This article explains fileless malware—memory-resident attacks that abuse trusted OS tools (PowerShell, WMI, Mshta, Rundll32, etc.)—why traditional file-based detection and EDR can struggle against them, and how organizations can reduce risk through attack-surface reduction, stronger identity controls, behavioral monitoring of LotL activity, and memory-based attack prevention; it concludes with a Morphisec AMTD product pitch.
