Eddy Willems Anti-Virus Consultancy International

This is Eddy Willems’ official and original homepage for anti-virus and anti-malware consultancy with links to most anti-malware sites and companies in the world.

I advise you to have a look at my newer site www.eddywillems.be  or www.wavci.com which is up-to-date.

This site will not be updated anymore and will disappear in the future!

This site was the reference in independent anti-malware advice and information. It is also known as the first Belgian anti-virus page and one of the oldest security sites on the Web. This site is renewed in September 2010 and exists since 1995. Within these pages you will find one of the most comprehensive lists of anti-malware sites in the world with over 10.000 links.

I have been working over 3 decades as Anti-Malware Technology Expert for the security industry (NOXS (a Westcon Group Company), McAfee, TrendMicro and Symantec) and as Security Evangelist for Kaspersky Lab. I am now working as Security Evangelist for G DATA CyberDefense AG . I am a Belgian Cyber Security Expert who is (or has been) a board member of most international security and malware organizations in the world. I am the first and only Belgian being on the board of three ( EICAR, AVAR, and LSEC) international security organizations at the same time. Find more about me at the ‘about me’ page for a more detailed bio. I’m also a recognized security media expert having experience with live tv ranging from local Benelux to international TV stations like CNN, Al Jazeera, TRT World and more.

I published my first book ‘Cybergevaar‘ (Lannoo) in 2013. A German translation became available ‘Cybergefahr‘ (Springer) in 2015. An updated and expanded English edition ‘Cyberdanger‘ (Springer) was published in 2019.

In 2020 together with co-author Alain Dierckx I published my first SF Cyberthriller ‘Het Virus‘ (Lannoo).

These days I’m also known for my inspiring talks. You can book me for an interesting security talk via my speakers office: Read-My-Lips. I am an inspiring speaker and I’m giving lectures and presentations worldwide for a very diverse audience from children to experts.

Take also a look at my Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn channels.

This site is and will remain always completely independent! (Site Design: Sonia Auger and Eddy Willems)

Het Virus – My first SF Cyberthriller published

Het Virus

22 September 2020 together with co-author I published my first SF Cyberthriller ‘Het Virus’ . It’s a compelling thriller in Dutch about a very dangerous computer virus which will threaten the world like a biological pandemic.

“Utrecht, 13 February 2034. A self-driving car is hacked and disrupted, resulting in a fatal crash. NATO, which oversees global internet security, realizes that the world is in danger when two more attacks occur shortly thereafter. Europol inspector Lara Hartman and communications officer Frank Willems start a feverish manhunt for the perpetrators behind this awesome form of cyber terror. Everything seems to indicate a particularly dangerous computer virus. A race against time ensues to find an antivirus that can stop evil …”

For much more information have a look at the (Dutch) website of the book itself where you even can find the prequel of the story: www.hetvirus.com

 

My New Book ‘Cyberdanger’ Is Released: June 2019

I am really proud that my new book Cyberdanger is available wordwide now. Just buy a copy at your favourite online bookshop!

This book describes the key cybercrime threats facing individuals, businesses, and organizations in our online world. I first explain malware and its origins; I also describe the extensive underground economy and the various attacks that cybercriminals have developed, including malware, spam, and hacking; I also offer constructive advice on countermeasures for individuals and organizations; and I discuss the related topics of cyberespionage, cyberwarfare, hacktivism, and anti-malware organizations, and appropriate roles for the state and the media.

The book is important reading for all professionals engaged with securing information, people, and enterprises. It’s also a valuable introduction for the general reader who wants to learn about cybersecurity.

Blogging and other Information …

I started my website August 25 1995. It was and still is dedicated to cybersecurity. Honestly speaking I always wanted to help people and that was part of my way to deal with it.  I started to blog September 2004 and I’m still doing it. However my blogs are divided up all over several websites since then.
