BCP/DRP
Question, what do Bing.com and Authorize.net have in common? Who would have guessed that they both have servers located in a data center that has had a fire? Or that they may have to put more into the planning portion of Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity? Authorize.net has been completely down for several hours now. Bing.com/travel had this to say: "A fire occurred at Fisher Plaza in downtown Seattle just after midnight on Friday morning. The blown transformer knocked out power to the entire building, which is home to the Bing Travel servers. We're hard at work to restore service following this unexpected event. Our current estimate for re-establishing Bing Travel functionality is 5pm PST, July 3rd." Perhaps they should have read one of our SANS papers on BCP/DRP planning. Reading room link is here. More information is available at this twitter http://twitter.com/authorizenet where Authorize.net are tweeting. The media are also following the story, KOMO a local station was knocked offline but are broadcasting from a backup site.
Update: Authorize.net appear to be at least partially back up and running.
Cheers,

Happy 4th of July!
Celebrate, watch fireworks, but don't click on links in emails or surf to sites with Fourth of July, Independence day, or Fireworks as key words. Websense is reporting that Waledac will be using the above subjects in emails with links to sites that appear to be a video, but instead downloads malware. Their alert is here. More information is also available at the ESET blog here.
Authorize.net down
The credit card payment gateway authorize.net is currently down. A fire at their data center is apparently the cause. Thanks to Joey, Tommy, and Jonathan for writing in.

distribute malware. Even if the URL listed on the ad shows a legitimate website, subsequent ad traffic can easily lead to a fake page. Different types of malware are distributed in this manner. I've seen IcedID (Bokbot), Gozi/ISFB, and various information stealers distributed through fake software websites that were provided through Google ad traffic. I submitted malicious files from this example to VirusTotal and found a low rate of detection, with some files not showing as malware at all. Additionally, domains associated with this infection frequently change. That might make it hard to detect.
