Most Computer Attacks Originate in U.S.

In an article by Jordan Robertson of Wired.com, most computer attacks are generated in the United States, as attackers are becoming more evolved.

"Criminals may purchase verified credit card numbers for as little as $1, and they can buy a complete identity - a date of birth and U.S. bank account, credit card and government-issued identification numbers - for $14, according to Symantec's twice-yearly Internet Security Threat Report released Monday."

Pretty scary is you ask me!
