Pour yourself a cup of coffee and read this excellent new research on Latrodectus, in a collaboration with our friends at Team Cymru S2 Threat Research.

You may have asked yourself lately, "what the heck happened to IcedID?" Well, out crawled Latrodectus. (Don’t google the name if you hate spiders).

Shoutout to Kelsey Merriman and @Myrtus, the best collaborators and brilliant researchers.

IOCs and Emerging Threats signatures included.

Goodbye to another year! 🥂

Here are some of my favorite things from 2023:
 
1. Collaborating on fun research and building our cybercrime intelligence program while working with some of the best in the business including coauthoring intelligence reports with Joe Wise, Tim Kromphardt, Kelsey Merriman, @Myrtus, Bryan Campbell, and Tommy Madjar.

My fav project this year was an in depth report on the cybercrime ecosystem TTP changes https://www.proofpoint.com/sites/default/files/misc/pfpt-us-threat-research-2023-05-12-cybercrime-experimentation.pdf
