Overview
In this lab, students will perform static and dynamic malware analysis. Analyzing malware is important for many reasons. Malware analysis in general is taking steps to find out more information about things like who crafted a malware payload or what types of actions the malware is trying to perform. Static analysis is where you look at the file contents and look at the strings and don’t execute the file. With dynamic malware analysis, you run the file (likely in a virtual environment not connected to a real network) to see the types of network and process actions that happen to the system.
