Hi,
I found that finding them on IRC, or wherever it is that they
congregate, and simply talking to them until they incriminate themselves
tends to work best. I also found that firewalls, IDS, security audits,
antivirus, antimalware etc work almost not at all. The reason for this
is pretty simple. Cybercrime is not a technical problem and does not
have a technical solution. The solution is just like any other criminal
act, find them, get them to confess, and then put a real world face and
location to the IRC persona. Easy.
