Overview
Explore a groundbreaking 35-minute Black Hat conference talk on Rope, a novel covert distributed execution technique for malware. Delve into how distributed malware concepts challenge behavioral detection by AV and EDR solutions by dispersing malicious execution across multiple processes. Examine the evolution from modular malware designs to more advanced approaches that split individual components into chunks. Discover the limitations of existing methods, including their reliance on detectable features and potential conflicts with OS hardening measures. Learn about Rope's innovative approach to bypassing behavioral detection through distributed ROP-driven execution. Gain insights from security researchers Daniele Cono D'Elia and Lorenzo Invidia as they present this cutting-edge technique for evading modern security systems.
