Hacker price list: $500 for black company email, $1200 for fake passport
It is reported that the activities of reselling various online identities, access to enterprise e-mail inboxes and fake ID cards are increasingly rampant.
The research results of Dell SecureWorks show that the underground hacker market is growing, especially in Russia. Russian hackers are willing to work overtime and use guarantors to ensure customer satisfaction. There are also ways to steal. Hackers also value their reputation because they want to do business with repeat customers.
Dell SecureWorks reports the latest price list of hacker goods and services: transaction price of bank login data: 1% to 5% of account balance; American Express cards can earn 30 dollars, which is relatively high among all kinds of cards. The starting price of such cards is 7 dollars, and the price will increase according to the types of cards and the relevant information and data required; The minimum charge for DDoS (denial of service distribution) attacks is only $5 per hour, which is also the price of remote trojans; The authorization of the phishing attack toolkit (a common hacker tool, used to implant malicious intrusion software from captured websites or hacker controlled websites) starts at $100; The fraudsters are also expanding their product range, among which the price of ATMs is $400 or less; The cost of invading corporate mailboxes is $500 per mailbox, while the cost of invading Gmail and Hotmail accounts is only a quarter ($123); The forged real French driver's license costs 238 dollars, while the forged American, Israeli, British and international driver's license costs only 173 dollars; European passports are also available, starting at $1200, much more expensive than in 2014, when they only cost $500 or less; It is understood that the price of identity documents is rising, while the price of other items has dropped a lot, especially the cost of malware.
Other services can also be purchased with money, including hacker tutorials, airline credits and complete personal information files (name, address, date of birth, etc.). Personal information files can be used for identity theft or other hidden purposes.
Dell SecureWorks concluded that "the underground hacker market is rampant and growing, becoming more complex and more aggressive."
Dell SecureWorks said, "People should know who they and their departments are facing, where their information is going, and the value of this information. Only in this way can we effectively prioritize what needs to be protected."
