Threat actors are increasing their use of fileless malware for one simple reason: most organizations aren't prepared to detect it. Education is the first step in determining what threat these new attacks pose and what you can do to detect and stop fileless malware attacks.
Read this paper to understand:
- How fileless malware is quickly evolving to avoid detection
- The techniques currently employed to prevent infection
- The strategies security teams need to consider when determining how to stop future fileless breaches
Fileless malware is a significant and increasing threat. While awareness of that fact is growing, there’s still confusion among security practitioners and vendors about the nature of the threat and the requirements for a successful defense strategy. Part of that confusion is because most of the security methods, solutions and routines used to detect and prevent cybersecurity threats remain firmly grounded in addressing file-based attacks.
