Welcome to this week’s Threat Source newsletter — the perfect place to get caught up on all things Talos from the past week.
Never assume that a malware family is really dead. We’ve done it time and time again with things like Emotet, and Gustuff is proving it once again. The banking trojan, after we first discovered it earlier this year, is back with a version 2, targeting a new round of victims and deploying new anti-detection techniques.
We also have our weekly Threat Roundup, which you can find on the blog every Friday afternoon. There, we go over the most prominent threats we’ve seen (and blocked) over the past week.
