Ransomware variants are implementing new, innovative techniques that employ unknown binaries and non-malware tactics to evade and bypass traditional defenses. Their encryption techniques go beyond simple files and shares to make it even harder to restore using backups; and their targets are increasingly becoming...
Yes, malware commonly targets the Windows operating system. But if you limit malware analysis to Windows OS, you're leaving gaping vulnerabilities, says Christopher Kruegel of Lastline Inc. Here's how to maximize your analysis.
Kruegel, CEO of Lastline, says that one common limitation of malware analysis is that...
