Applied Network Defense | YARA for Security Analysts

Learn to use YARA to detect malware, triage compromised systems, and perform threat intelligence research. Detecting malicious elements within files is a core security skill for incident responders, SOC analysts, threat intelligence analysts, malware analysts, and detection engineers alike. There are different ways to accomplish that goal, but none are more flexible or widely used as YARA. YARA is a pattern-matching tool used to help identify and classify malware in a variety of scenarios. By writing YARA rules, security practitioners can detect whether malware exists within a group of files, triage a potentially compromised host, or identify common elements between samples to bolster threat intelligence.
