IDG News Service - Google and other enterprises still face a bleak computer security landscape that makes their companies vulnerable to hackers, whether they do business in China or not, analysts say.
Google's chief legal officer revealed on Tuesday that the company and more than 20 other technology, financial and software companies were targeted by hackers, motivated to steal intellectual property and intelligence on human rights activists.
In protest, Google said it would stop censoring search engine results as demanded by the Chinese government and is considering halting its business within the country.
"I think the logic is clear: Google is disappointed, perhaps, with the result of its policy to agree to be censored in China," said Whit Andrews, lead Google analyst for Gartner. "They are no doubt frustrated by security breaches which they perceive are related to their existence in China."
But Andrews and others analysts say the distributed nature of the Internet means Google and other enterprises are at no less risk from hackers sympathetic to Chinese policy by not doing business in that country.
"My sense is that there would be relatively no major impact on Google's ability to defend itself based on whether it has business operations in China or not," Andrews said.
To steal information from computers, hackers often try to trick people into installing malicious software. Hackers can do that through social engineering, such as constructing an e-mail that appears to come from a friend or colleague but that carries a malicious program or file as an attachment.
The technique is known as spear phishing. Last year, researchers from the SecDev Group, a think tank, and the Munk Center for International Studies at the University of Toronto revealed a deep spying network dubbed GhostNet that in part used spear phishing to infect computers in 103 countries. Although some of the computers involved in GhostNet were found to be in China, the government there denied any involvement in the massive spying network.
In one example, computers belonging to Tibetan activists were sent e-mails containing a malicious Microsoft Word document that would exploit a vulnerability in that application, installing other software that allowed hackers to steal documents.
"Since then, of course, we've attempted to take a number of security precautions so that this type of incident doesn't happen again," said Tenzin Taklha, spokesman for the Office of His Holiness the Dalai Lama in Dharamsala, India. "It's an ongoing effort. It's not just something that you do in one day."
The attacks can be difficult to trace, as hackers route their probes through worldwide networks of other hacked computers known as botnets. Up to 25% of computers infected with botnet code are in enterprise networks, said Rik Ferguson, senior security adviser for Trend Micro.
Because commands to those bots are encrypted, it can be difficult for investigators to identify who is behind the attacks, he said.
"It's a shifting landscape all the time," Ferguson said. "The more success that law enforcement and the security industry had, the more we oblige the criminal element to innovate and find new ways to do things."
The attacks against Google were low-volume operations, which means it is trivial for the perpetrators to cover their tracks, said Scott Borg, director and chief economist for the U.S. Cyber Consequences Unit, an independent nonprofit research institute that assesses the impact of cyberattacks.
"Almost anyone who is willing to go to enough trouble can obtain anonymous Internet access, even in China," Borg said. "It is possible that the senior Chinese leaders are right now trying to find out who did what."
Even with stronger security, there will always be a small window of opportunity for hackers.
While many software companies now create patches faster for vulnerable software, there still is a gap of time in between when the vulnerability is found and when the fix is ready. If a vulnerability is already being exploited when it is publicly disclosed and there is no patch, it is known as a zero-day attack, the most dangerous type of problem.
It's doubtful there will be a day when software will be free of vulnerabilities said Andre' M. DiMino, co-founder of Shadowserver, a volunteer-run organization that tracks botnets.
"As long as there are unpatched applications and operating systems, poorly secured networks and Web sites, as well as users not taking basic precautions, we'll continue to see system compromises," DiMino said.
Google's revelations are further affirmation of what other analysts have said is an uptick in industrial espionage using computers.
"Let's be honest: If you can hack Google, there must be a lot of technology companies that should be similarly worried about their systems," said Tom Watson, a Labour Member of Parliament for West Bromich East.
Watson put forth an early-day motion in the U.K.'s Parliament on Wednesday, a motion that other U.K. lawmakers can sign on to show their support for Google's decision to stop censoring search engine results in China.

Hackers used rigged PDFs to hit Google -- and Adobe, says researcher
Adobe confirms attack against its network linked to Google's

Computerworld - Adobe today confirmed that the cyberattack that hit its corporate network earlier this month was connected to the large-scale attacks Google cited yesterday as one reason it might abandon China.
