To protect & Serve - Sitios con Malware

De acuerdo a WEbsense, cerca del 70% de los sitios más comunes contienen o te llevan a sitios con contenido malicioso

Aquí un extracto

Web Security
• 75 percent of Web sites with malicious code are legitimate sites that have been compromised.
This represents an almost 50 percent increase over the previous six-month period.
• 60 percent of the top 100 most popular Web sites have either hosted or been involved in
malicious activity in the first half of 2008.
• 12 percent of Web sites infected with malicious code were created using Web malware exploitation
kits, a decrease of 33 percent since December 2007. Websense researchers believe
this decrease may be attributed to attackers launching more customized attacks to avoid
signature detection by security measures.
Messaging Security
• 87 percent of email messages are spam. This percentage remains the same as the second half
of 2007.
• 76.5 percent of all emails in circulation contained links to spam sites and/or malicious Web
sites. This represents an 18 percent increase over the previous six-month period.
• 85 percent of unwanted (spam or malicious) emails contain a link.
• Pornography-related spam decreased by more than 70 percent and is no longer the most
popular topic for spam. Shopping (20 percent), Cosmetics (19 percent), and Medical (11 percent)
represent the majority of today’s spam.
• 9 percent of spam messages are phishing attacks, representing a 47 percent increase over
the last six months.
Data Security
• 29 percent of malicious Web attacks included data-stealing code.
• 46 percent of data-stealing attacks are conducted over the Web.
