Computer Threats Predictions for 2007

Computer Threats Predictions for 2007


Messagelabs runs an annual trend report that highlights the evolution of the threat landscape each year. They are probably the best to make predictions because they're on the leading edge of spam and computer threat science. And, of course, the complexity of attacks on your computer are predicted to continue in 2007


Messagelabs Predictions for 2007:

  

* Threats converge further over the course of 2007 Ð as email security becomes tighter, the criminals will send more malicious emails with URL links that can slip under the security radar and wreak havoc on businesses. 

* Virus rates will continue to fall, as they have become unnecessary in the creation of botnets.

* Ransomware, malicious software that will encrypt key files and documents using a secret key known only to the extortionist, will become increasingly threatening

* Spam will become more targeted throughout 2007. 

* ICANN will continue to be exploited through loopholes, and domain kiting will continue to be a problem. 

* Botnets will be engineered to be resilient, allowing the criminals to maintain control of zombie computers more easily

* Off-the-shelf crime kits for less tech-savvy spammers will grow in numbers, 

* VoIP threats emerge as criminals target
