github.com/VirusTotal/y... This fixes an issue with certain header constraints that you really should update for. There are other nice bug fixes and features too, but the header constraints is a big one.

There are only two file formats: disguised zips and renamed text files. JSON? Text. EPUB? Zip. CSV? Text. EXE? Zip. SVG? Text. DOCX? Zip. ICS? Text. APK? Zip.

Heading to Denver for #FIRSTCON26 next week? Stop by the @volexity.com booth to see a demo of Volcano! We’ll show you how memory analysis with Volcano uncovers advanced threat actors and helps rapidly resolve your investigations. #DFIR #FIRSTCON

Our new blog post details our investigation into how a compromised MSP led to at least one of its customers being compromised, including deployment of the BRICKSTORM malware on multiple edge devices.

@volexity.com has published details from an incident response engagement in September 2025 involving multiple #BRICKSTORM variants deployed by a threat actor that Volexity tracks as VerdantBamboo. [1/4]

@volexity.com Volcano Server & Volcano One v26.04.27 adds memory analysis for arm64 Windows, memory-only .NET assemblies, SRUM database, Linux systemd units, history & timers from RAM. #memoryforensics #memoryanalysis #dfir

Memory-only malware leaves no trace on the file system and is commonly used by threat actors ranging from criminal organizations to ransomware operators to APT groups. In our Volatility 3 training, students gain deep hands on experience analyzing such threats: memoryanalysis.net/courses-malw...

github.com/VirusTotal/y... - congrats to all involved! These new features are really great!

High five to everyone who has suffered from anxiety, burnout, and depression without even once stealing 0-days from their employer and selling them to the Russians. www.zetter-zeroday.com/trenchant-ex...

The complete and utter failure of the metaverse is a reminder [...] that quite often these oligarchs quite simply cannot relate to real people, don’t know how or why people use their products, and very often have no idea what they’re doing www.404media.co/rip-metavers...

📣 #PIVOTcon26 Agenda is here 🤟 We are thrilled to announce the lineup for this year's edition! 2⃣ days and 19 talks from leading #ThreatResearch experts. The agenda link is in the first comment👇, and the talks and speakers are in the thread.🧵 #CTI #ThreatIntel 1/15

@volexity.com recently released GoResolver v1.4, bringing significant updates to our #opensource tool for recovering symbol data from obfuscated Go binaries. This release is available on GitHub: github.com/volexity/GoR... [1/8]

This is a bad take. You can’t counter far right narratives on a platform that is designed to amplify only those narratives. Politicians should set the example. And journalist should get off of it too.

SOS returns to Brussels on October 22, 2026! As the geopolitical landscape rifts, hybrid threats continue to adapt & evolve. We provide a forum for observers of state-aligned sabotage, espionage, and more to share research with an action-oriented community. Stay tuned for more announcements!

Reminder that the #PIVOTcon2026 CFP closes this Friday, February 6. Get those papers in. We want to see you at @pivotcon.bsky.social in Malaga! 😎

github.com/VirusTotal/y... - 1.11.0 is out! Lots of new features, modules and bug fixes. Read the release notes and congrats to Victor and the contributors!

Microsoft is so fucking stupid. Microsoft renamed Microsoft Office to Microsoft 365 Copilot App I'm not joking

Volexity Volcano Server & Volcano One v25.12.18 adds 300+ YARA rules, full parsing of Windows prefetch and Linux cron jobs, inline syscall hooking detection, and 5-level page table support. [1/3]

Narrator Voice: And so thousands of infosec people looking for relevance and attention logged into VirusTotal looking for samples uploaded from Venezuela in the last year.

finally, we're living through precedented times

Some phishers have taken inspiration from Russian cyber-espionage group UTA0355 and are using a technique that tricks users into sharing their OAuth material in a web page (UAT0355 did it via email replies) pushsecurity.com/blog/consent...

A study in the evolution of SVR cyberespionage tradecraft

@volexity.com tracks a variety of threat actors abusing Device Code & OAuth authentication workflows to phish credentials, which continue to see success due to creative social engineering. Our latest blog post details Russian threat actor UTA0355’s campaigns impersonating European security events.

On the plus side, everytime there's a Cloudflare outage 1000s of threat actors around the world have their malware C2 go down for a few hours.

Weekly summary is out.. ctoatncsc.substack.com/p/cto-at-ncs...

i heard my kids singing about "APT"s and i was sorely disappointed www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekr2...

Thanks to @xorhex for an interesting discussion that is worth sharing here. I knew I read this somewhere but here's a fun thing you can do in YARA-X: 2 of ($a*, $b*, 3 of ($c*)) This is documented but not widely known: virustotal.github.io/yara-x/docs/...

This was an interesting one to work on! tldr: Chinese aligned actor uses LLM to empower their malware development, target gathering, and phishing operation. Goes wrong and starts randomly including pornographic material and other random files/info. www.volexity.com/blog/2025/10...

APT meets GPT: @volexity.com #threatintel is tracking #threatactor UTA0388's spear phishing campaigns against targets in North America, Europe & Asia, appearing to use LLMs to assist their ops. Letting #AI run your espionage operations? What could go wrong?
