Homework for today is to read the following:
- How Zombie Networks Fuel Cybercrime (2004)
- The Untold Story of NotPetya, the Most Devastating Cyberattack in History (2018 - long but worthwhile) (This one has a really bad word, repeated three times. I wish people wouldn't do that, because outside of that it tells an important story really well.) If wired.com says that you have read all your articles for this month, try again with your browser in incognito mode, or try a different browser.
- Someone Is Learning How to Take Down the Internet (2016) . (try this link if the other isn't working. . . )
- DDOS attack that disrupted internet was largest of its kind in history, experts say (2016) (Pay attention -- what business is Dyn in?)
- (optional) Here is a fascinating description of the Stuxnet worm: What is the most sophisticated piece of software code ever written?
Videos:
- Stuxnet: Computer worm opens new era of warfare (2012) (14:54)
- Ukraine blames cyberattack for Christmas power outage (2016) (5:48)
