Evolution of network attacks
"The developments of 2006 have highlighted two major trends in the evolution of attacks carried out via the Internet.
The first trend is the apparition of the now constant “background noise”, which is caused by the Slammer worm and the bot armies which exploit relatively old vulnerabilities. [...]
The second trend is probably far more significant in terms of the evolution of the Internet"
From my recent article: "Kaspersky Security Bulletin 2006: Internet Attacks"
