eBPF lets you hook directly into the Linux kernel to catch attacks — privilege escalation, reverse shells, suspicious syscalls — as they happen. Here is how to use bpftrace and BCC tools to see exactly what an attacker does the moment they do it.
Criminal crews are using LLM pipelines to generate hyper-personalized phishing emails at scale — each one unique, each one cheap to produce. Here’s what the attack infrastructure actually looks like and what defenders can detect right now.
Volt Typhoon proved that attackers hide in normal-looking traffic. Wireshark lets you find them. Here’s how to use display filters, reconstruct credentials, and spot exfiltration using real packet analysis techniques.
AI-powered cyberattacks in 2026 are chaining LLMs, mutating malware, and exploiting prompt injection to hit faster than human defenders can respond. Here are the real techniques — with live command examples — and the defenses that are actually holding the line.
AI-powered mutation engines can rewrite malware payloads between every deployment, defeating signature-based AV entirely. Learn how the technique works and see the behavioral detection rules that actually catch it.
Rootkits like Symbiote and Diamorphine hide processes and backdoors at the kernel level, making standard OS tools useless for detection. This post walks through real chkrootkit and rkhunter output, explains what each warning means, and shows you how to cross-check /proc directly to catch what hooked syscalls try to hide.
Attackers routinely plant cron jobs to survive reboots and IR cleanup — yet most teams never audit scheduled tasks. Learn how to detect malicious cron entries, sweep your fleet for common IOCs, and lock down cron access before the next compromise.
