The Security box, podcast 260 for November 5, 2025

Sorry this podcast is so late. I merged the files on Thursday and never got the files up here. I may have dated the cast for Tjhursday and its still not here. I'm fixing that now.Welcome to the Security box, podcast 260. This is the first time we've done show notes since NCSAM, but that's OK. On this program, we're going to run through the landscape as well as have another interesting topic on EDR stuff. For those who are not familiar with EDR, and you're joining us for the first time, EDR stands for end point detection and response. This is part of some Antivirus tools. There is malware out there that disables this technology and we've been talking about this for quite awhile, even though we've not uploaded to the TSB directory in quite while. The article this time comes from Bleeping Computer and is titled New">https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/new-edr-freeze-tool-uses-windows-wer-to-suspend-security-software/">New EDR-Freeze tool uses Windows WER to suspend security software which caught Nick's attention. If I remember, Windows WER stands for the "Windows Error Reporting" tool. So if this is the case, this is going to be bad. We'll break this down and we'll see what else the team is going to want to cover. Thanks so much for listening, and make it a great day!If you'd like to support our efforts on what this podcast is doing, you can feel free to donate">http://www.jaredrimer.net/donations.html">donate to the network, subscribing">www.986themix.com/mailman/listinfo/thesecuritybox_986themix.com">subscribing to the security box discussion list or sending us a note through contact information throughout the podcast.
