- Aug 14 - Detailed analysis of application security tools
- Holger Peine of the Fraunhofer Institute compares a number of free tools (WebScarab, Paros, Burp Suite, Spike Proxy), and commercial tools (AppScan, WebInspect, Acunetix). The methodology is quite detailed and uses OWASP's WebGoat and a 'normal' web application.
- Aug 14 - When Phishing Evolves to Pharming
- "Phishing is evolving into a new type of attack called pharming.
