Malware Analysis (MA)

Description

Malware is payload software that violates confidentiality, integrity, and availability of an operating system. Malware analysis is the study of this type of software attempting to elucidate on attribution (who made the software), delivery (how the software reached its host), and function (what the software does to a particular host). In this course, we will taxonomize the different subtypes of malware, understand the analysis techniques and their limitations, and dissect a malware virus, always within the principles of ethical hacking.
