Threat analysts investigating malicious infrastructure are likely to encounter “open directories” during their investigations. These directories, commonly referred to as “opendirs” are openly accessible servers where threat actors host malicious files related to their operations.
An open directory is a simple concept that many will be familiar with. Despite this, there is little public documentation regarding their discovery and how to identify and track new open directory infrastructure.
This webinar, hosted by Senior Security Researcher Ariana Mirian, will cover the basics of an open directory, how you can discover them during hunting, and how to further your investigations into open directory infrastructure.
