Two grey hat hacker collectives joined forces and launched an operation called Op Ivy, intended to reveal the large number of vulnerabilities present in the official websites of major universities, first ones on the list being Brown University, Columbia University, Dartmouth University, Cornell University, Harvard University, Princeton University, University of Pennsylvania, and Yale University.
The annual DIMVA conference serves as a premier forum for advancing the state of the art in intrusion detection, malware detection, and vulnerability assessment. Each year DIMVA brings together international experts from academia, industry and government to present and discuss novel research in these areas. DIMVA is organized by the special interest group Security - Intrusion Detection and Response (SIDAR) of the German Informatics Society (GI). The conference proceedings will appear in Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series.
