The Botnet Challenge

CDT's Leslie Harris has a guest blog post on Comcast's blog, discussing botnets and how large of a threat they are to Internet security today. Harris points out the efforts that companies like Comcast have put forth to protect their customers from botnets. While Comcast has made great strides, the war against malicious software is far from over and CDT is continuing to work with companies like Comcast to figure out the best practices to use in identifying botnets and communicating with customers about compromised computers.
