Malicious PowerShell: Attack sequences that use Microsoft’s PowerShell, a command-line and scripting tool, are becoming more common because of their capacity to transmit viruses throughout a network.
• What You Need to Know: PowerShell is a command-line tool that uses the .NET framework to let users and system administrators modify system settings and run computer tasks. Due to the availability of a wide range of tools and versatility, the command-line interface (CLI) is a widely used shell and scripting language. Unfortunately, bad actors have also become aware of PowerShell’s advantages, particularly its capacity to run covertly on a system as a code endpoint and carry out operations in the background.
• How the Attack Happens: Given that PowerShell is a scripting language installed on most workplace computers and that most firms do not monitor code endpoints, the rationale behind this kind of assault is obvious. Malicious scripts can run or execute without the need for malware. This implies that the hacker can conveniently carry out their nefarious intent whenever they want while escaping executable file inspection. Access is simple, and penetration of the system by attackers is even simpler.
• Where the Attack Comes From: This is a more sophisticated assault than the others, and a skilled hacker often conducts it (versus an amateur who might resort to brute-force attacks). They always take a discrete approach, are good at covering their tracks, and understand how to move laterally via a network.

Key features of Spies in the Bits and Bytes include:
• In-depth Analysis of Cyber Threats: Unveiling the latest and most sophisticated cyber threats facing our world today.
