A Site to See

By Peter Piazza

Worms, rootkits, Trojans. These attacks, along with the rest of their malware friends, represent tremendous risks to any network connected to the Internet. And as with any type of security threat, ignorance isn't an option. The good news is that the Internet Storm Center is out there keeping an eye on these threats in real time. Their graphs show what malware is hitting the 'net the hardest and which ports are being targeted each day, and the daily "Handler's Diary" describes what threats IT security pros from SANS are watching and remediating. The SANS Internet Storm Center is this month's Site to See. Get there via SM Online.
