The Register reported last week on a what they refer to as 'crimeware as a service' or 'CaaS.' It's an interesting read since it proves that there is increasing organization behind collecting and distributing vulnerability information online. In this case, it's a service, published by black hats, that contains username/password data for some 8,700 hundred Fortune 500 websites that can be used by attackers to disrupt, deface, or destroy some of the most popular websites on the internet.
