Speaker: Patrick Malcom
Most intrusions involve some form of malicious software. When investigating an incident, the responder typically seeks to answer questions such as: Which systems are affected? What actions can the malware specimen perform on the system? How does it spread? How does it maintain contact with the attacker? These questions can all be answered by analyzing the malware.
