À propos de l?auteur

David Álvarez Pérez is a senior malware analyst and reverse engineer. He has more than 12 years of experience in IT, having worked on his own antivirus product, and later as a malware analyst. He started working for a company that mostly reverse-engineered banking malware, and he helped to automate the process. After that, he joined the critical malware department of an antivirus company and then moved to a Galician research center, while doing his malware-related PhD at the University of Vigo. He has also hunted vulnerabilities in software products like Microsoft's Windows 10 and the National Security Agency's Ghidra project. David is currently working as a senior malware analyst at Gen Digital Inc.

Ravikant Tiwari is a senior security researcher at Microsoft, with over a decade of expertise in malware analysis and reverse-engineering. His professional background includes tenures at prominent cybersecurity firms such as McAfee, FireEye, and Acronis, where he specialized in safeguarding users and systems from malicious threats and developing innovative protection mechanisms against advanced malware. He has authored numerous blogs and articles on threat research and holds a patent for designing novel detection mechanisms for malicious crypto miners.
