Facebook, partners unveil alliance on cybersecurity

Facebook, Yahoo and other technology firms announced the creation of a "ThreatExchange" to share information to help thwart cyberattacks. "ThreatExchange is built on the existing Facebook platform infrastructure... so that partner companies can query the available threat information and also publish to all or a subset of participating organizations," the social network said in a statement. "We have a vested interest in making the Internet safer and giving people better ways to connect and share," Facebook said.
