"My first 6 months in I.T Security and is TrickBot developing new tricks?" - Geoff O Rourke

Given this is my first Cork Sec talk, I am going to briefly introduce myself to everyone and give a run down on my first six months working in the cyber-security field as a Threat Researcher in Cylance.

Also I am going to deep dive into the modular banking trojan TrickBot. The malware which has been in the wild since 2016 and even now in 2018 has a trick or two up its sleeve. I will go through how the malware works, why it is so damaging on both business and personal levels and what makes me think the bot might be adding a ransom module in the near future.

This talk is by Robert Lambert, an independent contractor, who has worked with the design, deployment and security of large scale systems and security in the IT and Telecoms sectors.
