18. SECURITY
quot;People are buying into this hype and
throwing together ideas for Web
applications, but they are not thinking about
security, and they are not realizing how
badly they are exposing their users.quot; – Billy
Hoffman, SPI Dynamics
Web 2.0 sites more interactive than web
Viruses, Worms, Spyware
Hackers
Most Web 2.0 sites “trusted” by URL filtering- won’t
be blocked even if they potentially have malicious
code
Not blocked by enterprises
Can lead to many issues
19. HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF
Enterprises
Adopt multi-layer approach
Install appliance that performs real-time code inspection
of traffic flowing in/out of network
Personal
