Among incidents for the last 6 months we see that they are directed to some of Secode's customers, and then mostly customers in the financial sector. There has been a decrease in the number of reconnaissance attacks this period, mainly because of decreased activity from infected computers in Poland towards the VNC service. Spam and worm activity remain at a stable level. Focus of The Month: The biggest threat Threats and Trends is produced by personnel in Secode's Operations Centre, and the report is based upon events registered during the specified period. The report contains events deemed to be of public interest, as they are registered by Secode and the vaious sensors and observation points in different networks. All specific and identifiable information about companies and Secode customers is removed in this report. The reports are published on these pages monthly.
