I suggest you read John D. Howard's PhD dissertation, "An Analysis Of
Security Incidents On The Internet 1989 - 1995". It has some solid
statistics and trend analysis on the incidents reported to CERT during
that time period. It also contains an interesting attack taxonomy. But at
about 300 pages it is not a one night read.

My apologies to all. I should have included the url. Here it is:
