Day in the Life of the Internet Storm Center

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the jobs-you-don't-want dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Network World Fusion has an article about the Internet Storm Center's inner workings. The writer follows the ISC during the day of the MyDoom-O outbreak (the one that hit Google et al.). The article talks about running W2K in vmware on top of SuSe Linux. A practice very common in malware analysis to isolate yourself from various ill effects of the malware. Other open source software receiving a mention in the article is everybodies favorite packet analyzer Ethereal."

    Speaking of it: I can't get VMware Workstation 4.5.2-8848 to work on SuSE 9.1 with the latest kernel.

    Anybody got a good tip ?

    Real storm chasing leads to really cool pictures.

    Internet storm chasing leads to porn.

    I can't decide which one is better.

    Just shows that the Slashdot editors don't read the articles and/or follow the links either.

    Perhaps if you want to advertise yourself as a PHP developer for hire, you'd want to remove the PHP parse errors in your code?
