Abstract
This talk will explore the past, present, and future of Internet security, specifically the rise of the criminal online underworld. Our current situation of botnets for financial gain, rogue ISPs who support these attacks, spam, malware explosions, and the like are due to the past decade of tactical efforts. Understanding these "megatrends" is key to anticipating what will happen next and what kinds of technical—and policy—preparations we should make.
