Ported article

This is one of WPs top articles -- 11th in traffic in Dec 2009. I ported it, rewrote it, added new information, deleted other information (specific references to malicious programs) and spruced it up hopefully.--Thomas Wright Sulcer 18:34, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

Nothing wrong with having writeups on malicious programs, but they would be best in independent articles, since there are many reasons to link to them. I'd start with some of the more historic ones against which there should be solid defenses, such as the Morris worm and Slammer, which can be used as detailed case studies. --Howard C. Berkowitz 19:33, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

We really, really need a security subgroup

I'd start, but I'm in and out of bed with a bad cold. Minimally:

  • Computers
  • Sociology and/or psychology (I think both)
  • Law
  • Military
  • Economics (if that's where we are putting accounting and audit)

--Howard C. Berkowitz 19:33, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

We now have such a subgroup, thanks to Howard. I've just added this article. Sandy Harris 13:11, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
