McAfee Labs Threats Report:
April 2017

In the McAfee Labs Threats Report: April 2017, we discuss two key topics:

• We discuss the background and drivers of threat intelligence sharing, various threat intelligence components, sources, and sharing models, and how mature security operations can use shared threat intelligence.
• We examine Mirai, which is notable because it detects and infects poorly secured IoT devices, transforming them into bots to attack its targets.