Meanwhile, some researchers have hinted, and others have claimed, that the attacks against both Google and Adobe were based on malicious PDFs that exploited a just-patched vulnerability in Adobe's popular Reader software.
Adobe is the first company to step forward after Google announced yesterday that the attacks were aimed at accessing Gmail accounts of human rights activists.
"We are still in the process of conducting our investigation into the incident," said Wiebke Lips, Adobe's senior manager of corporate communications, in an e-mail reply to questions today. "[But] It appears that this incident and the one Google announced earlier are related."
Yesterday, Google and Adobe acknowledged that their company systems had been struck by what both firms characterized as "sophisticated" attacks. Google added that it believed the attacks against its network, which took place last month, originated in China.
Google claimed that some of its intellectual property was stolen in the attack, and added that another aim of the assault was to access the Gmail accounts of Chinese human-rights activists. The California-based search firm cited the latter, as well as ever-more-restrictive rules ordered by the Chinese government, in its decision to review its business in the country.
If the Chinese do not allow Google to run its Chinese search engine unfiltered, the company may pull out of the lucrative market.
Adobe also admitted yesterday that it had been targeted by attackers. "Adobe became aware on January 2, 2010 of a computer security incident involving a sophisticated, coordinated attack against corporate network systems managed by Adobe and other companies," the company said in a Tuesday statement posted on its company blog. "At this time, we have no evidence to indicate that any sensitive information -- including customer, financial, employee or any other sensitive data -- has been compromised."
Security researchers hinted earlier today that the attacks against Google, Adobe and dozens of other major firms were conducted using malicious PDFs that exploited one or more vulnerabilities in Adobe Reader. Analysts at Verisign's iDefense security group told Robert McMillan of IDGNews today that hackers had launched targeted attacks using a malicious document attached to e-mail messages.
While iDefense did not identify rogue PDFs as the malformed documents, its researchers claimed that the attachments exploited a "zero-day" -- a vulnerability that had not yet been patched -- in a "one of the major document types," a definition that certainly fits Adobe's PDF format.
Only yesterday did Adobe patch a zero-day in Reader. The bug had been publicly known since mid-December, and used surreptitiously by hackers for at least several weeks before that.
Adobe denied any link between the two events -- its patching of Reader and the announcement that it had been attacked. The security update had been on the schedule for months, said Lips, since Adobe now releases Reader patches quarterly.
Mikko Hypponen, the chief research officer of Helsinki-based F-Secure, disagreed. Although F-Secure has not been directly involved in investigating the attacks, Hypponen said he has talked with other researchers who were. "This was an attack launched via a convincing e-mail with an exploit-ridden PDF attachment," Hypponen said today in a telephone interview. He also said that those researchers, who he would not identify, told him that the PDF documents were exploiting the Reader zero-day patched on Tuesday.
"These kinds of targeted attacks using PDFs have been going on for quite a while," said Hypponen. "There's nothing new technically in any of these attacks, including the ones against Google and Adobe."
Hypponen was on the money in that regard. Adobe, for example, patched four Reader zero-day vulnerabilities last year, while some statistics show Adobe exploits are among the most prevalent on the Web.
Hypponen also took a stab at whether the Chinese government was directly responsible for the attacks, something that some have argued by reading between the lines of Google's announcement. "One theory is that the government, maybe the PLA (People's Liberation Army), is behind this. The other is that it's the usual idiots, local Chinese hackers who are encouraged and perhaps supported by authorities."
Hypponen laid his bet on the latter. "Indirect evidence supports the second theory," he said, citing the properties traits of malicious documents that typically show the creator's name as something like "shadowhunt" or "darkknight."
"Those are hacker names, not [the name of] a sergeant in the PLA," he said. "But we don't have a smoking gun."
Adobe denied that a Reader vulnerability was the basis of the attacks, or that malicious PDFs had been used to hack the company's own network. "In terms of the attack vector, this is still being determined as part of our ongoing investigation," Lips said. "At this time, we have no evidence to suggest that Adobe Reader was an attack vector."
