Description

Cisco Talos has recently written about malware families that go open-source, sometimes of their own volition, and sometimes because of leaks. In the case of SapphireStealer, we still don't really know why someone posted this malware to GitHub, but now that it's out there, we can't put it back in a box. Edmund Brumaghin, who assisted with Talos' research and blog post on SapphireStealer, joins Talos Takes this week to discuss this information-stealer. Edmund talks about the goals that someone has by making malware open-source, how that affects detection and what makes SapphireStealer unique among infostealers.
