This popular malware analysis course has helped forensic investigators, incident responders and IT administrators acquire practical skills for examining malicious programs that target Microsoft Windows. This training also teaches how to reverse-engineer Web browser malware implemented in JavaScript and Flash, as well as malicious documents, such as PDF and Microsoft Office files. The course builds a strong foundation for reverse-engineering malicious software using a variety of system and network monitoring utilities, a disassembler, a debugger and other tools for turning malware inside-out.
The malware analysis process taught in this class helps incident responders assess the severity and repercussions of a situation that involves malicious software and plan recovery steps. Forensics investigators also learn how to understand key characteristics of malware discovered during the examination, including how to establish indicators of compromise (IOCs) for scoping and containing the incident.
