Plagg and the Butterfly Costume Outtakes: Ch 7

Plagg is willing to do a lot in order to get more cheese. When he’s spotted one too many times en route to the kitchen, he decides that a disguise is in order. One purple costume later, and Plagg is free to flit down to the kitchen without people thinking that he’s a rat.

And then he gets caught.

PATBC: (1) (2) (3) (OT:1) (4) (5) (6) (OT: 2) (7) (OT: 3) (OT: 4) (OT: 5) (8) (OT: 6)

(AO3) (FF.net)

These days, it seemed that bad luck dogged Gabriel Agreste's footsteps, and he was fairly certain that he wasn't even being (that) dramatic in saying that.

First it had been his eye injury and that strange kwami in the house. Then the roof of his lair sprung a leak, right over where he always stood. One of the buttons for his elevator broke, and he wasted an entire day trying to fix it before discovering that one of the pieces had gone missing. The window shutters jammed partway open, letting more than a few butterflies escape while he tried to fix it (but at least no one in the streets below seemed to notice anything). His phone battery suddenly stopped charging properly. A fabric order didn't submit properly. Money had mysteriously gone missing from his wallet while he was out at a doctor's appointment to check on his still-healing eye. His elevator broke down with him on it, trapping him in a very tight place for several hours, and after he was finally freed Gabriel discovered that he had somehow gotten a virus on his computer and it had completely wiped out all of his files with the high-definition scans of the scrolls and the Miraculous book and deleted his bookmarks of the sites he had found with legends of what he thought might be past Miraculous holders. That wouldn't have been a huge deal, but somehow he had misplaced the flash drive with all of his backup scans.

At least he still had the hard copies to work with. He had been doing most of his (failed) translation attempts with one of the scrolls, and at least he still had that, not that he had really been focusing on that for a while.

Still, he had raged, fed up by the entire day. In a fit of paranoia, he demanded that Nathalie review the security camera footage. He found it hard to believe that all of his trouble was just a coincidence. He couldn't be that unlucky.

There was nothing on any of the security camera tapes. The motion detector that Nathalie had turned on when she left had not gone off. Gabriel had been forced to admit that the virus that had wiped all of the files on his Miraculous account (though thankfully not his design account, though he had that thoroughly backed up just in case something like this happened) was apparently real and was entirely his own fault thanks to him looking at somewhat dodgy websites during the course of his Miraculous research without first ensuring that his anti-malware program was actually on and up-to-date.

In the end, it didn't really matter, Gabriel reminded himself as he unlocked his safe and triple-checked that the books and scrolls were still there. There wasn't a ton of material that had been on the computer that he didn't have elsewhere, so all he had lost was his bookmarks and PDFs of assorted legends that he had found that he had thought might help him recover his wife. Even that wasn't a big deal anymore. He had long since given up the idea of trying to get Emilie back in any way except with the Ladybug and Chat Noir Miraculous, and he had memorized all of the information that he would need to know about that. Besides, he could more or less remember the few bookmarks that he was interested in that were about potential past Miraculous holders and what their powers might be, and if not he could just look them up again.

(With the anti-malware program on, of course. He wasn't going to repeat his past mistakes again.)

Of course, he had to get his computer back first before he could do that.

"Have you gotten the computer cleaned yet?" Gabriel demanded impatiently as he watched Nathalie hover over his computer, frown on her face. As far as he could tell, the virus hadn't affected his design account, but he didn't want to risk it by using his computer again until that virus was wiped from it.

"I've run six different highly-rated anti-malware programs on your computer, and none of them have found anything," Nathalie reported.

Gabriel strode over to her to peer over her shoulder. "So it's clear?"

"Not at all. Whatever virus you got is so new that the programs haven't updates to recognize it yet." Nathalie let out a huff as yet another top-of-the-line computer scan came up empty. "I might need to call in a pro to get your virus cleaned off so you can use the computer again."

Gabriel scowled. Several more hours of work lost, and he couldn't even make good use of his time because the elevator was still not in working condition, since his contractor had several other jobs to work on first.

On top of everything else, Gabriel was still puzzled by the fact that he hadn't been attacked yet. He spent every waking hour of the day (and some non-waking hours as well) paranoid and on edge, waiting for the superheroes to attack.

Nothing. It had been weeks, and still nothing had happened.

By now, Gabriel was fully convinced that Nooroo's assumption was right and it had been the turtle kwami investigating him rather than the cat kwami. He thought that maybe the Turtle holder just hadn't been able to contact Ladybug and Chat Noir, though that didn't exactly make sense considering that he must have given them their Miraculous and should have known where to find them. Perhaps he wanted to investigate Gabriel more first.

Perhaps the Turtle kwami was roaming the halls of the mansion even now, figuring out Gabriel's strengths and weaknesses. The thought made Gabriel uneasy.

Spied on, in his own home. And cameras didn't even record kwamis, which meant that he couldn't try to spot and trap the turtle kwami like that.

