Malware Analysis

Understand, contain, and neutralize malicious code through deep technical investigation.

Overview

Malware is one of the most common and dangerous tools used by attackers to compromise systems, steal data, or disrupt operations. Effective defense requires understanding how malicious code behaves, propagates, and communicates.

Our Malware Analysis service dissects suspicious files, executables, or memory samples to uncover their internal mechanisms, persistence strategies, and impact potential. By combining static and dynamic analysis, reverse engineering, and behavioral observation, we transform unknown threats into actionable intelligence.

The insights gained support rapid incident response, informed containment, and improved defenses through custom detection rules and security hardening recommendations.

Malware

Sample Collection & Validation

Securely receive and sanitize suspicious files or memory dumps for controlled, isolated analysis.

Static Fingerprinting

Extract headers, strings, imports, packer/obfuscator traces, and quick IoCs such as hashes or embedded URLs.

Behavioral Observation

Execute samples safely in instrumented sandboxes to monitor process, file, registry, and network activity.

Anti-analysis Handling

Identify and bypass anti-debugging or anti-VM techniques to fully reveal hidden behaviors.

Payload Capability Mapping

Identify persistence methods, credential theft, lateral movement, exfiltration, and destructive features.

Telemetry & Detection Tuning

Generate YARA and Sigma rules, IoCs, and SIEM/EDR detection signatures for improved defense.

Threat Attribution

Correlate findings with known threat actor TTPs and campaigns for contextual intelligence.

Reporting & Forensic Enrichment

Deliver detailed technical analysis and recommendations for remediation and detection improvement.

Testing Methodology

1

Scoping & Kick-off

Securely obtain malware samples and prepare isolated analysis environments (VMs, sandboxes, emulators) ensuring safe handling procedures.

2

Static Analysis

Analyze code structure, headers, and metadata without execution. Extract strings, hashes, and embedded configurations to understand inherent traits.

3

Dynamic Analysis

Execute samples in sandboxed environments to observe real-time behavior, persistence mechanisms, and command-and-control communication.

4

Reverse Engineering (Optional)

Decompile and inspect code to uncover deeper logic, obfuscation methods, or custom encryption algorithms.

5

Reporting & Debrief

Provide a detailed report summarizing methodology, behavioral analysis, IoCs, detection signatures, and containment recommendations. Present findings to both technical and incident response teams.

6

Retest (Optional)

Validate that containment and remediation measures successfully neutralize the threat and confirm no persistence remains.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

The duration depends on the complexity of the malware sample. Simple or commodity malware can be analyzed within 2–3 business days, while obfuscated, encrypted, or advanced persistent threats (APT) may require 7–10 days for full static, dynamic, and reverse-engineering analysis.

Every piece of malware tells a story, who created it, what it targets, and how it operates. Malware analysis transforms threats into intelligence by revealing their behavior, persistence, and communication patterns. It equips you to understand attacker tactics and close the exact vulnerabilities they exploited.

We analyze a broad range of samples including executables, scripts, documents with macros, browser extensions, mobile apps, and memory dumps. Each is processed in an isolated sandbox or emulator tailored to its environment (Windows, Linux, Android, etc.).
