About this talk

The threat landscape continues to expand, paving the way for new cyber attacks. Attackers have nothing to lose and they have thrown a lot of new tricks from their mystery hats. The majority of these threats use pandemic-themed email as their entry point and deploy new tricks to infect endpoint users. This talk will cover the rise of RATS, the rise of XLS attachment exploits, and new obfuscation techniques to conceal core code and configuration files by malware authors. The talk also touches on the theme of how techniques in exfiltration are changing and how rapidly other threat actors are adopting or improvising on these trends.
