Paul Ducklin, head of global support for anti-virus vendor Sophos, said in the run-up to the last World Cup in 1998, a Word 97 macro virus was spread that asked people to guess which team would win the World Cup. If they guessed wrong, based on a random selection chosen by the program, malicious code was triggered that had the potential to format the hard drive.
Similarly, during the last World Cup a local organisation was compromised by the Chernobyl virus, which got in on the back of a game where you kick a ball at a goal.
-People tend to let their guard down when something internationally exciting is going on," Ducklin said, adding that this can lead to a resurgence in old viruses. -The more international the flavour of the event the more there'll be people who want to share things with their buddies."
-We advise people not to look for excuses to avoid best practice," Ducklin said. -Being a two percent kill-joy may increase your protection 98 percent."
