| Apple cleaning up iOS App Store after first major attack |
|
 By Jim Finkle BOSTON (Reuters) - Apple Inc said on Sunday it is cleaning up its iOS App Store to remove malicious iPhone and iPad programs identified in the first large-scale attack on the popular mobile software outlet. It is the first reported case of large numbers of malicious software programs making their way past Apple's stringent app review process. Prior to this attack, only five malicious apps had ever been found in the App Store, according to cyber security firm Palo Alto Networks Inc. The hackers embedded the malicious code in these apps by convincing developers of legitimate software to use a tainted, counterfeit version of Apple's software for creating iOS and Mac apps, which is known as Xcode, Apple said.

| Greek media: Daunting task ahead for Tsipras after storming victory |
|
 Greek Prime Minister-elect Alexis Tsipras has reaffirmed his dominance on the political landscape, but now faces the daunting task of building consensus in a fractious society traumatised by years of austerity, local media said on Monday. On the morning after Tsipras stormed to victory in snap parliamentary elections, Monday editions of Greek newspapers said Tsipras was given a 'second chance' to see through reforms and take ownership of a multi-billion euro bailout with lenders. Bagging 35.5 percent of the vote, Syriza, which was catapulted to prominence in the aftermath of Greece's crippling economic crisis post-2010, has proven it is not a passing fancy of Greeks in a knee-jerk reaction to years of hardship, they said.

Support for Abe's cabinet dropped six percentage points from last month to 40 percent, with its disapproval rate climbing seven points to 47 percent, according to an opinion poll by the Nikkei business daily.