"Or perhaps there's been something keeping this Turtle person from contacting the superheroes," Gabriel mused that night before bed as he sipped from a glass of wine. It helped calm his jittery nerves enough for him to sleep, though he didn't drink so much that it might affect his response time should he get attacked. "If he was ill- but unless he was old, he would have recovered by now."

Nooroo swallowed the mouthful of orange he had been chewing on. "Well, if it's still the same person, which it may very well be, he'd be in his...180s, I think?"

Gabriel choked, sending red wine flying out his nose and spraying from his mouth.

"A hundred and eighty? Are you sur- wait, no, humans can't live that long. You've forgotten about the human life span. Surely it's been passed down once or twice since when you remember last."

"Turtles have the gift of longevity," Nooroo said, ignoring the way the wine Gabriel had spat out was dripping off of his face and onto the bed sheets. The kwami had (naturally) managed to dodge every last drop. "And yes, one hundred eighty is old even for a turtle, but that perhaps is because in the olden days, people became suspicious of those who lived too long, so the Turtle miraculous holders tended to pass it on long before they would have died had they kept it."

Gabriel had practically stopped listening now. "So it's possible that he's fallen seriously ill and can't talk to those pests," he mused, even as he wiped his face. "Or perhaps he died, and his bracelet and that pesky kwami was buried with him. But there's no way for me to know for sure, I suppose." Nooroo wouldn't tell him who the Turtle was (or who it had been), Gabriel knew that. His kwami occasionally passed on information when he felt like it, but that information now rarely lined up with what Gabriel really wanted to know, and no amount of bribes or threats would change that.

Perhaps all of his worries were for naught. Perhaps the only person who knew about his supervillain side activities besides Nathalie was far under the ground now, and their kwami unclaimed and inactive. But Gabriel wasn't going to let down his guard, not for one moment.

After all, his enemy could very well be lying in wait, watching for Gabriel to let his guard down so he could attack.

And Gabriel could not- would not- let him win.

Bluehost Review – 7 Pros & 4 Cons of Bluehost (Server Speed Tested!)

Bluehost

https://www.bluehost.com/

Bluehost is a fantastic choice for beginners who want to build their first website for their businesses or blogs. Their onboarding process and automatic WordPress installation makes everything feel very easy to use. They may not provide the best value or service, but their product just works.

If you’re flopping about, unsure whether or not to use Bluehost as your web hosting provider, worry not – you’ve stumbled on to the right page.

Here at Bitcatcha, we’re a little obsessed with web hosting (our doctors say it’s borderline unhealthy).

We’ve gone ahead and gotten ourselves a Bluehost account, run some performance tests on their shared hosting plan, and we’re ready to present to you the most definitive Bluehost review you’ll find on the internet.

A Little Bit About Bluehost

Founded by a very young Matt Heaton and Danny Ashworth all the way back in 2003, Bluehost has been around a LONG time.

They’re practically dinosaurs in the industry, but that ain’t a bad thing – having been around for so long means that they’ve learned a thing or two about web hosting, and are able to provide their users with a kick-ass user experience.

For a web hosting provider that’s known and used by people all over the world, Bluehost has but 1 datacenter, which is located in the US. That datacenter powers all of their clients’ websites, which adds up to a whopping 2 million, and is growing by the thousands each day!

Hot Damn!

They obviously made quite an impression in the market, because, in just 7 short years, they got the attention of web hosting giant Endurance International Group, which proceeded to acquire them into the EIG group of companies.

With the support of EIG, Bluehost managed to substantially grow their once small team to a family that’s 750 people large, allowing them to provide much needed round-the-clock support for their customers!

Not impressive enough for you?

Then check this out – Bluehost is also one of the 3 web hosting providers that are actually recommended by WordPress!

If you’re wondering why that’s impressive, it’s because 30% of sites in the entire world wide web is actually powered by WordPress. In other words, they’re the rock stars of the internet and getting an endorsement from them is similar to getting your workout gear endorsed by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.

Now that you’re acquainted with Bluehost, let’s find out why, in our humble opinion, Bluehost is a pretty strong web hosting provider!

7 Great Reasons To Pick Bluehost!

1. Bluehost Is Surprisingly Easy To Use

If you’ve ever built a website before and used a web hosting service provider with a crappy interface, you’ll understand the pain of logging into the dashboard and… not knowing what to do.

Bluehost surprised us with their onboarding process. After completing the registration process, we logged in to the dashboard and before we knew it, clicked next a few times and then, *poof* magic – WordPress was already installed and ready to go.

But pictures speak a thousand words, so here are some to show you what really went down after logging in.

Bluehost will begin by asking you a series of questions about what kind of site you’ll be creating. Select an option from the drop-down menu, and hit continue. Easy-peasy.

They’ll then ask what kind of site you’ll be creating, whether it’s a blog, e-Commerce site, or a niche website selling poop scented wrapping paper.

Them pesky buggers will want to know more about your site, but worry not, because they have your best interests at heart. Name your site, think of a tagline, and rate your website building level on their noob detector scale.

All you have to do next is pick a theme you like, and then boom, WordPress is automatically installed just like that! No need to worry about getting it installed in the wrong folder, or drastically messing something up.

