Update on DigiNotar

Earlier this week we talked about Google
being attacked by DigiNotar, and we have an update to share with you. It has
been reported that Safari users on Mac OS X are still vulnerable to fraudulent
security ceritificates.

DigitNotar was hacked earlier this week and
issued hundreds of fake security certificates for websites like Google, Yahoo! And
others. Both Microsoft and Google revoked trust in the certificates as a fraud prevention tool.

 

As of yet, Apple has not provided a patch for
the Safari browser, so users are being told to mark any identity verification
certificates issued by DigiNotar as Never trust. Like always, your security
is in your hands. We will keep you up-to-date on new DigiNotar findings as they
arise.
