RE: drone armies C&C report - July/2005
Going further I think IL-CERT is doing a great service to the Internet community. Their alerts allow to responsible network admins to investigate and to preserve their networks clean of debris like spyware and trojans. Do what you want with your networks, but PLEASE keep the Internet clean.

The question of self promotion came back split down the middle. It was noted that IL CERT does a fantastic job seeing that there are no IL networks listed. Or none that are easily identifiable. [...]

I don't think anyone disputed the 'good work'. The dispute, as often is the case with these sorts of reports, is 'where did the data come from and how much can I get to send along to my customer who is the real problem in this case?'
investigate and to preserve their networks clean of debris like spyware and trojans.
'investigation' often ends with: "this is customer 12, tell them to fix it" which means sending down logs/info/help/blah to get customer 12 to understand and believe there is a problem. :(

Sure thing, note the coming shutdown for vaccuuming up the old/stale/lost packets please.

Thanks for the compliments, Marlon, but this service is unrelated to the Israeli CERT, as stated. :) The people behind the drone armies list are net-ops guys who care, just like you. With AV-ers, researchers, and other vetted individuals. Gadi.
