Almost 15-20 yrs ago, before I deleted my LI profile, he was kind enough to have a look at some random malware at (big name) caught in the wild (because the org dragged its heels into any measurable security) doing actually weird and clever things to hide itself from all manner of scanning tools, including that 4 letter acronym collection package MSFT gave to customers to grab forensics. Back then, they also taught MSFT NT kernel devs for a time how their own stuff worked.

Satya Narayana and company out of Azure are a tribe of forward thinkers who rescued MSFT in the long-term by adapting and embracing without as much extinguishing.

PS: Unnamed yours truly is now around the corner from where Winternals was. Small world.
