Malware Analysis
When malware hits your business, you need to know exactly what it does, how it got in, and what it left behind. We analyze malicious code in depth — so you can respond accurately, remediate completely, and prevent reinfection.
We examine malicious files and code from every angle — combining static, dynamic, and reverse engineering techniques to build a complete picture of the threat.
Static Analysis
Examining malware without executing it — dissecting file structure, strings, imports, obfuscation techniques, and embedded artifacts to understand its design and intent.
Dynamic & Behavioral Analysis
Running malware in a controlled sandbox environment to observe its real behavior — file system changes, registry modifications, network connections, and process activity.
Reverse Engineering
Decompiling and disassembling malicious code to understand its logic at a deeper level — unpacking obfuscated payloads, analyzing custom protocols, and recovering attacker intent.
Malware Family Identification
Identifying what malware family or strain you're dealing with — ransomware, RAT, infostealer, loader, or otherwise — and linking it to known threat actor groups where possible.
IOC Extraction
Extracting indicators of compromise — IPs, domains, file hashes, registry keys, and behavioral signatures — that your security tools can use to detect and block the threat across your environment.
Malware Analysis Report
A clear, structured report covering findings, behavior, extracted IOCs, and remediation guidance — actionable for both your security team and management.
Malware analysis is for businesses that have encountered a suspicious file or active infection and need to understand exactly what they're dealing with.
Your endpoint detection flagged a suspicious file and you need to know if it's a real threat and what it does
You've had an infection and need to understand the full scope of what the malware did before you can remediate
You need IOCs extracted so your security tools can detect and block the same threat across your network
You're responding to a ransomware attack and need to understand the payload to assess recovery options
Your security team encountered an unknown or heavily obfuscated sample they can't analyze internally
You need documented malware analysis findings for an insurance claim, legal case, or regulatory report
How We Analyze Malware
Sample Submission
You securely submit the suspicious file or provide access to the affected system for sample collection.
Static Analysis
We examine the file without executing it — structure, strings, imports, and any embedded payloads.
Dynamic Analysis
The sample runs in an isolated sandbox while we monitor every action it takes on the system and network.
Deep Reverse Engineering
Where needed, we go deeper — decompiling code, unpacking obfuscation, and recovering attacker logic.
Report & IOC Delivery
You receive a full analysis report plus extracted IOCs ready to deploy in your security tools.
Common Questions
What types of malware can you analyze?
We analyze executables (EXE, DLL), scripts (PowerShell, VBS, JS, Python), documents with embedded macros (Office, PDF), and other file types encountered in real-world incidents. If you're unsure whether a file can be analyzed, get in touch and we'll advise.
Is it safe to send you a malware sample?
Yes. We have a secure submission process for handling malicious files. You should never open or run a suspicious file yourself — submit it to us as-is and we handle it safely in isolated environments purpose-built for malware analysis.
What are IOCs and how do we use them?
IOCs (Indicators of Compromise) are specific artifacts tied to the malware — IP addresses it connects to, domains it uses, file hashes, registry keys it creates, and behavioral patterns. Once extracted, your security team can add these to your SIEM, EDR, or firewall to detect and block the same threat elsewhere in your environment.
Can malware analysis help with ransomware recovery?
Yes. Understanding the ransomware strain, how it encrypted files, and whether it exfiltrated data before encrypting is critical for making informed recovery decisions. Our analysis provides that clarity — including whether decryption tools exist for the specific variant you've been hit with.
How long does malware analysis take?
A standard analysis covering static and dynamic examination typically takes two to four days. More complex samples requiring deep reverse engineering may take longer. For active incidents, we prioritize turnaround and will give you an honest timeline after reviewing the sample.
