Description:
We have had to change the meeting topic due to a conflict with our previously scheduled presenter.
The bash scripting talk will be given later in the year.
Presentation
Malware authors use code pattern changes utilizing polymorphic and metamorphic engines as well as executable packer and wrapper technologies to evade detection, analysis and attribution. This has led the security industry away from maintaining vast signature databases into newer defence technologies such as behaviour blocking, application white listing and others.
The threat malware poses is evident by continual increases in four key malware attributes: frequency of incidents, speed of propagation, damage done or intended and the universality of the impact. Malware affects us all. Let’s learn to learn with it in this informative session by Patrick Malcolm.
