Interview With a Malware Hunter > Pieter Arntz
8 June 2017, by Malwarebytes LABs...
Ever wonder how Malwarebytes gets the latest info on new threats and how to beat them? It's our crack team of malware researchers. These cyber ninjas are responsible for gathering intel, reading between the lines of code, and rooting out the bad guys. When hunting for malware, they not only tip off our product team about new developments, but also blog about their discoveries to keep other folks safe. In our eyes, they're the unsung heroes of cybersecurity.
Unsung, that is, until now.
How did they get started in cybersecurity? Why do they do what they do? What advice do they have for newbies wanting to break into the field?
Our first interview is with one of our OG researchers and bloggers, Pieter Arntz, who's been helping Malwarebytes whoop malware tail for nearly eight years.

NB: From Ladybbird Members..
Ransomworm Spread Across the NET, because so many did NOT READ OUR WARNINGS in our Thread LAST YEAR....It will continue to grow..
ONLY REGISTERED MEMBERS can now read this ANNOUNCEMENT & Advice
BUT...
How the heck did Malwarebytes miss those horrendous attacks that affected MANY Countries/Servers & Sites, which included not only DREAMTEAMDOWNLOADS1.. > BUT many sites thereafter..> Even Google & Social Media Continue to be SLOWER these days....
Do NOT be fooled into buying any OFFERs to solve it..
Simply look after ALL computers/APPs Yourselves..
+ That is why DREAMTEAMDOWNLOADS1.. has not been able to UPDATE our various Sections > NOR, respond to the many pms we receive..
We and our Volunteer Staff/Admins... PLUS Our Server are a little busy, 'Behind the Scenes' to protect ourselves and our Members..
