Malware: Serious Business (Dark Reading)
Criminal justice professor Thomas Holt presented the findings from his
study of malware markets at Defcon 2007. Dark Reading provides coverage of
the talk. "The average hackers' forum works much like a combination of eBay and
a department store site, Holt reports. Many are divided into areas of
interest -- such as programming, scripting, Mac, or Linux -- and there
usually is some sort of buying area where shoppers can purchase tools or
exploits, such as bots or credit card data collectors."
