[Have you ever seen love like this?](http://bit.ly/ZVnwBR)

![her](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/her.png)

We [recently published](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/2014/11/wirelurker-new-era-os-x-ios-malware/#more-7247) a new research paper on WireLurker, a family of malware targeting both Mac OS and iOS systems for the past six months.

Shortly after we released the above research paper, Jaime Blasco from AlienVault Labs notified us about Windows executable file that contains WireLurker's command and control server address. After analyzing and investigating the sample, it is confirmed that it is an older version of WireLurker. Read the follow on post [here](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/2014/11/wirelurker-windows/#more-7274).

If you love great cybersecurity books we hope you will get involved in the Cybersecurity Canon by writing a review of your favorite and submitting it for consideration. [Rick Howard explains how](http://bit.ly/1tTLFFg).

Tsugunori Sugawara [on how PAN-DB will add more protection to your Palo Alto Networks Enterprise Security Platform](http://bit.ly/1yVJRfl) by protecting your network from advanced attacks and playing a critical role in the Cyber "Kill Chain."

Ask firewall administrators about their day-to-day challenges and sooner or later they will come around to a challenge that Matt Keil describes as policy chaos. [Here, he explores](http://bit.ly/13AJMUc) bringing a semblance oforder to this policy chaos.

There are many ways to look at cloud computing and what it means for your business. Overall, cloud governance means discovery, control and safe enablement. In [this post](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/2014/11/cloud-governance-means-discovery-control-safe-enablement/#more-7252) from Isabelle Dumont, learn tips on doing your security due diligence on cloud services.

![cloud](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/cloud-500x175.png)

We're on the road with VMware and VMUG in the U.S. and Canada to discuss how you can strengthen your data center security without compromising application performance. [Find an event near you](http://bit.ly/1rvJvpy) to learn best practices for implementing advanced security services in a SDDC, to hear customer insights for deploying VMware NSX with micro-segmentation, and to get hands-on experience test-driving an integrated VMware-Palo Alto Networks solution.

![nkwkggtw](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/nkwkggtw-500x101.jpg)

We're also on the road across North and South America with Citrix and CA for the next few weeks to talk about how enterprises can streamline virtualized data centers, radically simply network services for delivering critical applications and reduce complexity and cost, all without sacrificing performance and security. [Join us at an event near you](http://bit.ly/1t3ZQHK).
