PandaLabs Annual Malware Report

The report reviews the major incidents and events concerning IT security in 2009. The outstanding trend of the last 12 months has been the prolific production of new malware: 22 million new strains were created in just one year, compared to a combined total of 18 million throughout the rest of the company's 20-year history. This latest surge of activity included countless new examples of banker Trojans as well as a host of fake antivirus programs. During 2009 some 92% of all email traffic was identified as spam. Beside spam cyber criminals more and more favor distribution channels like social networks and SEO attacks. Finally, PandaLabs has predicted that the amount of malware in circulation will continue to grow during the next year. Windows 7 will surely attract the interest of hackers when it comes to designing new malware. Attacks on Mac will also increase.
