Capacity building for Malware Analysts
Dear Listers, With the increasing spate of malware attacks, we have come up with the below initiative. Malware (malicious software) is mainly developed and operated by cyber criminals. Malware attacks are increasing in both frequency and sophistication, thus posing a serious threat to essential services and infrastructure on our continent. To help address this issue, @iLabAfrica IT Security Center is running an introductory course on malware analysis that will provide an understanding of malware, how malware it works, how it has shaped the global cyber security landscape, and the technical skills required to analyze a malware sample. Participants will also learn basic techniques to uncover malware features to support the procedures in a forensic investigation process. Please refer to the poster below for more details. We also did a free webinar to set the stage for the course.
