Kabay, PhD, CISSP WELCOME Welcome to the 2005 edition of the Information Security Year in Review (IYIR) project. In 1993 and 1994, I was an adjunct professor in the Institute for Government Informatics Professionals in Ottawa, Canada under the aegis of the University of Ottawa. I taught a one-semester course introducting information security to government personnel and enjoyed the experience immensely. Many of the chapters of my 1996 textbook, _The NCSA Guide to Enterprise Security_ published by McGraw-Hill were field-tested by my students. In 1995, I was asked if I could run a seminar for graduates of my courses to bring them up to date on developments across the entire field of information security. Our course had twenty students and I so enjoyed it that I continued to develop the material and teach the course with the NCSA (National Computer Security Association; later called ICSA and then eventually renamed TruSecure Corporation and finally CyberTrust, its current name) all over the United States, Canada, Europe, Asia and the Caribbean. After a few years of working on this project, it became obvious that saving abstracts in a WordPerfect file was not going to cut it as an orderly method for organizing the increasing mass of information that I was encountering in my research. -
2001-2013: Survey and Analysis of Major Cyberattacks Arxiv
2001-2013: Survey and Analysis of Major Cyberattacks Tavish Vaidya Georgetown University Abstract Widespread and extensive use of computers and their interconnections in almost all sectors like communications, finance, transportation, military, governance, education, energy etc., they have become attractive targets for adversaries to spy, disrupt or steal information by presses of keystrokes from any part of the world. This paper presents a survey of major cyberattacks from 2001 to 2013 and analyzes these attacks to understand the motivation, targets and technique(s) employed by the attackers. Observed trends in cyberattacks have also been discussed in the paper. 1 Introduction Cyberattacks are computer-to-computer attacks undermining the confidentiality, integrity, and/or availability of computers and/or the information they hold[1]. Computer networks have no geo- graphical borders that need to be crossed for an attacker to steal information. This grants freedom to any attacker to pick his target anywhere in the world and carry out a cyberattack. Therefore, se- curing computer systems is as important as securing physical entities from being attacked. In terms arXiv:1507.06673v2 [cs.CY] 1 Sep 2015 of money, Ponemon Institute[2] estimated the average cost of cyberattacks to be $11.6 million per organization for 2013, which was 26 percent more than 2012. Cyberattacks have not only caused losses in billions of dollars[3], but also had psychological impact on human psyche. As an example, in August 2004, fear of cyberattacks during Olympic games in Greece kept people from attending the Olympic events[4]. With Internet of Things1 al- ready here, securing computer networks and end devices becomes a paramount concern to prevent cyberattacks from disrupting and hijacking them for malicious purposes. -
