The market is highly regulated by the Office of Electronic 18 Communications – UKE, which realizes its strategy of market competition development in 16 line with European Commission guidelines described in Digital Agenda and National 14 Development Strategy 2020. UKE regulates the market by the way of Mobile and Fixed 12 Termination Rate level control, frequency license tender offers announcements, regulated 10 access restrictions and penalties imposition based on the SOR16 regulations. Due to 8 approximate decrease of 2.4% YoY, the total value of telecommunication industry in 6 4 5 Poland amounted to PLN 41.7bn in 2012. Market decrease has been mainly driven by 4 13.5% YoY decline of fixed-line telephony segment. In 2012, first time since the beginning 2 of market operations in Poland, mobile telephony segment decreased on a yearly basis, 0 by 1% in terms of revenues. Internet Mobile Fixed-line telephony telephony Fixed-line telephony market value amounted to PLN 4.5bn in 2012 and its performance is Source: UKE strongly correlated with the mobile telephony sector due to worldwide observed fixed-to- Figure no. 6 mobile substitution effect. We forecast further market shrinking at pace of -5% a year. Revenues on fixed-line broadband segment [m] Segment is dominated by Orange with revenues of over 60% of market value, and Netia, the largest alternative operator, 20.4%. Main features of the segment are constantly Multimedia Polska diminishing number of subscribers, 1.8m over last 4 years, (-5.3% YoY), to the level of 7.4m, along with successively declining ARPU by PLN 14.1 over last 4 years to the level of Vectra PLN 51.1 per month. Due to stronger competitiveness, the ARPU of Netia has been gradually declining. ARPU declined by PLN 5 to PLN 45 on regulated access network and UPC Polska by PLN 21 to PLN 43 over own network, since 2009. 19.5% of all fixed-line telephony subscribers (1.4m) were provided the service over WLR, 54.8% of which was offered by Netia Netia. The cost of WLR, determined by the telecom regulator UKE, is set at the level of PLN 20 monthly per subscriber, unchanged since 2007. Main determinant of service PTK Centertel provider choice is price. Operators tend to combat churn rates by combining fixed-line telephony, broadband and Pay TV into bundle services. Orange Internet services sector is growing steadily in terms of popularity and availability. As a pozostaliOthers result, at the end of 2012, the penetration of broadband services reached the level of 83.5% for households and 29.3 per 100 inhabitants. The number of subscribers has grown 0 400 800 1200 to 11m, 7.4% in terms of CAGR in 2010-2012. Market value of broadband services 2012 2011 amounted to PLN 4.4bn, 10.7% increase compared to 2011. Despite increasing total Source: UKE income, ARPU was successively declining, due to price cuts caused by fierce competition. The fixed-line broadband is steadily growing and according to our forecast it will Figure no. 7 continue to increase 1.5% YoY in terms of CAGR, and is foreseen to reach 7.8m until Broadband penetration in Poland, Dec 2012 2018. PLN 3.4bn (76.7%) revenues was generated by fixed-line connections, of which 120% 17.6% was covered by Netia.

    Comodo Threat Intelligence Lab SPECIAL REPORT: AUGUST 2017 – IKARUSdilapidated Locky Part II: 2nd Wave of Ransomware Attacks Uses Your Scanner/Printer, Post Office Billing Inquiry THREAT RESEARCH LABS Locky Ransomware August 2017 Special Report Part II A second wave of new but related IKARUSdilapidated Locky ransomware attacks has occurred, building on the attacks discovered by the Comodo Threat Intelligence Lab (part of Comodo Threat Research Labs) earlier in the month of August 2017. This late August campaign also uses a botnet of “zombie computers” to coordinate a phishing attack which sends emails appearing to be from your organization’s scanner/printer (or other legitimate source) and ultimately encrypts the victims’ computers and demands a bitcoin ransom. SPECIAL REPORT 2 THREAT RESEARCH LABS The larger of the two attacks in this wave presents as a scanned image emailed to you from your organization’s scanner/printer. As many employees today scan original documents at the company scanner/printer and email them to themselves and others, this malware-laden email will look very innocent. The sophistication here includes even matching the scanner/printer model number to make it look more common as the Sharp MX2600N is one of the most popular models of business scanner/printers in the market. This second wave August 2017 phishing campaign carrying IKARUSdilapidated Locky ransomware is, in fact, two different campaigns launched 3 days apart. The first (featuring the subject “Scanned image from MX-2600N”) was discovered by the Lab to have commenced primarily over 17 hours on August 18th and the second (a French language email purportedly from the French post office featuring a subject including “FACTURE”) was executed over a 15-hour period on August 21st, 2017.

(“Vuze”), the undersigned e-mailed the attached material to Aaron Goldberger and Ian Dillner, both legal advisors to Chairman Kevin J. Martin. The material reflects the results of a recent study conducted by Vuze, in which Vuze created and made available to its users a software plug-in that measures the rate at which network communications are being interrupted by reset messages. The Vuze plug-in measures all network interruptions, and cannot differentiate between reset activity occurring in the ordinary course and reset activity that is artificially interposed by a network operator. While Vuze, therefore, has drawn no firm conclusions from its network monitoring study, it believes the results are significant enough to raise them with network operators and commence a dialog regarding their network management practices. Accordingly, Vuze has sent the attached letters to four of the network operators whose rate of reset activity appeared to be higher than that of many others.
