Little Baby Snoogle-Fleejer” “Living Faith” “The Virtues of Aging” “An Hour Before Daylight: Memories of a Rural Boyhood” “Christmas in Plains: Memories” “The Hornet’s Nest: A Novel of the Revolutionary War” “Our Endangered Values: America’s Moral Crisis” “Faith & Freedom: The Christian Challenge for the World” “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid” “A Remarkable Mother” “Beyond the White House” “We Can Have Peace in the Holy Land: A Plan That Will Work” “White House Diary” “NIV Lessons from Life Bible: Personal Reflections with Jimmy Carter” “A Call to Action: Women, Religion, Violence, and Power” “A Full Life: Reflections at Ninety”Saudi, Egyptian FMs discuss over phone situation in Syria and GazaIt’s a fashion brand antisemites will love to hate. An adjunct professor at the Fashion Institute of Technology who was suspended after getting arrested while counter-protesting an anti-Israel rally is launching a new fashion line he hopes will “piss off the Jew haters.” Mark Greiz’s Generation Diaspora is touted as a collection of proudly Zionist clothing and accessories launches, offering such items as women’s $20 underwear that boldly proclaim “Kiss My Ham-ass” and $28 T-shirts that read “F*ck Hamas.” Another tee reads, “Trigger Warning: This brand contains content that may offend neo-Nazis, Jew-haters, Hamas lovers, self-haters, anti-Zionists and radical leftists.” Other more poignant pieces include totes that say “Never Forget, Never Forgive,” referring to the Oct. 7 attacks by Hamas terrorists on Israel. For Greiz, a 56-year-old descendant of Holocaust survivors, the line, which launches on Dec. 10, is more than just selling merchandise. “The goal for me is not really to change the hearts and minds of people that hate Jews and Israel, but to community among Jews, especially young Jews,” he told The Post. “I want to collaborate in the future, with other pro-Israel artists, musicians and poets,” he added. Items from three different collections will be printed on demand and range in price from $20 to $50.
