This course will provide a foundational understanding of malicious software, how malware has shaped the global cyber security landscape, and its future impact. Discussions and hands-on exercises will demonstrate malware analysis processes and their complexities as well as illustrate how to appropriately size, design, and build an analytical capability best suited for your organization. Participants will prepare an analysis test-bed and analyze multiple malware samples.
