Investigating macOS Ransomware
This session explores the rapidly evolving ransomware landscape through a cross-platform lens, focusing on critical developments in both macOS and Windows ecosystems. The session traces macOS ransomware’s transformation from early proof-of-concepts to sophisticated multi-architecture campaigns targeting Intel and Apple Silicon hardware, showcasing real-world threats like NotLockBit and FrigidStealer that bypass Apple’s advanced security features.Attendees will gain unique insights into the latest Apple security innovations, including Gatekeeper 3.0, enhanced transparency controls, and machine-learning driven threat detection, understanding how these reshape the attacker-defender dynamic. The presentation also bridges gaps between platforms by detailing tailored digital forensic and incident response strategies essential for modern mixed environments, emphasizing artifact collection, cloud exfiltration detection, and tooling adaptations.
