Webinar takeaway: How to Cover C&C in the MITRE ATT&CK Matrix

My key takeaways

• Modern threats are almost impossible to detect by signatures or heuristics
• command and control channels (C2) now are often using common encryption like https so content analysis is not an option either
• Well known and legit websites are abused as C2 channels like Google Mail or O365
• Even CDNs are used as C2 channels and they can’t filter out beacons due to the amount of traffic in the network
• Monitoring network anomalies with tools like Passer or RITA might show C2 beacons
• the MITRE framework has elements to test for data exfiltration
