Malware Persistence
A curated collection of information and tools for detecting, analyzing, and hunting malware persistence mechanisms across operating systems.
What is Malware Persistence?
Malware Persistence is a curated collection of information and resources focused on how malware maintains access on compromised systems after initial infection. It addresses the gap in many malware analyses that overlook persistence mechanisms, which are more static and reliable for detection than IPs or hashes. The repository serves as a reference for threat hunters, incident responders, and security analysts to identify and mitigate persistent threats.
Incident responders, threat hunters, and security analysts performing compromise assessments or infrastructure monitoring. It's also valuable for red teams testing detection capabilities and security engineers building detection pipelines.
It consolidates scattered, hard-to-find persistence information into a single, regularly updated resource, saving time for security professionals. Unlike generic threat intelligence feeds, it focuses specifically on persistence—a high-signal, low-noise attack vector—with practical detection examples and tool recommendations.
