Brave New World “The Threat Landscape has changed radically in the last couple of years. Rarely do threats start with a couple of anti-globalism dorm boys, now threats begin with professional, international organised crime syndicates,” warns Symantec Hosted Service’s VP for Apac & Japan, Bjorn Engelhardt. FBI partners close to Engelhardt have described the value of cybercrime to equate to the value of the drug trade in the US. “These groups are highly professional, they are after any information that they can on-sell, it may be information on product and trade secrets or it may be customer databases. It is serious business - the cyber criminals’ objectives are to target IT systems, lie low and remain there undetected for as long as they can, skimming valuable and privileged information.”

Bjorn Engelhardt is a man of the world. A Baby Boomer with Y-Gen energy and ICT expertise, Engelhardt - as his name may imply - is Scandinavian at heart. Born in Denmark, he moved to Norway as a child and then settled in Australia at the age of 11. Engelhard will tell you though that he is also Australian at heart, quoting his vast knowledge of cricket, rugby, Australian music and other Aussie cultural pillars as proof.
