Vodafone may up Airtel stake to 20 per cent

UK-based Vodafone Group plc, the largest mobile services provider in the world, is considering increasing its equity stake in Bharti Airtel to 20% as part of its plans to double revenues from emerging markets over the next three years.

Sources said the hike could be sewn up “in 2-3 months�.

In an email statement from the UK, a Vodafone spokesman confirmed the intent: “We are interested in increasing our stake in Bharti Airtel. However, any increase is dependent on other shareholdings being available for purchase. Such shareholdings are not currently available.�

That’s partly because Bharti Airtel has already hit the 74% ceiling for foreign investment as a result of a change in the way such shareholding is accounted for.

Vista hacked at Black Hat

While Microsoft talked up Windows Vista security at Black Hat, a researcher in another room demonstrated how to hack the operating system.

Joanna Rutkowska, a Polish researcher at Singapore-based Coseinc, showed that it is possible to bypass security measures in Vista that should prevent unsigned code from running.

And in a second part of her talk, Rutkowska explained how it is possible to use virtualization technology to make malicious code undetectable, in the same way a rootkit does. She code-named this malicious software Blue Pill.

“Microsoft is investigating solutions for the final release of Windows Vista to help protect against the attacks demonstrated,” a representative for the software maker said. “In addition, we are working with our hardware partners to investigate ways to help prevent the virtualization attack used by the Blue Pill.”
