A the Hacker
A The Hacker Madame Curie once said “En science, nous devons nous int´eresser aux choses, non aux personnes [In science, we should be interested in things, not in people].” Things, however, have since changed, and today we have to be interested not just in the facts of computer security and crime, but in the people who perpetrate these acts. Hence this discussion of hackers. Over the centuries, the term “hacker” has referred to various activities. We are familiar with usages such as “a carpenter hacking wood with an ax” and “a butcher hacking meat with a cleaver,” but it seems that the modern, computer-related form of this term originated in the many pranks and practi- cal jokes perpetrated by students at MIT in the 1960s. As an example of the many meanings assigned to this term, see [Schneier 04] which, among much other information, explains why Galileo was a hacker but Aristotle wasn’t. A hack is a person lacking talent or ability, as in a “hack writer.” Hack as a verb is used in contexts such as “hack the media,” “hack your brain,” and “hack your reputation.” Recently, it has also come to mean either a kludge, or the opposite of a kludge, as in a clever or elegant solution to a difficult problem. A hack also means a simple but often inelegant solution or technique. The following tentative definitions are quoted from the jargon file ([jargon 04], edited by Eric S. Raymond): 1. A person who enjoys exploring the details of programmable systems and how to stretch their capabilities, as opposed to most users, who prefer to learn only the minimum necessary. -

The Copyright Crusade
The Copyright Crusade Abstract During the winter and spring of 2001, the author, chief technology officer in Viant's media and entertainment practice, led an extensive inqUiry to assess the potential impact of extant Internet file-sharing capabilities on the business models of copyright owners and holders. During the course of this project he and his associates explored the tensions that exist or may soon exist among peer-to-peer start-ups, "pirates" and "hackers," intellectual property companies, established media channels, and unwitting consumers caught in the middle. This research report gives the context for the battleground that has emerged, and calls upon the players to consider new, productive solutions and business models that support profitable, legal access to intellectual property via digital media. by Andrew C Frank. eTO [email protected] Viant Media and Entertainment Reinhold Bel/tIer [email protected] Aaron Markham [email protected] assisted by Bmre Forest ~ VI ANT 1 Call to Arms Well before the Internet. it was known that PCs connected to two-way public networks posed a problem for copyright holders. The problem first came to light when the Software Publishers Association (now the Software & Information Industry Association), with the backing of Microsoft and others, took on computer Bulletin Board System (BBS) operators in the late 1980s for facilitating trade in copyrighted computer software, making examples of "sysops" (as system operators were then known) by assisting the FBI in orchestrat ing raids on their homes. and taking similar legal action against institutional piracy in high profile U.S. businesses and universities.' At the same time. -

Computer Viruses and Malware Advances in Information Security
Computer Viruses and Malware Advances in Information Security Sushil Jajodia Consulting Editor Center for Secure Information Systems George Mason University Fairfax, VA 22030-4444 email: [email protected] The goals of the Springer International Series on ADVANCES IN INFORMATION SECURITY are, one, to establish the state of the art of, and set the course for future research in information security and, two, to serve as a central reference source for advanced and timely topics in information security research and development. The scope of this series includes all aspects of computer and network security and related areas such as fault tolerance and software assurance. ADVANCES IN INFORMATION SECURITY aims to publish thorough and cohesive overviews of specific topics in information security, as well as works that are larger in scope or that contain more detailed background information than can be accommodated in shorter survey articles. The series also serves as a forum for topics that may not have reached a level of maturity to warrant a comprehensive textbook treatment. Researchers, as well as developers, are encouraged to contact Professor Sushil Jajodia with ideas for books under this series.

Botnets, Zombies, and Irc Security
Botnets 1 BOTNETS, ZOMBIES, AND IRC SECURITY Investigating Botnets, Zombies, and IRC Security Seth Thigpen East Carolina University Botnets 2 Abstract The Internet has many aspects that make it ideal for communication and commerce. It makes selling products and services possible without the need for the consumer to set foot outside his door. It allows people from opposite ends of the earth to collaborate on research, product development, and casual conversation. Internet relay chat (IRC) has made it possible for ordinary people to meet and exchange ideas. It also, however, continues to aid in the spread of malicious activity through botnets, zombies, and Trojans. Hackers have used IRC to engage in identity theft, sending spam, and controlling compromised computers. Through the use of carefully engineered scripts and programs, hackers can use IRC as a centralized location to launch DDoS attacks and infect computers with robots to effectively take advantage of unsuspecting targets. Hackers are using zombie armies for their personal gain. One can even purchase these armies via the Internet black market. Thwarting these attacks and promoting security awareness begins with understanding exactly what botnets and zombies are and how to tighten security in IRC clients. Botnets 3 Investigating Botnets, Zombies, and IRC Security Introduction The Internet has become a vast, complex conduit of information exchange. Many different tools exist that enable Internet users to communicate effectively and efficiently. Some of these tools have been developed in such a way that allows hackers with malicious intent to take advantage of other Internet users. Hackers have continued to create tools to aid them in their endeavors. -
