Description: The table has recently been turned on hackers. C&C servers have been exposed and players in the hacker industry have been arrested. This is only the tip of the iceberg as security practitioners—and law enforcement--have understood the need for a security approach that puts the heat on the hacking industry. This development has given much insight into hacker activity including technical innovations and shifts in business models. Most importantly, studying the hacker world helps security teams apply and tune defenses. This talk will answer: What are the methods deployed by the security community used to tap into hacker activity? What attack campaigns have been unearthed? What are the technologies hackers are using, and what are the hackers' business models? What can security teams gain from this research in order to apply the necessary security controls?
