  • Abstract
    Dealing with network security requires knowledge of the attacker. The question of attacker motivations is complex. This paper is a literature review examining whether attacker motivations are homogenous or heterogeneous. This is part of an ongoing research effort to characterize system attackers with the goal of helping to mold policy decisions.
