Why Hackers Write Computer Viruses

August 06, 2011

"It's not just a hypothetical fear. Ivan Eugene Kaspersky, who owns one of the world's leading anti-virus security labs, had his son Ivan snatched off the streets of Moscow earlier this year. Whether there was a revenge motivation, in addition to the ransom, is still unclear. But the fact remains that anti-virus guys are now effectively standing between the mob and big piles of money. Which is never a very safe place to be.

And if that wasn't bad enough, now there's a new, potentially deadlier, source of viruses: governments."
