ASML is a Dutch company specialized in manufacturing machines for the semiconductor industry. The company was founded in 1984 and is headquartered in Veldhoven, Netherlands. ASML is one of the world's largest suppliers of lithography systems, used to create patterns on microchips. Its machines are used by major chipmakers such as Intel, Samsung, and TSMC to produce advanced microprocessors, memory chips, and other advanced electronic components. ASML is the only supplier in the world of machines for producing chips using extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light, which is considered the key to producing future generations of chips with higher performance and energy efficiency. The company has more than 27,000 employees worldwide and has facilities in the US, China, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. ASML is listed on the Euronext Amsterdam stock exchange and is included in the AEX index, the main Dutch stock index. Recently, it was announced that ASML is no longer allowed to supply some chip machines to China due to stricter export rules. This has caused ASML to become caught up in a global dispute between two major powers. The US has been concerned for some time about advanced chip technology falling into Chinese hands, and is putting pressure on other countries to impose export restrictions. ASML is expected to be impacted by the new restrictions, but the company has stated that it does not expect the financial impact to be significant. ASML is constantly investing in research and development to stay at the forefront of technological advancements in the semiconductor industry. The company spent more than €2.2 billion on R&D in 2020 alone, which is around 14% of its net sales. In addition to its technological leadership, ASML has also been recognized for its sustainable business practices. The company has set ambitious sustainability goals, including reducing its carbon footprint, increasing the percentage of renewable energy it uses, and promoting diversity and inclusion in its workforce. ASML was named the world's most sustainable supplier in the semiconductor industry by the Dow Jones Sustainability Index for the third year in a row in 2020. Despite the recent export restrictions on some of its chip machines, ASML remains a major player in the global semiconductor industry. Its technology is essential for the production of advanced microprocessors and other electronic components that power many of the devices we use today, from smartphones to data centers. As demand for these technologies continues to grow, ASML is well positioned to capitalize on the opportunities presented by the industry's ongoing evolution. Last Thursday, the concrete cabinet plans were announced. These plans state that companies will need a permit, probably starting this summer, to supply certain chip machines to some other countries.The cabinet intentionally did not mention ASML or China by name. However, in practice, this simply means that ASML can no longer supply China with the most advanced version of the DUV (deep ultra violet) machines.It is likely that the Netherlands is not the only country imposing self-restrictions. Other countries such as Japan and South Korea also have specialized chip companies and may introduce restrictions. The US is concerned that the Chinese will learn the technology from ASML and its competitors and use it for military purposes. Therefore, the US President Joe Biden has recently put considerable pressure on the Dutch government to impose export restrictions. Or does the US just wants to stay ahead of china?

Skrull There is a well-known feature by which anti-virus or EDR can capture ambiguous or suspicious program files and send them back to security response center for researcher analysis. For malware designers, playing cat and mouse with security solutions in the post exploitation stage while hiding their backdoors from malware detection and forensics is a crucial mental challenge. Many methods used in the wild by hackers against researchers have already been discussed, for example using a COM hijack to obscure their malware, deploying a kernel hook-based rootkit, bypassing signature-based scanning, and others besides. There’s still no method robust enough to counter these techniques, as researchers often cannot totally understand how the malware works internally even if it’s caught and analyzed. Imagine a situation: malware acquires DRM protection, and thereby naturally damages itself when copied from the infected machine. Is it possible? How would it happen? In short, security vendors should be prepared to handle this situation within the Maginot line of their own defenses. Skrull is a malware DRM, that prevents Automatic Sample Submission by AV/EDR and Signature Scanning from Kernel. It generates launchers that can run malware on the victim using the Process Ghosting technique. Also, launchers are totally anti-copy and naturally broken when got submitted. Skrull ( v1.0BETA ) Latest [+] only support 64-bit PE right now. [hide][Hidden Content]]
