Online criminals must be homeless

This is the time to think about Christmas and New Year. So are those online criminals, but not for peace. According to Businesses brace themselves against Bagle barrage, many emails with the subject lines like "New Year's", "New Year's Day", "Happy New Year" and "We congratulate happy New Year" are with attached viral file.

We may assume that these online criminals are homeless or without families, therefore they have no peace, no holiday and nothing to enjoy. Poor guys.

If they have employers, then they are the best workers.

That means we must maintain the same defense every day of the year.

The most dangerous thing is the assumption of safety. Basing on what happened lately, we must understand that firewall, software etc. cannot have hundred percent protection. Good practice is the last part we should not forget.
