Overview

"Rust-for-Malware-Development" is a GitHub repository dedicated to exploring the capabilities of the Rust programming language in the context of malware development. This repository serves as an educational resource for those interested in cybersecurity, particularly from an offensive perspective or for red teaming practices.

Content

• Malware Techniques:

  • Implementation of various malware functionalities like info stealers, keyloggers, and other persistent threats.
  • Techniques include but are not limited to process injection, evasion methods, encryption for C2 communications, and more.

• Educational Series:

  • A series of guides or tutorials on how to write malware in Rust, aimed at providing insights into how attackers might exploit system vulnerabilities.
  • Coverage of topics like memory safety in Rust, which is beneficial for writing stable, hard-to-detect malware.

• Real-World Examples:

  • Malware samples based on techniques seen in real-world cyber attacks or red team exercises, translated into Rust to showcase its potential in offensive security.

Purpose
