(1/n) WinDbg finally released outside the store, and no more "Preview"! Ecstatic to see my old team hit this milestone! It's come so far since @aluhrs13 and I started the "WinDbgNext" project so many years ago. learn.microsoft.com/en-us/wi…

Domain fronting is hands-down the weirdest thing. I think a lot of blue team (including myself) would have heard the term over the years without looking into it. 1/4
If I'm reading this config right, it's a #CobaltStrike using the @nytimes content API as a C2: gist.github.com/usualsuspect… dropped by fake @GoIvanti VPN updater ISO: virustotal.com/gui/file/568e… ISO -> .NET stuff -> custom loader -> reflective loader beacon

I think it depends on what you want the EDR. Personally, I have never looked at an EDR as a source for detection but a source of telemetry. I see vendors say they detect "x", but I have always used that as one of my detections for a given operation versus the sole detection.

That said, the way meterpreter does TLS is strange, so you can do detection on how it behaves. However, again... this is defaults, you can change the TLS behavior in your payload options and advanced options.

IMO, BYOD is *the most expensive* cost savings measure ever.
Lots of CISOs out there rethinking their BYOD policies today. Even if you aren't, your business partners are and you should be expecting TPRM questions about it. #LastPass