Bluehost will take care of the backend, while you just need to worry about customizing your site and making it look pretty.

If you’re new to site building, I’m pretty sure you have no problems at all creating your site with Bluehost. Even those of us that are a little more seasoned will appreciate how convenient their dashboard is to use.

Look out how beautiful that custom cPanel interface looks. None of that confusing looking dated mess that comes with stock cPanel.

2. They’re Surprisingly Fast Around The World!

According to thinkwithgoogle, fast site load speeds are important for online businesses to be successful, and server response time plays a HUGE role in getting websites to load up fast.

However, with merely 1 datacenter located in the USA, we didn’t think Bluehost would do very well when put through our proprietary server speed test.

Using our test site hosted on their basic plan, we went to town and started testing their response times – boy, we were dead wrong.

Average Speed: 153 ms

The American hosting provider responded exceptionally well, hitting speeds that are WAY faster than Google’s recommended 200ms in all countries, except for Bangalore.

They’re obviously fastest in the USA as the datacenter is located there, but they’re no slouch in countries on the other side of the world like Singapore, Sydney and Japan!

With an average worldwide score of 153ms, Bluehost is one of the fastest A-ranked hosting providers we’ve ever had the pleasure of reviewing. You can rest assured that no matter where your target audience resides in the world, Bluehost will be able to deliver!

Well… except if your audience is in India. You might want to check out our piece on the best web hosting for India instead.

3. They’ve Got High-Performance Servers

Those of you with plans to run large scale e-Commerce websites or reddit-like forums would be happy to know that Bluehost offers High-Performance Servers that are suitable for your needs.

Why is this important?

Well, with shared web hosting, the purpose of the server is literally in the name – you’re sharing the space with other users, which helps reduce the cost.

However, some users might accidentally (or intentionally) use up way more resources than allocated, which means that everyone else sharing the server with that user will experience site slowdowns – sometimes their sites won’t even load at all.

With High-Performance Servers, Bluehost allocates fewer users per server, and each user is given a file count of 300,000 – this means more computing resources per user, consistent site load speeds, and less downtime caused by rogue users!

BUT!

As it is with all things good, there’s always a catch.

Their High-Performance servers are only available with their Pro plan, which is a whole lot pricier than the rest of their shared web hosting plans.

Guess if you want good performance, you’ve gotta pay for it.

Quite frankly, we have every confidence in their servers. Our test site is hosted only with their Basic plan, and even then, the uptime for it has been 100% since April 2018!

Uptime since April 2018

99.98%

* Bluehost Basic Plan Uptime - tracked with uptimerobot.com

If their shared hosting servers can produce such uptimes, we can easily expect the same from their High-Performance servers.

4. Fantastic Security Features

When we say security, we don’t mean features that just keeps your website safe from those fiendish, ne’er do well hackers.

We’re talking about security in terms of peace of mind, and keeping spam away from the sanctuary of your brand new email inbox.

Let’s look into peace of mind first.

You don’t want to spend days, weeks, months, customizing and tweaking your business website to get it to look perfect and suited to rank on the front of page Google, only to load it up to discover that someone screwed the pooch and your entire website is gone.

For this, Bluehost provides their users with CodeGuard basic – at $2.99 a month.

CodeGuard Basic

The name sounds cool, but it’s actually just a fancy name they came up with for their daily backup service. It’s not bad at all – monitoring your website/database frequently, notifying you if there are any changes, and automatically performing backups.

The basic version provides 1GB storage space, daily backup and monitoring, and 3 restorations a month.

If you need more, CodeGuard comes in Professional, Premium, and Enterprise versions too, but be prepared to pay higher prices for those.

SpamExperts

We assure you, Bluehost won’t be sending someone that can tell you the nuances between different types of pork used in SPAM products.

Instead, SpamExperts is their term for an advanced email filter. It scans incoming emails for spam, viruses, phishing, and other email-related attacks by spammers, and filters them with a rockin’ 99.98% accuracy, all before it reaches your inbox.

Basically, it helps your mailbox stay squeaky clean and junk-free.

SiteLock

In terms of actually protecting your website, Bluehost comes with a basic firewall that offers a minimal level of protection against external threats.

However, If you want enhanced protection, you can get it in the form of SiteLock.

SiteLock comes in three tiers: Essential, Prevent, and Prevent Plus.

With Essential, you’ll get to enjoy automatic Malware removal, which does exactly nothing against DDOS attacks or anything major.

With Prevent, the security level is upped a little with Automatic Malware Removal, DDoS Protection, 6-hour response time and….Image Optimization. Quite frankly, I don’t know what image optimization has to do with security, but it’s a feature I won’t be complaining about.

Prevent Plus does everything Prevent can, but with the added benefit of having daily scan frequency.

SiteLock is good and all, but the thing is, they all come as an add-on, meaning we’re gonna need to fork out more money to enjoy it. Come on Bluehost, you can afford to give your customers a little extra security for free!

