SAN MATEO, Calif., May 22, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

Infosecurity Europe is Europe’s largest and most comprehensive Information Security event.

Domain names are cheap, easy-to-get assets – the perfect tool for the perfect crime. In this presentation, Dr. Vixie will reveal the industry conditions that have sparked the explosion of domain names; explain how new domains are being abused for cybercrime; and finally, outline tools, techniques and procedures security professionals can put in place to reduce the risk posed by new domains.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Bad actors have learned to exploit new domains to commit crime
  • New domains can be exploited to for zero-day attacks, counterfeit websites, phishing and other malicious activity
  • Reputation services, blacklists do not provide immediate protection against new domains
