INTERNATIONAL CYBERCRIME NEEDS INTERNATIONAL RESPONSE

摘要

Eugene kaspersky, the anti-virus entrepreneur, did not mince his words at a recent conference. He warned that the new Flame Virus aimed at the Middle East was 20 times larger and more complex than the Stuxnet worm discovered in 2010 targeted at disrupting Iran's nuclear facilities. Another example: two years ago cyber-thieves stole €30m worth of carbon allowances from the European carbon trading exchange, forcing trading to cease for several days.
