Advanced Malware Traffic Analysis - Smarter Protection. 2021 Edition

This intensive hands-on training gives students the essential know-how of malware traffic analysis: the experience and knowledge of understanding malware behaviors on the network. Our rich exercises teach students an analysis methodology to recognize malicious connections, distinguish normal from malicious behaviors, and deal with large amounts of traffic. The most important lesson of the training is not about how to use the tools. The goal is to transmit the experience of recognizing the malicious actions of malware in the network. Specifically, how the malware hides, how to hunt it down, to analyze traffic patterns, and to discard false positives connections. Students will execute their own malware, exploit active services, capture the traffic, and analyze it. This improved edition gives students knowledge of machine learning, SIEM analysis, modern malware attacks, and the experience of how to do a good analysis of network traffic to recognize malicious behaviors in their networks.
