Not too long ago, the quarrels of mankind were confined to the physical world. When words weren't enough to settle disputes, contraptions such as the chariot, the bow, the gun, and the missile were employed. Now that our lives spill into the virtual world of the Internet, malware has become both the venue for illegitimate activities and the weapon for supporting illicit business models. Modern malware is written to bypass perimeter defenses, evade detection, and resist our efforts to disable it.

In this webcast, Lenny Zeltser surveys the characteristics of today's malware, exemplified by recently-seen bots, downloaders, keyloggers, and malicious scripts. He discusses samples that employed self-defense, social engineering, fast-flux DNS, man-in-the-middle attacks, extortion demands, and so on. Tune in to better understand what we're up against. This talk will expand your perspective of the modern malware landscape, empowering you to adjust your defenses

Learn how to calculate the costs of your current compliance efforts and learn how you can not only reduce those costs but also establish repeatable practices for a more consistent, auditable, reliable and easier to manage certification effort.
