I am very excited to announce that my @volatilityfoundation.org 3 workshop with David McDonald and Pierre Breton was accepted for @defcon.bsky.social this summer!!

Great conversations at #FIRSTCON26 so far! Come say hello to the @volexity.com team at Booth 7 & see how to rapidly resolve your investigations and find what other tools are missing. #DFIR #FIRSTCON #memoryforensics

Memory forensics is a required technique to detect and respond to modern malware. Come see Volcano in action at FIRST next week to learn how memory forensics can be applied at true enterprise scale.

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.

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...

SAVE THE DATE!! BSides Memphis will be hosted at Epicenter Memphis on October 3rd, 2026! More info to come on tickets, CFP, Sponsors, ect. please share so the local community knows this is happening!

Countdown is real ⌛️ Next week‼️ #ThreatResearch community gathers in Málaga 🇪🇸 Time to remind our PIVOTcon song: soundcloud.com/argonix/pivo... But watch out — it's a banger! #CTI #ThreatIntel #PIVOTcon26

I am excited to announce that I will be speaking at BSides Nashville on May 15th. Be sure to attend to see all the latest Volatility 3 (@volatilityfoundation.org) plugins against the most sophisticated and devastating malware from the wild! bsidesnash.org

We are excited to announce the First Place winner of the 2025 #Volatility #PluginContest is: Daniel Baier for XRFM Inspector See the full Contest Results in our blog post: volatilityfoundation.org/the-2025-vol... Congrats to all winners & thank you to all participants! #DFIR #memoryforensics

@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.

@volexity.com has continued to see nation-state threat actors use AI + LLMs to assist in cyber attacks. Our recent research on a Chinese APT threat actor (UTA0388) using AI in its operation was something @stevenadair.bsky.social recently discussed with the @wsj.com.

We had a great day yesterday at #FTSCon 2025! FTSCon Week continues with @joegrand.bsky.social's Hardware Hacking Basics + #Volatility Malware & Memory Forensics training with @attrc.bsky.social, Michael Ligh + Dave Lassalle.

The CFP for our 2nd annual From the Source event is now open! The event includes two tracks, the first for Makers of open source DFIR tools and the second for Hunters who have performed the most interesting investigations of the last year. volatilityfoundation.org/announcing-f...

Our highly popular and technical training, "Malware and Memory Forensics with Volatility", has been fully converted to @volatilityfoundation.org 3 and significantly updated, including many new sections and 8 new, in-depth labs. Available online & in VA in October memoryanalysis.net/courses-malw...

I tried to strike a balance in this story between the dangers I was hearing about AI-assisted and "vibe coded" software and the hard, cold reality that there's probs no going back and this is going to be (if it isn't already) the "new normal" for huge chunks of software development. Check it out!

I will be showing off Volatility 3 during my talk on Wednesday afternoon at RVASec. Be sure to attend and come say hello if you will be around! rvasec.com/rvasec-14-sp...

I will be speaking at @kernelcon.bsky.social on Fri, Apr 3rd. The talk will cover previously-unreported features of the sedexp Linux malware found in the wild - including loading of a memory-only rootkit! Talk will cover how the rootkit was discovered & how to analyze with @volatilityfoundation.org

We are excited to present our #PIVOTcon25 #Keynote speaker: Jackie Burns Koven! She is Head of Cyber Threat Intelligence at @chainalysis.bsky.social where her team tracks the wallets of those who scam, steal, and extort for cryptocurrency 💰💸🦹 #CTI #ThreatIntel (1/4)

Six days away! I am very much looking forward to speaking in San Diego next weekend!

The sedexp Linux malware was disclosed in late 2024. In my talk at @kernelcon.bsky.social, I will present my own deep dive of the malware, including many parts that have not been made public, such as loading of a memory-only rootkit. Be sure to attend for a teardown with @volatilityfoundation.org 3!

The 2005 DFRWS Windows memory forensics challenge spawned a generation of DFIR researchers, and the 2008 Linux challenge is what led me to @volatilityfoundation.org. The 25th anniversary event will be held in Chicago this summer and promises to be an incredible time: dfrws.org/dfrws-jubile...

On March 29th, I will be speaking at @bsidessd.bsky.social on Volatility 3, including all its new features and plugins. Be sure to attend to catch a sneak peak at the new framework before the major release later this Spring! www.bsidessd.org #DFIR #infosec
