In the past, I’ve explained how security products combine sensors and throttles with threat intelligence to protect users and devices from attack. I’ve also outlined how the evolution of software, including increased complexity and a focus on privacy, have made it harder than ever for sensors and throttles to function effectively, leading to security andContinue reading “Participatory Extensible Security”

Defensive Technology: Antimalware Scan Interface (AMSI)
Endpoint security software faces a tough challenge — it needs to be able to rapidly distinguish between desired and unwanted behavior with few false positives and false negatives, and attackers work hard to obfuscate (or cloak) their malicious code to prevent detection by security scanners. To maximize protection, security software wants visibility into attack chainsContinue reading “Defensive Technology: Antimalware Scan Interface (AMSI)”
