Description

Malware analysis is the use of tools and programs to understand the behavior and purpose of suspicious files. The process is designed to identify and mitigate any potential threats. This hands-on process enables analysts to understand malware functionality, purpose, and potential impact. To achieve this, security teams use malware analysis tools. They typically rate and score specific malware samples in a closed environment called a sandbox.

Malware analysis is the study or process of determining the function, origin, and potential impact of a particular malware sample, such as a virus, worm, Trojan horse, rootkit, or backdoor.
