This week’s show is sponsored by VMRay, a sandbox-based malware analyser. You throw a sample into it and it spits out all sorts of useful information. Rather than having one of its own staff in this week’s sponsor slot, VMRay has put forward one of its customers instead. Expel is a managed security provider, and it is making heavy use of VMRay to do malware analysis. Tyler Fornes is a Senior Detection and Response Analyst at Expel and he joined me to talk about how they’re using VMRay to actually make life easier.
Links to everything that we discussed are below and you can follow Patrick or Adam on Twitter if that’s your thing.
