This is a brilliant tactic. There are so many others like this because the AV community keeps thinking this is a one-move game... Kudos!https://twitter.com/markkriegsman/status/850315971625668608 …
change your outlook signature to X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H* and watch chaos ensue

There is a reason why EICAR specifies that their test string should be detected only at the beginning of the file, you know.
-
Specifications and implementations can be different. :) EICAR with a space before it on VT: https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/2daedb5a09d3d16257b74ab82382e3037677641460b21b72d59a98a0d8c2ef79/analysis/1491591227/ …pic.twitter.com/8T1qjEuVol

Not EICAR's fault if their specifications aren't followed but there ARE reasons for these specifications. http://www.eicar.org/86-0-Intended-use.html …pic.twitter.com/Tx4YufahMX

Why stop at email, change browser user agent to that
-
Replace all tracking cookies with that.
-
User agent is logged on a lot of web servers, I don't think cookies normally go into log files, just databases
-
Right. Get them to delete their whole database of tracking data.
-
My motive here isn't getting rid of logs to cover an attack, just getting rid of maliciously-collected data.
-
But the DB may be encrypted, not storing on disk, or not plain text on disk

See my post in the thread. I notified Twitter support but I now just realised that they may never have received it because it was blocked

ITS don't like it when you do that. Also put it in your internal wiki sig when you have AV network appliances.
