McAfee has released a new semi-annual security journal titled Sage. It contains editorials as well as "in-depth technical pieces by respected industry experts".
This first issue deals a lot with different aspects of open source with highlighted pieces including: * Good Intentions Gone Awry: A look at how open source principles, as practiced in the malware-writing community, have affected the evolution of threats.
* Money Changes Everything: How financial incentives and open source practices have changed the character and quality of malware and its development.
* Building Better Bots: An examination of the impact that professional development methodologies are having on this particular type of malware and the implications and issues associated with their use. "To stay ahead in today's ever-shifting threat landscape, security experts and practitioners need a dedicated and timely outlet like Sage where they can discuss poignant and compelling security issues," says McAfee senior vice president of global research and threats, Stuart McClure.
The first issue of Sage can be downloaded from the McAfee Threat Center here.
