Why is Log4J still so successful? | Guest Etay Maor

from Cyber Work · host Infosec

Today on Cyber Work, I talked with Etay Maor, Chief Security Strategist with Cato Networks. Etay is a founding member of the Cato Cyber Threats Research Lab, or CTRL — see what they did there? — and he joins me to talk about their first CTRL report on attack patterns and methods. We’re going to talk about the most common attack vectors, why Log4J still rules the roost even against newer and flashier exploits, and we go deep into the many paths you can take to become a threat researcher, threat analyst, reverse engineer, and lots more.
