The SANS Internet Storm Center receives millions of lines of firewall and IDS logs from hundreds of thousands of hosts every month. Given this huge influx of data, the ISC sits in an excellent position to see cutting edge attacks. In addition, the SANS ISC is staffed by approximately 35 volunteer handlers who together have an amazing insight into security trends. Come and hear about what the ISC
Handlers see when they gaze into their crystal ball.
