    Aug 5 2025
    Welcome in! You’ve entered, Only Malware in the Building. Join us each month to sip tea and solve mysteries about today’s most interesting threats. Your host is ⁠⁠⁠Selena Larson⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠Proofpoint⁠⁠⁠ intelligence analyst and host of their podcast ⁠⁠⁠DISCARDED⁠⁠⁠. Inspired by the residents of a building in New York’s exclusive upper west side, Selena is joined by her co-hosts ⁠⁠⁠N2K Networks⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Dave Bittner⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠Keith Mularski⁠⁠, former FBI cybercrime investigator and now Chief Global Ambassador at ⁠⁠Qintel⁠⁠. Being a security researcher is a bit like being a detective: you gather clues, analyze the evidence, and consult the experts to solve the cyber puzzle. On this episode, our three hosts discuss several articles covering a new wave of social engineering attacks tied to the so-called Contagious Interview campaign. In this operation, threat actors linked to North Korea are reportedly posing as tech recruiters to trick job seekers into downloading malware. The discussion highlights updates to two malware strains—BeaverTail and InvisibleFerret—that have been retooled with cross-platform capabilities and new data theft features, raising fresh concerns about how targeted individuals could become a gateway into larger organizational networks.

  • The RMM protocol: Remote, risky, and ready to strike.
    Jul 1 2025
    Please enjoy this encore of Only Malware in the Building. Welcome in! You’ve entered, Only Malware in the Building. Join us each month to sip tea and solve mysteries about today’s most interesting threats. Your host is ⁠⁠Selena Larson⁠⁠, ⁠⁠Proofpoint⁠⁠ intelligence analyst and host of their podcast ⁠⁠DISCARDED⁠⁠. Inspired by the residents of a building in New York’s exclusive upper west side, Selena is joined by ⁠⁠N2K Networks⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Dave Bittner⁠⁠ and our newest co-host, ⁠Keith Mularski⁠, former FBI cybercrime investigator and now Chief Global Ambassador at ⁠Qintel⁠. Being a security researcher is a bit like being a detective: you gather clues, analyze the evidence, and consult the experts to solve the cyber puzzle. On this episode, our hosts discuss the growing trend of cybercriminals using legitimate remote monitoring and management (RMM) tools in email campaigns as a first-stage payload. They explore how these tools are being leveraged for data theft, financial fraud, and lateral movement within networks. With the decline of traditional malware delivery methods, including loaders and botnets, the shift toward RMMs marks a significant change in attack strategies. Tune in to learn more about this evolving threat landscape and how to stay ahead of these tactics.
