Examining a piece of malware for strings (sequences of printable characters) can reveal a few clues about what the malware does, or what it is capable of doing. Part three started disassembling the functions to see how closely their behaviour matched the predictions in part two, but sadly ended just as things were getting exciting. In part four, the saga continues. Continue Reading

Examining a piece of malware for strings (sequences of printable characters) can reveal a few clues about what the malware does, or what it is capable of doing. Part two predicted the behaviour of some functions, based on which strings they referenced. Part three will start to disassemble these functions to see how closely the predicted behaviour  matches their actual behaviour. Continue Reading

Examining a piece of malware for strings (sequences of printable characters) can reveal a few clues about what the malware does, or what it is capable of doing. Part two demonstrates one way of finding the functions that reference the strings, and uses this information to hazard a guess at what those functions do. Continue Reading
