Sessions
File-less threats operate in silence and stealth, enabling adversaries to bypass automated cybersecurity, lurk in our digital wonderland, and avoid standard detections. They are hidden beasts in shadow! This technical talk will briefly explain the different types of file-less threats and the importance of threat hunting to combat them. A Windows-based file-less threat will also be hunted via the live system, memory, and network packet analysis, followed by a comparative discussion about each method's capabilities. The threat hunts' hypotheses used in this presentation are practical, and all will be mapped with MITRE knowledge bases.
