Roland Dobbins, Arbor Networks, Singapore

In this presentation, we will discuss key findings of the 2011 Worldwide Infrastructure Security Report (WISR), the only ISP-focused security survey and report in the industry, to be published in early February 2012. Particular attention will be paid to global trends in distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks and defensive measures, as well as security findings focusing on IPv6, mobile/fixed wireless networks, Internet Data Center (IDC) operations, and the implications of recent shifts in perceived attacker motivations. The WISR is viewed as an industry bellweather in terms of operational security; APRICOT 2012 will be the first public venue in which the 2011 WISR findings are presented to and discussed by the global operational community.

This presentation will look at the current state of malicious activity and compromises in the Asia Pacific Region. Information will be presented using visualisations and graphs to give a clear comparative view of what is happening in the region and where this is occurring. To provide insight into how this activity is leveraged and facilitated, an overview of the Underground Economy and its operation will also be covered. Finally, as we progress into 2012, some predictions and thoughts about what to expect from the cybercriminal world, will be discussed.
