A Day in the Life of a Malware Hunter!
Do you ever wonder how our engineers stay on top of the latest viral malware trends? What processes do they follow to test and discover how a malware strain or virus will interact with Veritas solutions? What is their day like working in an isolated environment?
It all happens in Veritas REDLab, a fully isolated lab where our teams proactively validate our cyber-resilience capabilities, including anomaly detection, malware detection, and product security. In my interview below with Veritas REDLab leader, Sonali Jeurkar, she provides a great overview of the Veritas REDLab and what sets it apart from the traditional RED team in most organizations.

In my second conversation with Sonali Jeurkar, she walks me through a day in the life of a REDLab engineer. In our insightful conversation, Sonali shares how these skilled team members:
- Research and identify the latest trends in cybersecurity threats
- Acquire and isolate through official channels new malware variations
- Observe the behaviors and impact on Veritas solutions in isolation
- Provide mitigation and remediation solutions and close gaps in the system
- Report critical updates to product teams so they can better secure our products
