US Studying Ways To End Use of Social Security Numbers For ID
U.S officials are studying ways to end the use of social security numbers for identification following a series of data breaches compromising the data for millions of Americans.The White House cybersecurity coordinator told a forum at the Washington Post that officials were studying ways to use "modern cryptographic identifiers" to replace social security numbers.His comments come after news that some 145 million Americans may have had personal information leaked, including the important social security numbers, in a breach at Equifax, one of three big US firms which collect data for credit applications.The administration has asked officials from several agencies to come up with ideas for "a better system" which may involve cryptography. This may involve "a public and private key" including something that could be revoked if it has been compromised.Get some more details here

Never before seen virus behaviour(?)
So I was looking to download an application called "iso2eboot" but every link I found did not work. So when I went to google it, the first suggestion was "iso2eboot v3 download" and so I clicked it and the first result was "http://ift.tt/2gbFRGl". I entered the website and at first I thought it's one of those websites that have downloads named after the program you're looking for but actually end up giving you a suspicious looking installer with a very generic icon on it. Anyway, the website itself wasn't at all related to the program I was looking for, and I thought it could just be a website that you can upload stuff but it looked like whatever I searched for in that website I would just find a fake upload that is just a virus(Virustotall says it's clean). So this file I found was a .zip named after the program I'm looking for. I opened it and inside it there was another .zip file (with the same name) instead of another folder (which is most common with archived folders). So I thought it was probably archived twice so that Antiviruses can't detect it. Anyways I extracted the .zip as a folder and the application had RAR Installer icon. I opened the app and it was some sort of installer and I noticed it said somewhere "Source:" and some long name like "torrentz-something". And I know that what I'm looking for doesn't have ANYTHING to do with torrenting. So I just closed the application, and then shortcuts from my desktop started disappearing. I noticed it was all the Google Chrome shortcuts (Chrome itself and two other website shortcuts with the icons of the websites) and soon after the two website shortcuts where "replaced" by two other shortcuts named exactly the same as the original ones but had and outdated version of the Chrome logo. I can't recall the Chrome browser shortcut being replaced another one other than the website shortcuts. My antivirus later found the threat and the shortcuts disappeared, I later checked on avast and the virus it found was a "component.exe" in my user Temp folder. The taskbar shortcut for Google Chrome was also missing it's icon. I tried creating the desktop icon for Chrome again and it said the shortcut already existed. I later chose the option on Windows Explorer to view hidden items and guess what? All my original shortcuts were hidden on my desktop with the appropriate icons, so I moved them to their original position.Was it some sort of hijacker that tried to make me click on the fake browser shortcuts? If so then why would it "hide" the original Icon's instead of just erase them entirely? I have past experience with web-browser hijackers and none of them worked like that, they all just somehow added a toolbar on your browser. What type of virus this one is, I don't know.
