“Often hackers are weaving from one system to another, and it's hard for us to tell where the communication is coming from. We want to see the trap-and-trace law updated so we can trace a communication to the source, so we can serve the court order on the next carrier down the line.”
David Green
“Sophisticated hackers don't attack in a straight line, ... They weave between sites. If one of these sites strips off the source information and throws it away, there can be a break in the chain for investigators.”
Scott Charney
“Well, we started about 24 years ago demonstrating corn-husk weaving at the Boone County Conservatory and, well, one thing leads to another.”
Chuck Anderson
“A hacker can jump onto any residential wireless connection and just go to town. Hackers have an underground network set up to trade illegal information. And with wireless, there's been an explosion of information for sale.”
Cory Michal
“Because so many hacking attacks are not from the hackers' computer, but are instead spread throughout a system of many computers, that is one reason it is difficult for law enforcement.”
Rob Ayoub
“What happens if a hacker in the U.K. breaks into a system in South Africa, or in the U.S.? ... Where did the crime happen? And who has jurisdiction? The police must cooperate across borders, and, frankly, the police are not very good at that.”
Bob Ayers
“To a hacker, you're just an IP address. You get hit because you let yourself be an easy mark.”
