Motivation:
Botnets are networks of compromised, remotely controlled computer systems. Their main purposes include the distribution of spam e-mails, coordination of distributed denial of service attacks, and the automated theft of identities, e.g. credit card information and general banking data for financial fraud. They pose a big threat to the Internet and all entities connected to it. To effectively fight botnets, it is essential to counter them on technical, legal and policy level. Thus, this workshop aims at bringing together experts from different areas (legal, policy, technical) and stakeholder groups to discuss how to effectively counter botnets.
Target Audience:
Experts in fighting botnets on legal, policy or technical level. Especially invited are decision makers, legals dealing with cybercrime and representatives of security departments from the stakeholder groups Regulators/Law Enforcement, Research, ISPs and End Users/Companies.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
