  • ‘North Korea’ a hot subject among VB2018 talks

    A few years ago, I somehow got involved in the discussion of a run-of-the-mill malicious spam campaign and ended up speaking to a journalist from the Daily Telegraph . “Is it true that North Korea may be behind this campaign?”, the journalist asked me – I had a hard time trying to keep a straight…

  • RSA 2018: the good, the bad, the ugly, the great and the fantastic

    Two weeks ago, I was one of the more than 50,000 people who attended the RSA expo in San Francisco. I deliberately say ‘expo’, for while I spoke at the event two years ago, this year I didn’t have the time to attend any of the talks – which certainly wasn’t for a lack of…

  • Virus Bulletin at RSA

    Next week, I will be joining the international security community to attend the RSA Conference in San Francisco. Though it lacks the intimate atmosphere of so many smaller security conferences, there is probably no better place than RSA to meet so many security experts and discuss the things they’re working on.