5. They’ve Got A Buffet Of Benefits

Gone are the days where you have to carefully plan out the number of sites you’re planning to launch, and the kind of resources needed to run all of it effectively.

Bluehost’s shared hosting plans come with all sorts of benefits, and best of all, almost everything is unlimited! We’re talking:

· Unlimited websites

· Unlimited SSD storage

· Unlimited parked domains

· Unlimited subdomains

· Unmetered bandwidth

You are basically free to create as many sites as you want with them! And you won’t have to worry about the number of visitors to your site!

Be wary though – having too many visitors at the same time might take up too much resources, and Bluehost is notorious for deactivating/deleting rogue sites.

6. Support Responds Very Fast!

One of the most infuriating things in life is waiting for support to respond to you, especially if your site needs attention NOW.

While we were setting up our test site, we were quite pleased to find that support responded via Live Chat very quickly. We’re accustomed to waiting at least 15 minutes for live chat support staff to respond, but the Bluehost support team consistently responded in less than 5 minutes.

We didn’t try phone or email support, but with live chat responding as quick as they do, we hardly think that those methods of support are necessary, although it’s nice to have in case of emergencies.

You won’t have to worry about support in different time zones either, because Bluehost’s support is available 24/7.

Excellent job, team!

7. Freebies That Matter

Some companies will entice you to sign up with their service with shallow free gifts. We’re talking about those that market regular services as “free”, such as “free” 24/7 support, or “free” WordPress installation.

Not Bluehost.

With the all-American web hosting service provider, you’ll actually get freebies that’ll make a difference in your bank account.

With every shared hosting plan purchased, Bluehost will throw in a domain name, free for the first year. To put things in perspective for you, domain names can cost anywhere from $8 to $872 million – yes you read that right. Here’s proof.

Aside from that, you’ll also get the enjoy free SSL – now this might not be much, but every little bit definitely helps to make a difference to the small business owner!

4 Disadvantages Of Bluehost

They say that every rose has its thorn. Well, turns out Bluehost is quite thorny.

1. Bluehost Only Has 1 Datacenter

We mentioned previously that we were quite impressed by how fast Bluehost’s 1 datacenter performed, and we still are.

However, every millisecond counts when it comes to site load speed, and we know they can actually perform WAY better if they had datacenters in other continents to support audiences living further away.

They might have one of the best worldwide average speeds among all the web hosting services we’ve reviewed, but if another hosting provider like SiteGround has a datacenter in Asia, it’s a given that sites will load up faster for target audiences located there.

2. Untrained Trainees

I hate to say this because we all start out somewhere, but you really have to be wary of support that are a little wet behind the ears.

Bluehost doesn’t really make an effort to hide that they outsource their support team to India, which isn’t really a big deal anyway. I don’t mind, as long as they’re efficient and fast.

But what I do have a problem is incorrect advice given by trainees.

While setting up our test site, we asked the support team one really simple question:

“Does Bluehost provide us with an Uptime Guarantee?”

The support didn’t know what an uptime guarantee was.

Fine, maybe it got lost in translation. We explained what we were looking for and their reply was YES, Bluehost has an uptime guarantee!

So we asked him to point us to the terms of the guarantee and after going through it, we discovered that the provider does not actually guarantee uptime.

Lucky that this is just a minor issue. God forbid this young support chap gives the wrong advice regarding something major and causes some real damage to our sites.

Bluehost, if you’re reading this, PLEASE train your trainees. This is not acceptable.

3. No Uptime Guarantee

After ranting about it in the earlier point, I can’t really not talk about the lack of uptime guarantee here.

Downtime is quite detrimental to any website. You lose potential sales or conversions if your site is experiencing downtime, and if it’s consistent enough, search engines might not even bother listing your site.

This is why an uptime guarantee is important.

It shows you that the provider is committed to keeping your site up and running, and they’re willing to compensate customers if they face downtimes of below a certain percentage.

Not having one is a giant red flag in our books.

That being said, we have to give Bluehost props – their uptime is actually fantastic, as evidenced by the uptime data collected from our test site.

For the lazy, it’s been at 100% since April 2008. Quite an impressive feat!

4. Dodgy Checkout Practices

Pretty sure everyone reading this will be familiar with the sleazy used car salesman that tries to slyly upsell you things you don’t really need just to make a higher sale.

Making a purchase with Bluehost feels a little bit like we’re dealing with people of that sort.

Upon checkout, the box for SEO tools and Sitelock will be checked, which pushes the price up to close to $60 a year.

These things are nice to have but are completely unnecessary, and unsuspecting buyers might just click next and make the purchase unknowingly – which happened to me.

Make sure you uncheck these boxes before making your purchase (unless you actually want these features).

VPS Hosting

If you’re in need of VPS hosting, Bluehost’s virtual private servers are sure to please. Supported with SSD storage, you’ll enjoy all the power, flexibility and control you’ll need for your VPS needs.

Plans range from $18.99 – $59.99 a month.

Dedicated Hosting

Bluehost’s dedicated hosting plans allow users to have unrestricted access to their servers. With their industry-leading robust platform, you’ll get to enjoy powerful flexible hosting at decent prices.

