The Blackhat/Defcon Experience: A Valuable Lesson in Security
by Michael Montecillo, Principal Analyst
For those of you not familiar with Blackhat USA or the Defcon Hacking Conference, I will merely describe them as premiere annual security conferences.

Today, the malicious hacker community is now much less focused on vanity and more focused on profit. As a result, the attacks against businesses have become more covert, more sophisticated, and far more lethal. It is for these reasons that the lessons learned at Blackhat and Defcon have become all the more important.
