Frequently Asked Questions
What is malware analysis?
Malware analysis is studying malicious software to understand what it does, how it spreads and how to detect it. Results feed into detections, incident response and threat intelligence.
What is the difference between static and dynamic analysis?
Static analysis examines the file without running it, while dynamic analysis executes it in a controlled sandbox to observe behaviour. Analysts normally use both to get a complete picture.
How do I start learning malware analysis?
Begin with core concepts, a safe isolated lab and simple tools, then practise on samples. This beginner-friendly Codelivly room is free and walks you through those first steps.
