Title: SQL Injection Attacks Increasing
Post by Pete Finnigan on Jul 21^st, 2006, 10:14am

Two days ago an item appeared on Slashdot (http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/07/19/1213201&from=rss) about how SQL attacks on banks, credit unions and utility clients.

According to the article that Slashdot linked to (http://www.net-security.org/secworld.php?id=4076): "From January through March, we blocked anywhere from 100 to 200 SQL Injection attacks per day," said SecureWorks CTO Jon Ramsey. "As of April, we have seen that number jump from 1,000 to 4,000 to 8,000 per day," said Ramsey.
