Experts Talk. Why master YARA: from routine to extreme threat hunting cases

ABOUT THE WEBINAR

YARA is often called the “pattern matching Swiss knife for malware researchers and everyone else”, and for a good reason: YARA detection rules help find malware, exploits and 0-days that couldn’t be found by other methods.

How could YARA benefit you and your organization? What are the ingredients of a good YARA rule? How can you use YARA to find unknown threats and anomalies?

Join our online session with Costin Raiu, Director of Kaspersky’s Global Research an Analysis Team (GReAT) and Juan Andres Guerrero-Saade, Adjunct Professor of Strategic Studies, Johns Hopkins SAIS, and moderated by Dan Demeter, senior security researcher at Kaspersky’s GReAT – cybersecurity experts who have been using YARA more than 6 years— for their insights and tips on using it for threat hunting.
