Hi everyone, it's @threatresearch driving the X-Ops social media today to let you know about a story we just published, written by my colleague Gabor Szappanos.

Szapi has done significant research in the past into a #malware family called #Gootloader that (for years, now) uses malicious #SEO techniques to promote compromised websites into Google search results.

This research finally cracks wide open the mystery of how they manage to do that so effectively. It's a long read, but well worth the deep dive.