Their dedicated hosting plans range from $79.99 – $119.99 per month.

GET 33% OFF @ BLUEHOST BASIC (FOR $3.95/MO)

* Price shown is based on 36-month subscription. ** 30-day money back guarantee!

Verdict: Bluehost Is Good, But Not The Best Choice!

Just because we didn’t pick Bluehost to be the best web hosting brand, doesn’t mean that they’re not a good service provider.

They’re actually pretty decent, providing their users with fast enough speeds worldwide to ensure their users’ sites are loaded fast enough to generate a healthy amount of sales.

With superb useability and great UX, Bluehost is fantastic for beginners. Their WordPress recommendation should speak volumes about their service.

One thing we need to mention is that Bluehost is still using cPanel, which is great news for those of us that are accustomed to using it. Since cPanel increased their prices, most web hosting providers have decided to dump them, but so far there seems to be no indication of Bluehost dropping cPanel.

However, the lack of an uptime guarantee got us pretty peeved, as most major providers have the balls to provide some sort of compensation if their users’ sites are down for a certain amount of time.

The very fact that the companies are willing to put their money where their mouth is, inspires confidence. Bluehost does exactly the opposite without an uptime guarantee… what if the websites hosted with them go down for an entire week?

Anyone can promise to “strive to maintain network and server uptime” but it means completely jack if they can’t sack up and foot the bill when shit hits the fan.

However, credit where credit is due – we’ve never had a problem with Bluehost’s actual uptime before. As a matter of fact, the uptime has been 100% on our test site since April 2018!

Our humble opinion is that Bluehost is a pretty strong hosting provider. They may not be the fastest and they may not be the best, but if you’re just looking to host a simple website, they’ve got all the tools you’ll need to do so effectively.

Microsoft Defender ATP is now available for Android

Microsoft is gradually expanding its antivirus software protection to smartphones and other OSs. The software giant has announced that its native Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) software is now available for Android in preview, and will be coming to iOS later this year.

In the world of growing malware, antivirus softwares are turning as a must-have resource in every device. Cyberattackers are indeed evolving with new techniques to bypass traditional security walls, and spy or steal your data. Thus, having authentic antivirus software is a must. And what could be more trusted than Microsoft, the one which is been in making such products for decades.

Microsoft has yesterday announced that its famous antivirus protection software, the Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) is now available for Android in preview mode. Interested users can try the public preview starting today, for free. It’s able to perform Quick and Full scans, and inform user about any threats.

Scanning with this new protection software will surface any malware or potentially unwanted apps and will push a lightweight notification on the top saying everything’s okay if it’s okay. Besides these, it has web protections like anti-phishing feature to detect an unsafe website that’s routed via SMS, WhatsApp, email or other apps, and block them instantly.

Also Read: 5 Best Custom ROMs for your Android phone

Further, there’s an option called Defender SmartScreen technology, that would detect and block unsafe network connections, that are created by malicious apps for stealing data or snooping. This adds as an extra layer of security over Google’s existing Play Protect and web abuse detectors.

Besides Android, Microsoft says an iOS client of this software will be coming soon. This could be limited, as Apple allows only verified apps from Appstore, thus doing most. And it has released a stable client for Linux desktop users too! This makes the company have uniform services across most used services like Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS.

Original Post from FireEye Author: Vikram Hegde

This blog post presents a machine learning (ML) approach to solving an emerging security problem: detecting obfuscated Windows command line invocations on endpoints. We start out with an introduction to this relatively new threat capability, and then discuss how such problems have traditionally been handled. We then describe a machine learning approach to solving this problem and point out how ML vastly simplifies development and maintenance of a robust obfuscation detector. Finally, we present the results obtained using two different ML techniques and compare the benefits of each.

Introduction

Malicious actors are increasingly “living off the land,” using built-in utilities such as PowerShell and the Windows Command Processor (cmd.exe) as part of their infection workflow in an effort to minimize the chance of detection and bypass whitelisting defense strategies. The release of new obfuscation tools makes detection of these threats even more difficult by adding a layer of indirection between the visible syntax and the final behavior of the command. For example, Invoke-Obfuscation and Invoke-DOSfuscation are two recently released tools that automate the obfuscation of Powershell and Windows command lines respectively.

The traditional pattern matching and rule-based approaches for detecting obfuscation are difficult to develop and generalize, and can pose a huge maintenance headache for defenders. We will show how using ML techniques can address this problem.

Detecting obfuscated command lines is a very useful technique because it allows defenders to reduce the data they must review by providing a strong filter for possibly malicious activity. While there are some examples of “legitimate” obfuscation in the wild, in the overwhelming majority of cases, the presence of obfuscation generally serves as a signal for malicious intent.

Background

There has been a long history of obfuscation being employed to hide the presence of malware, ranging from encryption of malicious payloads (starting with the Cascade virus) and obfuscation of strings, to JavaScript obfuscation. The purpose of obfuscation is two-fold:

Make it harder to find patterns in executable code, strings or scripts that can easily be detected by defensive software.

