:''Malware is a broad category of ‘malicious’ software that covers trojans, viruses, worms, rootkits, and other software that steals information or subverts computers into unintended purposes. There are many reasons why one would want to analyze malware, and they can range from professional interest in defending networks from them, to personal fascination in the techniques involved in crafting them.''

:''Many might think that the techniques are dominated by methods such as reverse engineering and binary analysis, and indeed it is a major part of any analyst’s toolkit.

"The city of Miami and several commercial partners plan to rollout a "smart grid" citywide electrical infrastructure by the year 2011. This rollout proceeds on the heels of news that foreign agents have infiltrated our existing electrical infrastructure and that recent penetration tests have uncovered numerous vulnerabilities in the proposed technologies. Simultaneously, the National Institute for Standards in Technology (NIST) has recently released a roadmap for producing Smart Grid standards. In this presentation, Tony will discuss the flaws with the current guidelines and map them to the criticisms of similar regulatory mandates, including the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), that rely heavily on organizations policing themselves."
