🎬 How can we analyse a Windows system for malware while making sure to preserve crucial forensic evidence?
Join me in the 1st part of this three-part Threat Hunting series, where I delve into Process Explorer, showing how we can further expand our DFIR arsenal by fine-tuning this Sysinternals tool.

⚠️ Bring Your Own Installer (BYOI) is a technique where threat actors use legit installers to run #malware. Those are the 3 core stages of a BYOI attack:
1. Pick a trusted, signed installer
2. Drop malicious DLLs/scripts in the same folder
3. Run the installer → payload hijacks execution & evades AV

Threat actors don’t wait for patch cycles; they move as soon as vulnerabilities emerge. Embedding KEV (Known Exploited Vulnerabilities) & EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) intel into our workflows helps prioritise #vulnerabilities based on active threat #exploitation, not just #CVSS scores.

Not malware or LOLBIN — it was NVIDIA GeForce Experience (v3.28), calling rxdiag.dll RxDiagSetRuntimeMessagePump function.
