There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Malware is a growing threat to the information and intellectual property of organizations as techniques from attackers become increasingly sophisticated. This course will provide a foundational understanding of malicious software, how malware has shaped the global cyber security landscape, and its future impact. Discussions and hands-on exercises will demonstrate malware analysis processes and their complexities as well as illustrate how to appropriately size, design, and build an analytical capability best suited for your organization. Participants will prepare an analysis test-bed and analyze multiple malware samples. Think like a Black Hat, exploring advanced techniques and tools, including data exfiltration and stealthy operation, to understand the tactics of malware authors.
