Modernize Your Malware Analysis
The Static Analysis vs. Dynamic Analysis Debate — And Why Next-Generation Binary Analysis is Now a Requirement.
The ultimate goal of security teams is to identify and mitigate threats as quickly and efficiently as possible. Unfortunately, increasingly sophisticated malware routinely evades organizations’ cyber defenses.
As malware becomes more advanced — and as files continue to grow in size and complexity and sheer volume — it’s time for SOC teams to reevaluate and evolve their approach to malware detection.
In this paper we’ll cover:
- Traditional static analysis: The pros and cons of traditional static analysis and reverse engineering tools
- Dynamic analysis/sandboxes: The goal of dynamic analysis / sandbox processing and where it falls short
- Next generation binary analysis: The use of automated binary deconstruction — and how it overcomes the limitations of conventional malware analysis techniques
