New Blog - The Prevalence Of Threats: How Popular Is The Malware That Infected Your System?

[Zulfikar]

Hi All,

 

I just posted a new entry to the Immunet blog that examines the prevalence of individual threats. The most intriguing results are that:

• 
   
  
• More than half of the individual threats we see are on exactly one machine
  
• Less than 1% of the distinct threats we see are on two dozen or more machines.
   
  

This topic is one that I've thought about for quite a while and the data is definitely consistent with how I've seen the threat landscape evolve.

 

You can find the blog post at:

Best,

Zulfikar

It's deleted now, or most of it. The spam controls on the board we use obviously suck.
