Almost Half of All Malware Now Passes Communications Through TLS

This helps malicious actors blend with legitimate traffic, as in most cases, they are abusing legit services. Dealing with the problem is challenging, and that’s why threat actors are now massively adopting TLS for their operations. TLS (Transport Layer Security) is a cryptographic protocol designed to provide security in communications over computer networks. It has been previously used by email platforms, instant messaging tools, VoIP solutions, and HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure), among others. As Sophos researchers report now, there’s a surge of malware authors adopting TLS for their communications, rising to 46.7% of all samples analyzed in Q1 2021. This is both impressive and problematic, as having malware sending and receiving encrypted data practically means it’s harder to detect.

Encryption unlocks the benefits of a thriving, trustworthy Internet

Contributor: Robin Wilton The Internet is a critical, global resource that brings incredible benefits, provided it is both accessible and trustworthy. In 2020, the Internet Society identified five critical properties that ‘make the Internet the Internet’. They represent the foundation of the Internet, which we call the Internet Way of Networking (IWN). Without them, the Internet’s benefits of global innovation and opportunity are in jeopardy. The path from critical properties to global benefits involves risk, however, and encryption is a vital tool for protecting ourselves along the way.    Cryptographic technology, including encryption [1], protects the integrity and confidentiality of data; it underpins authentication protocols and digital certificates. It secures communication protocols and protects access to resources and data-at-rest.
