What we research

Four thematic lines that guide the Lab's work.

research line

Malware Research

Research and technical analysis of malicious software: how it works, what it's after and how it behaves.

research line

Threat Intelligence

Research into threats, campaigns, infrastructure and actor behaviors.

research line

Adversary Research

Analysis of threat actors' tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs).

research line

Detection Research

Exploring detection opportunities and validating behaviors.

/ how we think about it .

From research to training

Our way of working: what we research becomes knowledge, and that knowledge feeds training and practice. It's not a closed methodology.

01

Research

We research threats and behaviors.

02

Knowledge

We turn it into clear knowledge.

03

Training

That knowledge feeds the training.

04

Practice

And it's practiced in real scenarios.
