NSA is known to be very secretive in its functions. For the first time, the security agency has declared that it will release a tool that will help to reverse engineer any malware. The tool will be free to use and will work with operating software such as iOS, Microsoft, Andriod, and macOS. The fantastic thing to note is that reverse engineering of malware isn’t new but it was expensive and with NSA’s free tool, any person with the know-how will be able to tear down a malware. The NSA’s free and open project will make its tool not just popular but also more robust. A win-win for all.

A recent phishing scam is taking iPhone users by surprise. It’s so convincing that if you’re not careful, you might just fall into its trap. The phishing scam calls the iPhone users and pretends to be coming from Apple’s support center. The scary part of this scam is that when the call is received it shows the Apple logo, its official number, and Apple’s real address too. The only red flag is the request to call on another number which is made to the iPhone users. The phishing scams against the iPhone users aren’t new, but this latest development is taking things a notch above the rest.
