Second Edition of Holland Strikes Back
On October 27, 2015, the NLnet Foundation, together with its partners in DINL (AMS-ix, DDA, DHPA, ISPConnect, SIDN, and SURFnet), organized the second edition of the conference "Holland Strikes Back." During this event, a series of prominent speakers analyzed the most important and notable cyberattacks of the moment. Aiko Pras (UT Twente), Rickey Gevers (RedSocks), and Michel van Leeuwen (NCSC) discussed topics such as DDoS attacks, AbuseIO, ethical hacking, and ransomware. The event focused on these issues, said Marc Gauw, NLnet's general director. Professionals and stakeholders with real security incident experience were invited to share what measures have been taken and what additional measures they believe should be implemented. Over 300 visitors registered for the event, which was held at the Museum of Communication in The Hague (NL). Holland Strikes Back is part of Alert Online, the national awareness campaign on cyber prevention by the Ministry of Security and Justice.
