As worldwide chief technology officer for security company McAfee, George Kurtz took part in the investigation — called Operation Aurora — earlier this year of the attacks against Google and a number of other companies that apparently targeted high-value sensitive information. He said the attacks illustrate the threat from motivated, well-resourced hackers who use social engineering to compromise information technology systems. “We certainly learned some valuable lessons from Operation Aurora, and what we see as the next frontier in attacking systems in corporations is the mobile devices that are in use today,” Kurtz said. “We’re going to see the next wave of malware and attacks target specific devices.”
