Perhaps this page can get us started in the directions we want to pursue.
Cyber Criminal Activity:
Trace history of cyber criminal activity, evolution from intrusion to botnets as platforms for global criminal activity.
Profile the evolution of attackers, targets, defenders, vulnerabilities, threats, and goals of attacks. Where are the trends pointing?
