LogZilla's Malware Detection capability is so easy that it will make you wannacry...
If you are in the free speaking world and have access to news outlets, you’ve no doubt heard about the WannaCry ransomware attack targeting systems all over the world. The estimates are that over a quarter of a million computers have been compromised spanning more than 150 countries. If you have anything to do with the operations and engineering of your company’s infrastructure, you probably started wondering if WannaCry had made it’s way into your piece of the universe.
An easy way to get visibility into the WannaCry malware in your environment is to install LogZilla and use the pre-built rules from our LogZilla Extras GitHub repository.
Next, point your network and server telemetry to your LogZilla server and, within seconds, you’ll be able to select IoC-WannaCry
or IoC-IP_Blacklist
from the Program dropdown to see if your company has been infected.
Here is a screenshot of one of our dashboards filtered on these programs:

Editing widgets for this data is equally as easy
Now that you have the data in LogZilla, alerts and automatic remediation are just as easy. Here is an example trigger that will send a Slack message with information about the newly found malware infected host:

Here is what the Slack message looks like when we receive it from LogZilla:
