Title: An Evaluation of Publicly Available Exploit Code
Description: Information security practitioners rely on public or privately disclosed information about vulnerabilities to assess risk. While most attackers rely on publicly available tools to deliver attacks. To better assess risk it is necessary to understand the distinguishing features of those tools. A realistic assessment should include information about the quantity and quality of tools available to the attacker. Additionally, issues like reliability, effectiveness, market outreach, stealthness and novelty in techniques must also be addressed.
The RSA® Conference, the most prestigious information security event of the year, is also the most authoritative source for uncovering new ways to thwart cyber-criminals trying to smuggle themselves into today's businesses. As such, it is a "must attend" event for organizations that deploy, develop or investigate data security or cryptography products.
