Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) is a powerful debugging and system telemetry feature that's been available since Windows 2000, but greatly expanded in recent years. Modern versions of Windows offer hundreds of ETW providers that are a veritable treasure trove of forensic data. This talk will take a fresh look at operationalizing ETW to combat contemporary intrusion methodologies and tradecraft. We'll walk through real world examples, covering both common malware behaviors and stealthy attacks that "live off the land", and demonstrate how to effectively utilize key ETW providers to detect and respond to these techniques.
