Computer System Security: Is There Really a Threat?
Abstract:
I'm often asked, "If we're so vulnerable, how come I don't hear about incidents that often?" While I cannot answer that question, I can try to answer the question of whether or not there is a threat. In this talk, I will look at some historic and some more recent computer security incidents. How did the attacks occur? Why did they succeed? What were the consequences? Could it have been worse? We will look at security issues in existing systems and assess the level of danger. Finally, I'll discuss what the best defenses are, and the steps we can each take to secure our systems and data.
