Microsoft Windows

Do you think you have Windows updated to date is sure? Wrong.

Recent research has shown a new technique with which to hack microsoft's popular operating system, even its latest version, Windows 10, in an undetectable way.

Baptized with the name of ‘AtomBombing‘, the attack does not exploit any computer security flaws, if not a weakness in the design of the Windows operating system.

For example, this attack would allow cybercriminals to access the encrypted passwords stored by the browser. Another even more dangerous example would be the one that would allow the attacker to modify the content of a web page., like your bank's, so that when making a transaction you see on the screen something totally different from what the server of your bank is showing.

Unfortunately, this problem has a difficult solution, since it is not a security breach, if not of a malicious use of operating system functions, no patch can be applied to correct it. To fix it, Microsoft would have to redesign the way the operating system works.
