Michigan's Chief Information Security Officer on Virus Security
19 Mar 2007
Dan Lorhmann,Michigan's Chief Information Security Officer, speaks well of an article written by F-PROT's Michael St. Neitzel called "Welcome to 2007: the year of professional organized malware development."
Dan says:
One of the best pieces on this topic was sent to me by Joel Weever. Written by Michael St. Neitzel, the article is entitled: "Welcome to 2007: the year of professional organized malware development."
His central theme is that: “Malware writers have noticed that they can gain large amounts of money from distributing malware.” He also discusses how playing defense is getting harder and harder – and he recommends going on the offense against these guys.
