Smoke Loader | Malware Dropper | Malware Sample Report Analysis
This is another malware report analysis and this time we are looking at Smoke Loader. Smoke Loader has been developed for Russian hackers and is sold on underground hacker and criminal forums. This malware acts as a dropper that drops other malicious malware onto a device. Smoke Loader's job is to obfuscate and avoid detection while deploying other malware.

WHAT
what-is-ewhoring-internet-scam-gaining
In today's video, I will explain what eWhoring is. This is a scam that is gathering an ever growing community of people trying to get in on this crime. The low arrest rates and potential for profit is making eWhoring attractive to criminals with limited skills. I came across this term last year and wanted to find out more about it. I read a research paper from a UK university that has helped me get an idea about what eWhoring is all about. I also visit a hacker forum in the video to see an example of lots of scammers helping each other with guides and 'packs'. Packs contain images and video footage that can be used for this kind of scam.

For those of you concerned with the audio quality, I have deliberately
dropped the pitch of my voice to mask it. I will not do any work in
front of the camera to protect my identity. The reason for this is
because the content is sensitive and I cannot control who watches my
YouTube and training videos. This is a small channel and production
quality is not crucial for us, but the information is.

I continue my people search with Radaris on the same target Brian P Bladen and this time I get more information. Radaris is a universal public directory and holds a lot of records about people including social media profiles. I had to blur the information I found for legal reasons and privacy.

SOCIA
social-engineering-create-a-fake
In this video, I will show you how to create a fake identity on social media. We will look at Facebook for this example. I used Fake Name Generator to create the fake identity and then created a Facebook profile with this and a ProtonMail account.
This video will give you some tips on how to create a fake identity on social media and a fake Facebook account. You can do the same for other accounts like Twitter and Instagram. You can use a fake identity to keep your real life separate from your internet life.

CyberGhost - I had no problems with this VPN and highly recommend. They
are based in Romania where the laws on privacy are not so strict.
Not truly anonymous but good for privacy.

LOCKB

This video is an explanation of the current and growing threat, LockBit ransomware. LockBit is a crypto virus, seeking financial payout for decryption of locked files. I made a slight mistake in the video by calling LockBit a ransom-as-a-service which should be ransomware-as-a-service, RaaS.

RED T
red-teams-the-digitized-enemy-threat
Red teams need expert knowledge on the latest threats out there. They call it threat intelligence and there are websites that can assist this. Websites like Mitre Attack are threat intelligence services that report the latest TTPs used by threat actors. TTPs stand for tactics, techniques and procedures.
Red teams analyse the TTPs of a known threat group and can emulate them for an engagement with a client. Clients (businesses and organisations) want to prepare for an attack and red teams are hired to act like the bad guys. And so, the red team members need to know how to act like the threat group and use similar tools, attack vectors and malware.

TAILS
tails-os-demonstration-(using-a-virtual
This video is another demonstration of TAILS and will replace my old video. This will be the new demo for the digital privacy and security course on the learning platform.
I use a virtual machine to show the features of TAILS. However, I recommend that you install TAILS on a USB stick if you intend to download files from the dark web. I would also use a USB if you are visiting websites that you are unsure of. Trust is a big issue when you are visiting the dark web!
Here is Mental Outlaw's video on installing TAILS for the ultra paranoid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5Lv_HXICpo
