    Malware analysis is the process of investigating the threat, intent and functionality of a given malware. This process will reveal the type, nature of malware and attack methodologies, etc., Which will enable incident response personnel, threat researchers and security analysts to quickly and effectively segregate and respond to security incidents, while finding the root cause of cyber attacks and improving their protection to protect their network infrastructure.<\/p>\n

    There are usually 3 types of malware analysis:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Static analysis analyzes malicious programs without running them, mainly using signature-based detection and heuristic detection techniques.<\/li>\n
    • Dynamic analysis analyzes the behavior of malware when executed in an isolated environment that does not affect the actual system.<\/li>\n
    • Hybrid analysis combines static and dynamic analysis, providing malware analysts with the advantages of both approaches.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

        You can control the privacy of your files, even locally or in the cloud. MetaDefender Core can be deployed locally, making it possible to analyze malicious files offline. Otherwise, using the MetaDefender Cloud platform, your files will be processed privately in temporary storage and deleted as soon as the analytics report is completed. This keeps confidential files private and keeps the scan results confidential, so criminals can’t use them for intelligence purposes.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

        The file’s suspicious behavior should be understood in its natural state. OPSWAT’s Sandbox technology provides enterprises with powerful dynamic analysis with error-avoidance techniques and flexible analysis configuration, bringing a detailed report on file behavior at execution time. In this way, the behavior of malicious content and executables can be monitored and understood, and enterprises can determine the best remediation path – before their systems are infected.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

        Our best-in-class Deep Content Disarm and Reconstruction (Deep CDR) technology not only helps optimize incident response flow by delivering cleaned versions of files, but also supports malware analysis using forensic information. You can use Deep CDR to analyze suspicious objects embedded in files, such as macros, hyperlinks and OLE objects, without executing them. File extensions are examined so that seemingly complex files don’t look simpler and flagged as malicious content, alerting organizations when they are under attack.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
