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.
What you will get
Deliverables that keep every stakeholder aligned
We deliver more than raw findings: you receive a complete package that leadership, engineers, and auditors can all act on immediately.
Reporting package
Evidence-rich documentation for executives and technical teams.
Executive summary that explains business impact, key risks, and the
narrative behind the assessment.
Vulnerability summary with grouped issues, risk owners, severity,
and time-to-fix guidance.
Technical analysis that includes screenshots, observations, attack
flow notes, and proof-of-exploitation where appropriate.
Metrics & scoring covering CVSS, likelihood/impact rationales,
and remediation priority to unblock quick decisions.
Remediation toolkit
Clear next steps, mapped to the people fixing the issues.
Excel remediation tracker that consolidates every vulnerability with
owners, status, due dates, and comments so progress is easy to measure.
Prioritized backlog with quick wins, blocked items, and prerequisites
highlighted to reduce remediation friction.
Restitution meeting to walk through findings live, align on
fixes, and answer engineer questions while the context is fresh.
Optional retest to validate patches and refresh CVSS scores so the
final report reflects your latest posture.

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
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.).
