Corporate and federal networks are under attack by increasingly sophisticated attackers employing information warfare tactics. Gone are the days of simple port scans or IIS worms. The target is no longer the network but its users and information. The goal has changed from destruction to passive control. These targeted attacks and their methods will become commonplace in the next five years. Currently, and for the near future, only advanced, threat aware, incident response teams are capable of prevention, discovery, and recovery from such attacks. We will discuss the application of information warfare techniques as they relate to attack design, defense and recovery.