Make it harder for reverse engineers and analysts to decipher and fully understand what the malware is doing.

In that sense, command line obfuscation is not a new problem – it is just that the target of obfuscation (the Windows Command Processor) is relatively new. The recent release of tools such as Invoke-Obfuscation (for PowerShell) and Invoke-DOSfuscation (for cmd.exe) have demonstrated just how flexible these commands are, and how even incredibly complex obfuscation will still run commands effectively.

There are two categorical axes in the space of obfuscated vs. non-obfuscated command lines: simple/complex and clear/obfuscated (see Figure 1 and Figure 2). For this discussion “simple” means generally short and relatively uncomplicated, but can still contain obfuscation, while “complex” means long, complicated strings that may or may not be obfuscated. Thus, the simple/complex axis is orthogonal to obfuscated/unobfuscated. The interplay of these two axes produce many boundary cases where simple heuristics to detect if a script is obfuscated (e.g. length of a command) will produce false positives on unobfuscated samples. The flexibility of the command line processor makes classification a difficult task from an ML perspective.

Figure 1: Dimensions of obfuscation

Figure 2: Examples of weak and strong obfuscation

Traditional Obfuscation Detection

Traditional obfuscation detection can be split into three approaches. One approach is to write a large number of complex regular expressions to match the most commonly abused syntax of the Windows command line. Figure 3 shows one such regular expression that attempts to match ampersand chaining with a call command, a common pattern seen in obfuscation. Figure 4 shows an example command sequence this regex is designed to detect.

Figure 3: A common obfuscation pattern captured as a regular expression

Figure 4: A common obfuscation pattern (calling echo in obfuscated fashion in this example)

There are two problems with this approach. First, it is virtually impossible to develop regular expressions to cover every possible abuse of the command line. The flexibility of the command line results in a non-regular language, which is feasible yet impractical to express using regular expressions. A second issue with this approach is that even if a regular expression exists for the technique a malicious sample is using, a determined attacker can make minor modifications to avoid the regular expression. Figure 5 shows a minor modification to the sequence in Figure 4, which avoids the regex detection.

Figure 5: A minor change (extra carets) to an obfuscated command line that breaks the regular expression in Figure 3

The second approach, which is closer to an ML approach, involves writing complex if-then rules. However, these rules are hard to derive, are complex to verify, and pose a significant maintenance burden as authors evolve to escape detection by such rules. Figure 6 shows one such if-then rule.

Figure 6: An if-then rule that *may* indicate obfuscation (notice how loose this rule is, and how false positives are likely)

A third approach is to combine regular expressions and if-then rules. This greatly complicates the development and maintenance burden, and still suffers from the same weaknesses that make the first two approaches fragile. Figure 7 shows an example of an if-then rule with regular expressions. Clearly, it is easy to appreciate how burdensome it is to generate, test, maintain and determine the efficacy of such rules.

Figure 7: A combination of an if-then rule with regular expressions to detect obfuscation (a real hand-built obfuscation detector would consist of tens or hundreds of rules and still have gaps in its detection)

The ML Approach – Moving Beyond Pattern Matching and Rules

Using ML simplifies the solution to these problems. We will illustrate two ML approaches: a feature-based approach and a feature-less end-to-end approach.

There are some ML techniques that can work with any kind of raw data (provided it is numeric), and neural networks are a prime example. Most other ML algorithms require the modeler to extract pertinent information, called features, from raw data before they are fed into the algorithm. Some examples of this latter type are tree-based algorithms, which we will also look at in this blog (we described the structure and uses of Tree-Based algorithms in a previous blog post, where we used a Gradient-Boosted Tree-Based Model).

ML Basics – Neural Networks

Neural networks are a type of ML algorithm that have recently become very popular and consist of a series of elements called neurons. A neuron is essentially an element that takes a set of inputs, computes a weighted sum of these inputs, and then feeds the sum into a non-linear function. It has been shown that a relatively shallow network of neurons can approximate any continuous mapping between input and output. The specific type of neural network we used for this research is what is called a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), which was developed primarily for computer vision applications, but has also found success in other domains including natural language processing. One of the main benefits of a neural network is that it can be trained without having to manually engineer features.

Featureless ML

While neural networks can be used with feature data, one of the attractions of this approach is that it can work with raw data (converted into numeric form) without doing any feature design or extraction. The first step in the model is converting text data into numeric form. We used a character-based encoding where each character type was encoded by a real valued number. The value was automatically derived during training and conveys semantic information about the relationships between characters as they apply to cmd.exe syntax.

Feature-Based ML

We also experimented with hand-engineered features and a Gradient Boosted Decision Tree algorithm. The features developed for this model were largely statistical in nature – derived from the presence and frequency of character sets and keywords. For example, the presence of dozens of ‘%’ characters or long, contiguous strings might contribute to detecting potential obfuscation. While any single feature will not perfectly separate the two classes, a combination of features as present in a tree-based model can learn flexible patterns in the data. The expectation is that those patterns are robust and can generalize to future obfuscation variants.

