Detlef Eckert Chief Security Advisor Microsoft Europe, Middle East, Africa The Challenge of Information Security Agenda The Evolution of Threats Security against attacks Security of the platform Secure solutions Security enabled by the platform Management of Security Some Takeaways The Bright Side: New Era of Computing IT Technology: Huge Asset of Human Connections and the Global Economy The Dark Side: Cyber Crime The Internet has quickly become a good place to commit crime (anonymity, global connectivity, lack of traceability) Cybercrime is increasing with new forms of attacks (e.g. Phishing, Botnets) and increasingly the target is the application (this is where the money is) Computer literacy is both rising (for sophisticated attacks) and less important (hacker tools permit unskilled attacks) Industry has a responsibility to improve security. Law Enforcement is critical to deterrence and prosecution.
