Overview

Our feature today is a page we just launched, the Glossary: Terms and Definitions page at https://isc.sans.edu/glossary.html! This page allows for browsing and list filtering of Computer and Security-related terms and definitions. There is also an API  at https://isc.sans.edu/api/#glossary which I'll also detail below.

We will soon be adding a Suggest a New Term or Definition form where you can contribute your thoughts to the list.

Features

Overview - https://isc.sans.edu/glossary.html#overview

Description of page sections, API and displays current number of Terms in the system.

List of Terms - https://isc.sans.edu/glossary.html#terms

Text box will dynamically filter the multi-column list to terms that contain what you enter. For example, if you start typing 'by' the list will be restricted to terms such as 'byte' and 'gethostbyaddr'. Delete characters you've typed to expand list back to all terms.

Clicking the term will jump down to the matching Term and Definition section.

List of Definitions - https://isc.sans.edu/glossary.html#definitions

A heading row with the Alpha-numeric preface is above each section. The quick links under the title at the top of the page contains number and letter links to each header section such as https://isc.sans.edu/glossary.html#A.

The term and definition list alphabetically. Keep an eye out for a "Share Term" and "Suggest a definition" link soon.

Glossary API - https://isc.sans.edu/api/#glossary

The API outputs all terms and definitions by default. https://isc.sans.edu/api/glossary

You can add a partial or full word to the url to "search" for a matching term. https://isc.sans.edu/api/glossary/data

Enter comment here... a fake TeamViewer page, and that page led to a different type of malware. This week's infection involved a downloaded JavaScript (.js) file that led to Microsoft Installer packages (.msi files) containing other script that used free or open source programs.
distribute malware. Even if the URL listed on the ad shows a legitimate website, subsequent ad traffic can easily lead to a fake page. Different types of malware are distributed in this manner. I've seen IcedID (Bokbot), Gozi/ISFB, and various information stealers distributed through fake software websites that were provided through Google ad traffic. I submitted malicious files from this example to VirusTotal and found a low rate of detection, with some files not showing as malware at all. Additionally, domains associated with this infection frequently change. That might make it hard to detect.
