They also referred to the boom in social networks, which offer hackers a good reason to try new tricks to threaten web security. In the first three months of 2010, more than 300 websites with the domain name “.vn” in Vietnam were attacked by foreign hackers and some 150,000 PCs were infected with viruses and Trojans - spyware used to steal private information from individuals.
