How to Detect Cryptomining in your Environment

Cryptominers are built to turn computing power into revenue. To make cryptomining a profitable venture, cyber criminals are writing and distributing malware to steal computing resources to mine for cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Monero by attacking victims' endpoints, public cloud accounts, and websites. Through various attack vectors, cyber attackers can turn compromised systems into a silent zombie army of cryptocurrency miners. Unless you have advanced threat detection capabilities to detect crypto-mining activities on your endpoints, in the cloud and on premises, you might be unknowingly sharing your valuable computing resources with cryptomining criminals.
