Netcraft Defence Against the Dark Arts
Netcraft Defence Against the Dark Arts
Wednesday 26th October, 17:30
St Catz
Phishing, hacking and Internet based fraud are growing very quickly, not only in absolute numbers, but also in diversity and complexity. We review contemporary Internet bank robbing, illustrating the scale of the activity, the technological arms race between attackers and defenders, some recent innovations, and mistakes from each side.
Internet Services Company Netcraft will be talking about the above as well as what it is like to work for them. They will be providing a buffet afterwards and an opportunity to talk to some of their staff.
The plan is to meet at St Catz lodge at 17.15 for a 17.30 start in the JCR Lecture theatre.
