@rsprooten showing us another way to look at malware code similarly with vector search! #bsides #bsidesbelfast #bsidesbelfast24

Excited to have presented on code similarity detection using Vector Search at #FirstCTI24 in Berlin! Yesterday, teamed up with @RFGroenewoud for a workshop on Malware Analysis & Event Collection. Amazing audience, incredible insights! #Cybersecurity

Not sure what this is but a lot of vt uploads recently with EV cert "REMAX PLUS LLC". PDF icon. Embedded obfuscated string "I am Black Delivery"

Just encountered a case in the #BeaverTail/#InvisibleFerret malware campaign, previously identified by @Unit42_Intel. Our findings: campaign ID NVRlYW05 and C2 server 144[.]172.74.108. It's a reminder of the evolving nature of cyber threats. Stay alert! #CyberSecurity #InfoSec

There have been several incorrect reports that FFmpeg has been involved in the distribution of malware. FFmpeg only provides source code and the source code has not been compromised. Any "ffmpeg.dll" that has been compromised is the responsibility of the vendor.

So I did not sleep a lot last night, but it's all worth it when you're working with a great team and kicking some #malware to the curb 🤣.
#ElasticSecurityLabs provides an overview of the recent 3CX supply chain compromise used to distribute SUDDENICON #malware, and provides resources to @elastic security users: go.es.io/40rIHLq

Speciale thanks to @dez_ , @DanielStepanic , @_devonkerr_ and @andythevariable for helping me prove once again that sleep is for the weak.

In all seriousness, it is very cool to be able to work on these samples. Especially the last stage (the info stealer). Anyone else had a look at that?

And one more in this series. This time we go into the tools and techniques they used for maintaining persistence. We've seen a shift from custom #malware to #opensource tools and code.
