Most people who claim to speak with authority about computer viruses have little or no genuine expertise. Some virus experts describe it as "False Authority Syndrome" -- the person feels competent to discuss viruses because of his job title, or because of his expertise in another computer field, or simply because he knows how to use a computer.

Quote Interesant stukje uit het artikel... zeker lezen...:

NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE mainstream media's role in the spread of False Authority Syndrome. Empirical Research Systems (a computer industry polling firm) conducted a survey in 1991 of corporate employees tasked in some way with computer security. 43% of respondents -- almost half -- formed their opinions about viruses just by reading newspapers!

Newspaper reporters talk to these people to get details (and quotes) for a story. This means the press feeds information to virus pseudo-experts, who gladly regurgitate it for other reporters, who write more stories about viruses, which other pseudo-experts read... thus creating an endless circle of misinformation and a never-ending supply of "instant experts."

This same survey concluded with a sad statistic: it estimates two-thirds of employees tasked with computer security duties have inadequate knowledge about computer viruses.

Ross Greenberg earned international fame as one of the pioneers in IBM PC antivirus software. He went into semi-retirement in his mid-30s. Greenberg continues to lecture about viruses, wrapping up with a simple analysis of how he made his fortune: "I'd still be slaving away at a desk for another 25 years if people backed up [their computer data] and kept a cool head."

Quote Artikel over Linux virus Bliss:

It was promptly analyzed by Alan Cox on February 8th, and, one day later and much more comprehensively, by Ray Lehtiniemi. Quick summary: if you run bliss (which is, by the way, not specific to Linux and can be compiled for SunOS, Solaris, and OpenBSD) or any binary infected with bliss, it tries to attach itself to (i.e.: infect) all binaries that you have write access to, on all machines that you have rsh access to. It writes a neat log of all its actions to /tmp/.bliss and even has a --bliss-uninfect-files-please command line option that sometimes might come handy, and actually does what it promises. Bliss was compiled with helpful debugging information. I especially like the feature where it tries to patch the Linux kernel source, so that the next kernel compilation will produce a much more cooperative Linux. Moral: don't run it, especially if you're root. That's all there is to it. We all knew already that we should never do anything but system administration as root, now didn't we? We also should never run executables that we haven't compiled ourselves from inspected sources. Big deal.

Quote zelfde artikel... McAfee heeft humor:
McAfee is a company that makes its money from the fact that people continue to use inferior operating systems that can easily be infected with viruses, with disastrous results. In their press release, dated February 5 and widely reprinted in clueless media everywhere, they claim to have "discovered" bliss (actually, they are talking about the earlier alpha version, but they don't know this), a program that had been publicly available for several months at that time, thereby proving that they don't even follow the security and virus usenet newsgroups. They also recommend that you run one of their binaries, without letting you look at the sources, of course. Now what have we learned a moment ago: is that a good idea? An analysis of the press announcement has been provided by Russ Allbery. Another message shows that the information about bliss was provided to McAfee by a participant on the linux-security mailing list, where the sighting of the alpha version had been posted previously. McAfee, the heroic virus discoverer! Savior of the universe!
