(The Register) Amazon’s public cloud is the largest haven of malware spreaders in the US, according to security company Solutionary.
The claims are in the outfit’s “Quarterly Threat Intelligence Report” [PDF], which uses data from Solutionary’s ActiveGuard Security and Compliance Platform. It was published on Wednesday.
“Malware and, more specifically, its distributors are utilizing the technologies and services that make processes, application deployment and website creation easier. Now we have to maintain our focus not only on the most dangerous parts of the Web but also on the parts we expect to be more trustworthy,” said Rob Kraus, director of research in Solutionary’s Security Engineering Research Team (SERT).
