This page should be about watering holes where animals go to drink, not a Public house. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.201.179.105 (talk • contribs) 07:29, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Talk: Improvement Plan
Hello, I am working on improving this article as part of my coursework. My partner and I have come up with a number of improvements that we plan to make over the next couple of days, and would love to hear any feedback you might have about them!

We will:
 * Fix the references to Google Books (they currently link to the Korean Google Books site, which isn't entirely appropriate for the English-language wikipedia
 * Add a number of new references (specifically we're looking at adding well-documented information from Cisco's Annual Security Report (http://www.cisco.com/web/offer/gist_ty2_asset/Cisco_2014_ASR.pdf) and Symantec's Internet Security Threat Report (https://www.symantec.com/content/dam/symantec/docs/reports/istr-21-2016-en.pdf)
 * Add a section on preventing watering hole attacks, using the previous sources as well as (https://securitycommunity.tcs.com/infosecsoapbox/articles/2017/02/06/watering-hole-attack-sophisticated-alternate-spear-phishing-attack)
 * Adding a section on notable examples

Again, we welcome any opinions on better ways to improve this article! Cadandcookies (talk) 04:36, 2 April 2017 (UTC)
