Report from day 1 of Virus Bulletin 2006

Today was an interesting day and started with a good keynote speach. The rest of the presentations were interesting especially one that for the first time explained what it really means to have a backdoor trojan and/or a keylogger on a system. So many times people think that simply just disinfecting a file is sufficient to handle a virus incident. This is no longer the case. You really have to start thinking about which passwords were stolen, what bank accounts and credit cards were compromised and what proprietary and/or personal information were stolen.
