Threat hunting through Windows event logs: Introducing DeepBlueCLI v2
- Eric Conrad
- Monday, November 27th, 7:00pm - 8:00pm
Recent malware attacks leverage PowerShell for post exploitation. Why? No EXE for antivirus or HIPS to squash, nothing saved to the filesystem, sites that use application whitelisting allow PowerShell, and little to no default logging.
Event logs continue to be the best source to centrally hunt malice in a Windows environment. Virtually all malware may be detected (including the latest PowerShell-fueled post exploitation) via event logs, after making small tweaks the logging configuration. DeepBlueCLI will go toe-to-toe with the latest attacks: this talk will explore the evidence malware leaves behind, leveraging Windows command line auditing (now natively available in Windows 7+) and PowerShell logging.
