7 Global Patterns and Trends is now considered a business-critical application (Gartner Sept 2003) is also considered a legal document and industry is required to treat it as such June 2004: 1 in 10.8 (9.3%) s contained viruses; equivalent to 37.6 virus borne s every second June 2004: Spam accounted for 85.3% of traffic; equivalent to spam messages per second US >80%, UK 50-60%, Germany 40%, Australia 30%, Netherlands 30%, Hong Kong 25%
8 Convergence Recent viruses contain Remote Access Trojan (RAT) component Fizzer, Sobig, MyDoom, Sober Spyware: leaking information to spammers Case study: Sobig.F Sobig.F was the fastest spreading worm in the past 4 years It generated over 200 million infected messages during its first week of activity Staged deployment of WinGate Proxy software Currently 70% of spam intercepted by MessageLabs is sent via open proxies Spammers will portscan for open proxies Some Ratware comes with pre-set lists or daily updated lists This leads to 50,000 new zombies appearing each week Traded online as potential open proxies for the spammers or as hosts for everything from paedophile images, DDoS attacks (distributed denial of service) to Phishing scams Some estimates suggest that15% to 25% of the Internet may be controlled by spammers or criminal gangs
9 The Bot-net Phenomenon Around 70% of all spam is sent via an open proxy 75% of which originated from virus infected domains EML/Worm.SM TrojanDropper.JS.Mimail.b JS/Fortnight.A-m Heuristic IP in blacklist Sender in blackhole Sender in blacklist EML/Worm.VW W32/Ganda.A-mm W32/Lovgate.f-m W32/Sobig.D-mm Troj/CasinoSpam W32/BugBear.A-mm W32/Heloc-mm W32/Sobig.A-mm W32/CIH.1003.A EML/WinCritUpd Troj/JS-Seeker.T W32/Klez.H-mm Troj/Backdoor.AVF W32/Sobig.C-mm W32/Sobig.E-mm W32/BugBear.B-mm W32/Fizzer.A-mm Early example of trojan with spam connections 0 100, , , , , , ,000 Mail/Virus Volume Spam Volume

11 Growth of Open Proxies
12 The Impact of Spam Legislation New EU spam legislation enacted in December 2003 In December 2003, 62.7% of scanned was spam, rising to 63.0% in January 2004 >70% of spam sent to UK in January originated in the US Figure set to rise to >80% by July 2004 Open to interpretation Jurisdiction not clearly defined EU/US legislation unlikely to ease spam epidemic CAN-SPAM opt-out vs. opt-in Majority of CAN-SPAM compliant spam is dressed-up to appear legitimate Regulation for a previously ungoverned industry Corporate governance (e.g. Sarbanes-Oxley, Basel-2) archiving policies Risk Management
13 Tackling Spam Legal framework is only part of an overall solution Less appealing Difficult to operate and be profitable Locks vs. Laws Need a technology based solution as well IP Block-listing / Permitted sender lists Fingerprints / Signatures Collaborative filtering Heuristics Statistical methods, e.g. Bayes Sender Warranted , e.g. Habeas haiku Open Proxy detection URL signatures
14 Phishing and Identity Theft Phishing s intercepted by MessageLabs
