Sophos's Graham Cluley will be presenting research at the IET
conference
Sophos, a world leader in protecting businesses against computer
threats, today announced that Graham Cluley, senior
technology consultant and head of corporate communications, will be
presenting at the Institute of Engineering and Technology (IET)
Crime and Security conference in London on Wednesday 14 June.
Cluley will be presenting a paper examining the latest trends in
malware, and the threats posed by hackers in their attempt to
attack businesses, blackmail websites, and steal confidential
information. The paper includes research from SophosLabs™, Sophos's global
network of virus, spyware and spam analysis centers, identifying
the top malware threats of the year.
"Organized cybercriminals are developing new methods to spread
their malware, with the intention of stealing from innocent
computer users," said Cluley. "Every IT manager needs to ensure
they are up-to-speed on the latest developments in the malware
world to reduce the risk of their company being the next
victim."
Cluley has been working in the field of computer virus research
since January 1992, and is a respected industry expert.