Data and Experiments

To develop our models, we collected non-obfuscated data from tens of thousands of endpoint events and generated obfuscated data using a variety of methods in Invoke-DOSfuscation. We developed our models using roughly 80 percent of the data as training data, and tested them on the remaining 20 percent. We ensured that our train-test split was stratified. For featureless ML (i.e. neural networks), we simply input Unicode code points into the first layer of the CNN model. The first layer converts the code point into semantically meaningful numerical representations (called embeddings) before feeding it into the rest of the neural network.

For the Gradient Boosted Tree method, we generated a number of features from the raw command lines. The following are some of them:

Length of the command line

The number of carets in the command line

The count of pipe symbols

The fraction of white space in the command line

The fraction of special characters

Entropy of the string

The frequency of the strings “cmd” and “power” in the command line

While each of these features individually is a weak signal and could not possibly be a good discriminator on its own, a flexible classifier such as a Gradient Boosted Tree – trained on sufficient data with these features – is able to classify obfuscated and non-obfuscated command lines in spite of the aforementioned difficulties.

Results

Evaluated against our test set, we were able to get nearly identical results from our Gradient Boosted Tree and neural network models.

The results for the GBT model were near perfect with metrics such as F1-score, precision, and recall all being close to 1.0. The CNN model was slightly less accurate.

While we certainly do not expect perfect results in a real-world scenario, these lab results were nonetheless encouraging. Recall that all of our obfuscated examples were generated by one source, namely the Invoke-DOSfuscation tool. While Invoke-DOSfuscation generates a wide variety of obfuscated samples, in the real world we expect to see at least some samples that are quite dissimilar from any that Invoke-DOSfuscation generates. We are currently collecting real world obfuscated command lines to get a more accurate picture of the generalizability of this model on obfuscated samples from actual malicious actors. We expect that command obfuscation, similar to PowerShell obfuscation before it, will continue to emerge in new malware families.

As an additional test we asked Daniel Bohannon (author of Invoke-DOSfuscation, the Windows command line obfuscation tool) to come up with obfuscated samples that in his experience would be difficult for a traditional obfuscation detector. In every case, our ML detector was still able to detect obfuscation. Some examples are shown in Figure 8.

Figure 8: Some examples of obfuscated text used to test and attempt to defeat the ML obfuscation detector (all were correctly identified as obfuscated text)

We also created very cryptic looking texts that, although valid Windows command lines and non-obfuscated, appear slightly obfuscated to a human observer. This was done to test efficacy of the detector with boundary examples. The detector was correctly able to classify the text as non-obfuscated in this case as well. Figure 9 shows one such example.

Figure 9: An example that appears on first glance to be obfuscated, but isn’t really and would likely fool a non-ML solution (however, the ML obfuscation detector currently identifies it as non-obfuscated)

Finally, Figure 10 shows a complicated yet non-obfuscated command line that is correctly classified by our obfuscation detector, but would likely fool a non-ML detector based on statistical features (for example a rule-based detector with a hand-crafted weighing scheme and a threshold, using features such as the proportion of special characters, length of the command line or entropy of the command line).

Figure 10: An example that would likely be misclassified by an ML detector that uses simplistic statistical features; however, our ML obfuscation detector currently identifies it as non-obfuscated

CNN vs. GBT Results

We compared the results of a heavily tuned GBT classifier built using carefully selected features to those of a CNN trained with raw data (featureless ML). While the CNN architecture was not heavily tuned, it is interesting to note that with samples such as those in Figure 10, the GBT classifier confidently predicted non-obfuscated with a score of 19.7 percent (the complement of the measure of the classifier’s confidence in non-obfuscation). Meanwhile, the CNN classifier predicted non-obfuscated with a confidence probability of 50 percent – right at the boundary between obfuscated and non-obfuscated. The number of misclassifications of the CNN model was also more than that of the Gradient Boosted Tree model. Both of these are most likely the result of inadequate tuning of the CNN, and not a fundamental shortcoming of the featureless approach.

Conclusion

In this blog post we described an ML approach to detecting obfuscated Windows command lines, which can be used as a signal to help identify malicious command line usage. Using ML techniques, we demonstrated a highly accurate mechanism for detecting such command lines without resorting to the often inadequate and costly technique of maintaining complex if-then rules and regular expressions. The more comprehensive ML approach is flexible enough to catch new variations in obfuscation, and when gaps are detected, it can usually be handled by adding some well-chosen evader samples to the training set and retraining the model.

This successful application of ML is yet another demonstration of the usefulness of ML in replacing complex manual or programmatic approaches to problems in computer security. In the years to come, we anticipate ML to take an increasingly important role both at FireEye and in the rest of the cyber security industry.

This way you can remove and recognize dangerous Android apps

Almost no week passes, or new dangerous apps dive into the Play Store. In a week, there are new apps that try to get hold of your bank details in the background, the next week viruses are hidden in seemingly innocent flashlight apps. Our readers regularly want to know how they can best be protected as an Android user, and which steps they can take. This is how you can only remove dangerous Android apps, but also recognize and prevent them.

