We'll tell you a secret. Not very many people know this.

Most malware development courses and papers cover the same material: process injection, persistence, basic anti-reverse engineering techniques, etc

This doesn't scratch the surface of what malware or malware research is.

Yes, these concepts are innately malicious, but the primary objective of malware is stealth. Everyone knows the techniques described in public facing courses. You think anti-malware companies don't see them?

A BIG part of malware is finding unusual methods to accomplish tasks.

This isn't a diss toward any malware course or book. But, there is some kind of misconception that you can learn everything you need from these courses.

If you wanted to learn everything (malware research from the 80's or 90's up until ... today) the book would look like this:

Someone is (allegedly) leaking 5.23PB of K-Pop data on Discord (?). We don't follow K-Pop, so we can't determine the validity of the data or what it entails. We also do not possess the ability to review 5.23PB of data.

All we can do is watch K-Pop nerds handle it.

Hello, how are you?

We're super, super, super close to finalizing the virus-dot-exchange migration. After working closely with our hosting provider TorGuard, we can confirm our total malware sample count (de-duplicated, clean, confirmed malware) is 15,521,562 — however, we still have another .... 1TB of malware to sync ... so ... guess we'll see how clean we are?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Next up, we have a bunch of APT samples and paper I've gotta throw up on the website. I haven't done it yet, but I will, I promise, eventually, soon, maybe. I'm aiming to do it this week (we're behind hardcore).

Next next up, we've got more builders and stuff from Cryakl. I intend on moving the builders around and making them easier to find.

Next next next up, we've got another 192GB of malware in queue we haven't even added to the site yet.

Big stuff this week.

Hope everyone enjoyed the weekend.

I've got a really small brain. Accidentally added a zero (or something, whatever excuse I can make). It's 523TB, not 5.23PB

A video was shared online today of a person named "Dave" being violently assaulted for their cryptocurrency. This is a continuing trend of violent crime associated with cryptocurrency.

A person has identified the location of the video. This is Banbury Park in North York, Ontario, Canada.

oracle WAS NOT hacked! a criminal just happened to PERFECTLY guess customer data and it BY CHANCE perfectly matched the data of healthcare customers!!!

ORACLE WAS NOT COMPROMISED! oracle intentionally inserted a weird txt file into there website with a criminals email address!!!!
