We are immensely pleased to announce the first of AttackIQ’s “malware emulation attack graphs.” We broke down real-world malware into its logical steps to understand the adversary’s behavior. We then use our attack graph methodology to arrange the malware into its component tactics, techniques, and procedures. Using the malware emulation attack graph, defenders can emulate a specific strain of malware to test and validate their security controls. Take a look.
