In January 2002, Bill Gates, the then CEO of Microsoft, declared that Microsoft would secure all its products and services, and initiated a massive training and quality control program. Just seven short years later, the Conficker virus infiltrated and devastated millions of Microsoft PCs around the world.

Here is a network defender at his best—imagine a town in the Wild West, the streets are empty and two lone gunmen face off. The first is the net defender, the second is the adversary. As the clock strikes high noon, the adversary draws his revolver, the net defender waits for something to happen. Once the adversary fires the first six shots, he reloads and shoots six more shots, the net defender is mortally wounded but is now ready to draw. He raises his revolver with great speed and loads his arrows. With blurred vision and eyesight failing, he takes aim and wildly fires off a round or two before collapsing.

—Angelo Bencivenga, Chief of the Army Research Lab Computer Incident Response Team
