The cybersecurity landscape is evolving, and so should we. While enterprises can afford to throw everything but the kitchen sink at hackers, this simply isn’t realistic for the other 99% of businesses. Instead, we champion a more proactive and layered approach to security—one that provides comprehensive detection and response at a cost-conscious price point.

Evolving the Hunt with New Huntress Tech and Talent

The Huntress Founders and members of our ThreatOps Team are hosting an open webinar to advise MSPs and Resellers on how to help their customers recover from a mass ransomware attack like the most recent one deployed through the Kaseya VSA.

Our team has coached MSPs and Resellers through over 200 of these types of attacks and we'll be sharing how you can make sure you have an action plan for when something like this happens to your business.

Rapid Response: Mass MSP Ransomware Incident

Developing a cybersecurity stack requires a careful set of balancing acts—too little and clients will look elsewhere, too much and it becomes difficult to manage. So how do you know if you’re offering the right set of services for your SMB clients?

It’s time to redefine how you think about your security stack in a way that is sellable, and most importantly, fully protects your clients. Join us as we discuss how to bring your ‘A’ game to SMB security, including:

- The core components of a strong security stack
- The need for layered security 
- How to tailor the security conversation to win clients over

Redefining Your Stack: A New Step in the MSP Cybersecurity Journey

If money were no object—if the world could function without currency, do you think cybercrime would still exist? Obviously, many hackers are in it for the money alone. Bad actors are always looking to make a quick buck, whether by deploying ransomware, selling data on the dark web or mining cryptocurrency. Bitcoin, Ethereum and other digital currencies are entering the world’s stage, but why should a hacker try to mine their own if they can steal from others?

Join us for our next Tradecraft Tuesday event, where we’ll dive into...
- How hackers make money—and why cryptocurrency is their payment method of choice
- How hackers stole more than $2M in cryptocurrencies
- How they tried to cover their tracks
- How we caught them red-handed

How Hackers Stole $2M in Cryptocurrency

Hackers are compromising common web servers or content management systems, and leveraging these to do more damage. Join this episode of Tradecraft Tuesday for better insights on patching or detecting hackers like these.

Hacking Web Services

Ready to put your AV to the test? It’s time to get our hands on the keyboard and start hacking.

In this session we’ll develop a payload for command and control—and put it to the test against a series of modern antivirus (AV) programs. We’ll pull back the curtain on signature vs. heuristic-based detection, how smart hackers can trick AV, and more. Jam-packed with live demonstrations, this offense-focused session will take you under the hood and show how the bad guys are breaking in.

Slipping Past Prevention: An Intro to Antivirus Evasion

If we’ve learned anything from our time in cybersecurity, it’s that you can’t understate the value of community-building and knowledge-sharing. From ex-intelligence operations to managing enterprise networks, to day-to-day operations in a small mom-and-pop shop—we all have our sea stories to share.

In this session, we’ll bring together members of the IT and small business communities to shine the spotlight on real events they have worked through, and to share important insights and wisdom gained along the way.

Tales From The Trenches: Hacker Horror Stories

Break out your hacker hoodie and prepare to get shady! In this interactive session, we’re planning a big cyberattack and we need your help to make it happen.

As an attendee, you’ll dictate our actions—whether we build our own tool or buy it from the dark web, what features and functionality are most important, and more. Join us for a fun hands-on look at hacker tradecraft, C2 frameworks, post-exploitation tools and the activity taking place in today’s cybercrime markets.

Making the Malware: A Choose-Your-Own Adventure Exercise

As an MSP, both you and your customers are at a much higher risk of a security breach. As a result, every MSP is enhancing security tools and processes. Unfortunately, MSP’s costs related to security are rising faster than the prices they command.

How do you get customers and prospects to make the additional investment required to secure their environments and reduce their risks? TruMethods President Gary Pica and Huntress Senior Account Executive Ryan Cutler will share a step by step method to crack the code on selling managed security.

Mastering the Cybersecurity Sales Conversation

Join Huntress for a digestible breakdown of what’s happening and more importantly, what can be done regarding the current zero-day exploits impacting on-prem MFST Exchange servers.

An Exchange on Exchange: MFST On-Prem Exchange Exploits

With the news of the Exchange Server zero-day flaws being exploited by hackers, this month has already seen its fair share of excitement. Join us for Tradecraft Tuesday as we unpack this recent news, explore how the hackers exploited recent CVEs while using some pretty overt tradecraft, plus a candid discussion on how the attack was much larger than Microsoft had suggested.

We’ll also dive into more details on:
- How these exploits slipped past most preventive security products
- How the vulnerabilities could be leveraged to gain remote code execution
- How living-off-the-land techniques were used for post-exploitation and further attacks
- What this incident means for the greater conversation of security

Exploiting CVEs and On-Prem Exchange Servers

There’s no denying the importance of security software in today’s fight against cybercriminals—but automation and alerting is only half the battle.

In this on-demand webinar, Huntress Senior Security Engineer Dave Kleinatland highlights the importance of moving beyond automation with human threat hunting—and takes an under-the-hood look at a RAT to show how IT resellers can identify and respond to modern threats.

A Peek Inside Threat Research - Dissecting a RAT

Your clients are counting on you to protect them from advanced threats and cyberattacks, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy to upsell them on your newest services and higher-tier offerings.

In this on-demand webinar, hear from three managed service providers (MSPs) who have successfully pivoted their clients toward higher-tier security bundles and offerings—including how they overcome common objections and pricing conversations.

Huntress Partner Panel

As an information security professional, you're likely no stranger to thinking in worst-case scenario terms. Of course, learning from the experience of others can help as well.

During this webinar, you will hear the story of a real incident, what went wrong, and how to avoid meeting the same fate as the unfortunate victim.

Incident Response Case Study: What Happens When Everything Goes Wrong

It’s time to challenge the way you look at improving your cybersecurity!

We all know the drill: when security gaps are identified, you fill them in with new solutions. But with added costs and learning curves, it isn’t always that simple. What if we took a different approach and extracted more value and function out of tools we already use?

Join our founders, Chris Bisnett and Kyle Hanslovan, as they dive into how we’re redefining the security investment cycle with the latest addition to the Huntress Security Platform.

Redefining Security Investment: Introducing Huntress' Latest Service

There’s a long and concerning history of threat actors targeting managed service providers (MSPs) and the small and mid-size businesses (SMBs) they support. For every new incident or strain of malware we discover, security researchers must carefully step through each stage of the attack to understand its technical components — and determine how to defend against it. In this session, we’ll analyze the delivery of Ryuk ransomware while highlighting the danger in other threats like Emotet and Trickbot. Join us for a discussion spanning both prevention and detection, with a live demonstration that showcases how each link in the chain presents an opportunity to stop a cyberattack. Huntress is a leading provider of advanced threat detection and actionable cybersecurity information that delivers easy to follow remediation steps into your existing ticketing system. IT Departments & MSPs worldwide use Huntress to enable their junior IT staff to confidently address cybersecurity incidents that slip past their preventive security stack. As a result, they discover breaches before they cause downtime, costly cleanup, and damaged reputations.

Analyzing Ryuk: Another Link in the Cyber Attack Chain

What makes a file a file? Your computer can open up pictures, music, videos and documents, but how does it know which program to use? You can’t always trust a file extension—and in fact, some of these filetypes are able to hide malicious code. Join us for a technical demonstration as we explore how common files are viewed and understood by the Windows operating system, and how the right tricks enable hackers to manipulate and maliciously repurpose them.
