A GOVERNMENT information security watchdog has issued a warning for people to take precautions against a fast-mutating malicious computer program, which is poised to strike tomorrow.
In a bulletin sent out yesterday, the Singapore Computer Emergency Response Team (SingCert) warned that the latest variant of the Conficker worm, known as Conficker.C, may 'become active on April 1'.
SingCert, a unit of technology sector regulator Infocomm Development Authority, identifies information security threats and coordinates computer security responses to events like hacking attacks.
