[Big News] I started as CS Assistant Professor @ Texas A&M @TAMUEngineering I'm looking for new collaborators and new students to keep researching malware and systems security. Get in touch! engineering.tamu.edu/cse/pro…
The video of my talk "You Can See Me but You Can’t Track Me: Evading Behavioral Detection with Distributed Malware and Covert Synchronization Channels" is online: youtube.com/watch?v=ucNMhsuM…

🥛 Fairlife has temporarily stopped producing milk in the United States after a ransomware attack disrupted some of the company’s production systems.
Coca-Cola, which owns Fairlife, says law enforcement has been notified and an investigation is underway. The company says the attack has not affected the quality or safety of its products, and Canadian operations remain unaffected. It is not yet clear when U.S. production will resume.

We had the pleasure of hosting @EdwardRaffML @CrowdStrike at the Botacin's Lab to discuss #malware #research with our PhD students. A pic to record this great time!
Another semester, another edition of my course on detecting threats (mostly malware) with ML comes to an end. Check the latest news here.
