Date Created October 04, 2010
Description Vinton Cerf, VP and Chief Internet Evangelist, Google; one of the “fathers of the Internet” Paul Mockapetris, Chief Scientist and Chairman of the Board, Nominum; Creator, Domain Name System (DNS) Esther Dyson, Chairman, EDventure Holdings & Angel Investor - Moderator Viruses, spyware, spam, phishing, zombie machines. Several years ago, we might have thought of these as just a nuisance, and their perpetrators as mostly underemployed kids. Today, cybercrime is worth billions of dollars to loosely organized networks of criminals that prey on individuals, businesses and governments with malicious or profit-seeking intent. What are some of the current threats, and how is industry responding to them? What new threats might we expect in the coming years? Is the Internet's health partly a result of misaligned incentives, where those who cause the damage don't bear its costs? How can we change that? What more should industry, government and individuals be doing to protect the network and, ultimately, ourselves? Location: Quadrus Conference Center, 2400 Sandhill Rd., Menlo Park
