Level: Technical

Abstract:
The speaker will go through the process of reversing two samples of live malware: the first is a Windows ransomware, the second is an Android malware. Moreover, the speaker will demonstrate the tooling and resources necessary to identify, handle and understand a malware sample. The idea here is to establish the methodology of how to approach a malware sample rather than focus on the technicalities of the platform.

Furthermore, there will be 2-3 write-ups posted on the speaker’s GitHub repo and website that demonstrate the entire walkthrough of the reversing process for both samples.
