Crimeware Toolkits Driving Most Online Malware

DIY crimeware kits lower the bar for less technical bad guys to get into cybercrime. 60 percent of malicious websites use these toolkits to do their dirty work, according to a new report from Symantec. The kits historically helped computer-savvy bad guys become criminals, and now they are helping more seasoned criminals become cybercriminals.
