| Abstract |
The talk demonstrates, based on Cisco devices, that DDoS attacks, spam and viruses are not only coming from the "normal suspects" (PC, server and mobile devices). There are other devices, like routers or switches, which can do the same. All these devices are becoming more and more "intelligent" and have "features", which will make it possible to realize all kinds of attacks. Because of broad distribution of all these feature packed devices to the customer, these devices have a greater potential for misuse and will in the future become more in focus of hackers.
