Trustworthy Accountability Group (TAG) reports on its blog about its first Malware Summit in New York City which brought together a small group of industry leaders to discuss the current state of
– and solutions to – malware and malvertising in digital advertising. The summit facilitated a dialogue with representatives from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, FBI, and
Department of Justice. TAG maintains that these relationships will be critical in fighting malware: "Our efforts on malware build on similar approaches to tackling the issues of fraud, piracy, and
lack of transparency. By bringing together the brightest minds and most influential companies in the industry, TAG leverages their knowledge and experience to create industry-wide programs to tackle
those difficult issues. With the engagement of key companies throughout the process, we both ensure that we are building on existing best practices and launch with a critical mass of industry support
when the program is ready for broad deployment."
Coming out of the Summit, TAG plans to work toward an information-sharing infrastructure and set of best practices that will allow the
industry to take an aggressive role in fighting malware.
