The Last List of 2009 - Predicting Security in 2010
Summary: A Cisco Talos (Sourcefire VRT) author published five 2010 security predictions, citing cloud outages at Twitter, T-Mobile SideKick, EC2 and Gmail, and EC2 and Twitter already used as command-and-control. The predictions include a compromise of a prominent cloud provider, more Apple vulnerabilities and malware as its market share grows, mobile threats, attacks on prolific desktop software such as Adobe, and critical infrastructure security spinning out of control politically.
Key Takeaway: The author's stated basis for the cloud prediction is that EC2 and Twitter were already being used as command-and-control, and he expects a prominent cloud provider compromise that releases data at a volume never seen before.
