Evasive Security Threats: How Well Do You Know Your Adversary?

Malicious actors are more resourceful than ever. They have learned the different techniques and processes used for malware analysis, and have created threats that can evade detection by traditional tools such as antivirus. Sun Tzu’s “The Art of War” states: “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.” With this in mind, protecting your organization requires both a foundational understanding of highly evasive threats and an updated methodology for malware detection.

Below are links to a few educational resources to equip security teams with greater knowledge about evasive threats and how to prevent them.

• Read our white paper “Rethink Your Strategy to Defeat Evasive Attacks” for a comprehensive understanding of evasive malware and effective strategies for preventing these advanced threats.
• View a recent webinar by Dark Reading and Palo Alto Networks to learn how outcome-driven threat intelligence can drive automated prevention and operationalized action.
• Watch the Security Lifecycle Review video to learn how an SLR can examine your network traffic, provide a comprehensive report on vulnerabilities in your organization’s security posture and recommend actions for remediation.
