About this talk

2015 was yet another record setting year in the world of Internet security. More malware, malicious apps, websites, IP’s and phishing sites were discovered than in any previous year. At the same time, attacks on businesses and individuals continue to increase at an alarming rate. This presentation will look at data from Webroot’s 2016 Threat Brief and examine threat trends and draw comparisons to data from Webroot’s 2015 Threat Brief. Most notable is the near complete utilization of polymorphic distribution models for malware whereby over 97% of infections today are intentionally unique for each infected system. Attend to learn about the impacts of this strategy as well as many other aspects of the constantly evolving threat landscape.
