The July discussion started by exploring the concept of battling botnets with botnets. The genesis of the conversation was the paper, “Phalanx: Withstanding Multimillion-node Botnet,” written by Colin Dixon, Arvind Krishnamurthy and Tom Anderson. This came around the time buzz was being generated around the entire concept of battling botnets with botnets, and we decided to explore it with an open discussion that included ethics and unintended consequences.

As it turns out – the discussion was that, and more. Much more. This discussion brought forth the value of the Security Roundtable – since we left with more questions than when we started. This is good! When listening to the discussion, perhaps it will stimulate even more questions!

 

Thanks to the panel:

 

The discussion ran a bit longer than we alloted, yet even on our review listen proved worth every minute. We raised some interesting questions and look forward to sharing the conversation with you. This is only the beginning and we invite you to share your ideas, insights and feedback in the Security Catalyst Community.
