Symantec Statement: Malware und Gaming

(PresseBox) (Ratingen, )
Malware und Gaming: In der letzten Zeit ist immer wieder von Angriffen auf Spielekonsolen die Rede. Zudem verwendete jetzt ein neuseeländischer Sicherheitsexperte eine Sony Playstation 3, um Passwörter zu hacken. Angriffe auf Konsolen sind jedoch noch Einzelfälle, denn sie sind durch ihre geschlossenen (proprietären) Systeme relativ gut geschützt. Symantec Sicherheitsexperte Candid Wüest schätzt die Lage wie folgt ein: "Die aktuelle Bedrohung von Spielekonsolen durch Malware ist derzeit noch relativ gering. Ihre Verwundbarkeit für Web Exploits wird in dem Moment zunehmen, in dem sie mehr mit normalen Internet Browsern ausgestattet werden."
