In the previous rooms of this module, we learned about the basics of computer architecture and Assembly language. While those topics are essential building blocks to learning malware analysis, we will start analyzing malware starting from this room.
Pre-requisites
Before starting this room, it is recommended that you complete the following rooms.
Learning Objectives
The first step in analyzing malware is generally to look at its properties without running it. This type of analysis is called because the malware is static and is not running. We will cover basic in this room. In particular, we will cover the following topics.
- Lab setup for malware analysis
- Searching for strings in a malware
- Fingerprinting malware through hashes
- Signature-based detection mechanisms
- Extracting useful information from the header
So without further ado, let's move on to the next task to learn about setting up a malware analysis lab.
