Turtles, Clams, and Cyber Threat Actors: Shell Usage
The Socket Threat Research Team uncovers how threat actors weaponize shell techniques across npm, PyPI, and Go ecosystems to maintain persistence and exfiltrate data.
Researchers who observe and study behavior often collect data in the form of sequences of behavioral displays that they need to analyze and visualize to test hypotheses. Behatrix is free and open-source software available for GNU/Linux, Windows and Mac OS X.
By using a flexible and efficient approach, Behatrix allows analyzing large sets of behavioral sequences and can organize data into contingency tables. The program can also perform permutations test and autonomously generate the code for a flow diagram representing the transitions between behaviors.
Behatrix can read data exported from BORIS (see Events as behavioral sequences) and can also be used as a standalone program.
The flow diagram generation requires the the Graphviz open source graph visualization software.
