MS-ISAC Releases Security Event Primer on Malware

The Multi-State Information Sharing & Analysis Center (MS-ISAC) has released a Security Event Primer on Malware. The white paper outlines general malware operations and includes common malware event types and best practice recommendations. An attacker can use malware to gain access to a network, obtain sensitive data, and damage systems.

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) encourages users and administrators to review MS-ISAC’s White Paper: Security Event Primer – Malware, see CISA’s Tip on Protecting Against Malicious Code, and implement the recommended best practices.
