Learn to detect macOS command and control (C2) communication through statistical analysis in this conference talk that reveals how malicious activity leaves detectable traces in system logs. Explore common C2 tactics used by attackers and discover statistical techniques for identifying suspicious patterns such as consistent callbacks and irregular timing variations (jitter). Master practical implementation methods using OSQuery and Filebeat for effective log collection and analysis. Gain insights into how statistical shadows can expose stealthy malicious communications that traditional detection methods might miss. Understand the methodology for transforming raw log data into actionable security intelligence through data science approaches applied to macOS security monitoring.
