0:00A 57-page guide to reverse-engineering Hyper-V.

0:05Alexandre Borges launched the fifth installment.

0:08It explored Hyper-V exploitation and escape.

0:12The research covered vulnerability discovery in hypervisors.

0:16Then execution techniques and code flows examined.

0:19Escape mechanisms for privilege escalation thoroughly analyzed.

0:24Finally stealth and evasion techniques explored.

0:29No threat actor: this was defensive research.

0:334 indicators to hunt: 1 domain, 2 URLs and 1 file name.

0:394 ATT&CK techniques, from resource development to stealth.

0:441 step now: No vulnerability or exploitation is stated in the source.

0:519 detection rules, in SPL, KQL and Sigma.

0:56Threadlinqs. The unified security engineering platform.
