| Description |
The nature of the present day attacks is very different from what the security community has been used to in the past. Rather than wide-spread worms and viruses that cause general havoc, attackers are directly targeting their victims in order to achieve monetary or military gain. These attacks are blowing right past firewalls and anti-virus and placing malware deep in the enterprise. Ideally, we could fix this problem at its roots; fixing the software that is making us vulnerable.
The Conference, organised by AII and Couzyn Hertzog & Horak, will examine the impact of Cyber crime in Africa by expert researchers and leaders in the IT Industry.
