> The first internet worm spreading via flawed docker images?
Good question, why don't we see exploits of all that implicit trust to the degree that, eg, the DOS shareware scene gave your PC visible virus infection, or the early internet gave us worms that would bog down the whole net?
My attempt at an answer: Because the black hats aren't hobbyists anymore. Visibility is for amateurs.
- icebraining 8y agoAre you saying that every new black hat is immediately a professional? Or that there aren't any new black hats? In every other activity of human life, new amateurs appear as the older ones become professionals. Where are the visible exploits from the new amateurs?
- YouAreGreat 8y ago> Are you saying that every new black hat is immediately a professional To a degree that's what I'm saying. Sentencing for "computer crimes" when perpetrated by non-corporate entities has reached epic levels. I'm sure qualified talent takes that into account.
