In this tutorial, we explore how FLARE-FLOSS helps us recover hidden and obfuscated strings from a Windows PE file. We begin by setting up FLOSS and the MinGW-w64 cross-compiler. We synthesize a small malware-like executable that hides strings using multiple techniques, including static strings, stack-built strings, tight strings, and XOR-decoded strings. After that, we compare […] The post A Coding Implementation to Recover Hidden Malware IOCs with FLARE-FLOSS Beyond Classic Strings Analysis appeared first on MarkTechPost.

Echoing concerns from other security experts, Orange Cyberdefense (OC) recently warned that employees have become the biggest security threat faced by business.  Now, in the latest illustration of its ongoing security response, Apple is putting new protections in place in macOS 26.4 that should help – but employee education remains critical as hackers turn to complex, multi-stage, social engineering attacks to infest systems with malware. Your people are your weakness The data tells its own story. OC explains: Employees account for 57% of all security incidents and 45% of these incidents come when workers bypass or ignore security policies by, for example, using unapproved tools.  Attackers are actively searching for and exploiting those kinds of policy workarounds, seeking weaknesses in commonly used, but unapproved, tools. Users really should educate themselves. While companies can put some mitigations in place using device management and policy controls to constrain app use and down