1. Which Apps are infected?

Dangerous apps regularly appear in the Play Store. However, by the time they are discovered, Google has already removed them. Moreover, they often have very generic names, which conceal the true nature of the app.

Recently, security researchers discovered viruses in apps with names such as ‘News Pro‘, ‘Android Cleaner‘ and ‘Tornado Flashlight‘. Malware also pretends to be other, well-known apps, with minor variations. For example, a virus can hide in WhatsApp Download for Android, while WhatsApp itself is completely safe.

2. How do I recognize a dangerous app in the Play Store?

So it is still a big task to avoid malware in the Play Store. The greatest help you have with that is your common sense. If an app promises things that are too good to be true, do not download it. If there are strange images or other questionable content, then you should at least check thoroughly before you start downloading.

Your fellow users can also help. In the Play Store, you can see how often an app has been downloaded. For example, if you have opened an app that pretends to be WhatsApp, but has only 10,000 downloads, it is probably a fake app and checks the reviews. If an app gets a lot of negative reviews with low ratings, leave it to the left.

The big Android Version overview

Lastly, pay close attention to permissions. All Android apps ask you for permission to use the different functions on your smartphone. For example, WhatsApp needs access to your camera to take photos, while Facebook wants to see your contacts to add more friends. But if a flashlight app requires permission to send text messages, then you better refuse. Also, a news app usually does not really need access to your microphone. When in doubt, you simply refuse, even if it is a safe app. The app often continues to function; only some functions will not be available.

3. How do I delete a Dangerous App?

Do you think you have a dangerous app on your smartphone? then you better protect it as soon as possible. Download an antivirus app, or follow the steps below to resolve and uninstall the app.

Open your settings, and go to ‘Security‘;

Select the heading ‘Device manager‘ or ‘Apps for device management’ or device administrator, depending on which version of Android you use;

If there are apps such as Adobe Flash Player, Adobe Update or Android Update in between, switch it off;

Then remove the apps from your smartphone by going to ‘Apps’ in the settings. Remove not only the apps with Device Manager but also the programs that you gave in the Play Store at the time to download files in the background.

4. What are the best anti-virus Apps for Android?

If you have a desktop computer or laptop, it is probably equipped with a virus scanner. It warns you when a virus pops up, and can often also remove it immediately. On Android, virus scanners are slightly less effective, because an app cannot just get involved. So, see them as a smoke detector which serves as a notification channel if you have received a virus, but it is then up to you to take action.

Yet a virus scanner is certainly not a bad idea if you are afraid of dangerous apps. Among others, we recommend ESET, Avast and Malwarebytes. A free version of all three is available, with which you automatically and regularly scan your smartphone for malware. Of these apps are often also paid variants available. For example, they can block advertising in your browser, protect your photos better or remotely erase your device if it is stolen.

5. Can’t I better use internet banking at all?

If you do not have a bank app on your smartphone, you indeed run less risk. However, if you are going to start this way, you better not use a smartphone at all. Moreover, a bank app can help you to handle your money more wisely. You can see everywhere and always how much money is left in your account. And if you want to keep an eye on whether there are no weird transfers, you can do that at any time via the app.

Moreover, the bank apps are often not the problem; they are well encrypted so that malicious people cannot really just break in. The danger is in other apps or websites that pretend to be your bank, or that, for example, read out your SMS messages with verification codes.

6. Why does Google not offer better protection?

Although Google promises improvement at every break in Android, these improvements do not seem to help in a very hard situation. The operating system is now ten years old but is still plagued by vulnerabilities. A frequently asked question is why Google does not do something about it.

The answer: Google does take steps, but the manufacturer of your smartphone often notices that much. For example, since 2015, Google has released security updates every month. They offer good protection against all known vulnerabilities, regardless of which version of Android is on your device or tablet. Unfortunately, manufacturers must then make those updates suitable for their devices and release them. And they sometimes reject it. Some manufacturers only issue a security update every three months, others do not even at all.

To tackle the problem at the root, Google launched Play Protect this summer. This means that all apps on your smartphone and in the Play Store are continuously checked for possible viruses. Unfortunately, a recent study shows that Play Protect only stops about 70 percent of all viruses. Remarkable, because most of the virus scanners we mention above offer protection of 95 percent or better. For now, it is no more than a nice promise from Google.

7. Why is Android more insecure than iOS?

Although you regularly hear about new dangers for Android, there are rarely any security problems around the iPhone. That does not mean that with iOS, Apple’s operating system, you are always 100 percent safe. However, you generally run a lot less risk.

That is not because Apple is much stricter, but especially because iOS is a lot more closed. Android apps can adjust pretty large parts of your smartphone. For example, there are apps that change your home screen or read your text messages and where you cannot change your default apps on iOS, you’re not just stuck on Chrome or the Gmail app on Android.

With iOS, apps work a lot more separately, and they cannot actually take over system functions. As a result, an iOS app can also do a lot less damage. It then ensures that Android offers you much more freedom.
