Udemy - Malware Analysis Static Dynamic and Memory Techniques

• Basic knowledge of Windows operating system and computer networks is helpful but not required.
  
• A computer with at least 8GB RAM to run virtual machines smoothly.
  
• Willingness to learn and follow lab safety best practices when analyzing malware.
  

• Examine malware binaries without execution using static techniques.
• Perform sandboxed execution to observe runtime behavior safely.
• Use memory forensics to uncover hidden processes, injected code, and persistence mechanisms.
• Analyze real-world malware samples step by step in a controlled lab environment.
• Build a solid foundation for careers in cybersecurity, reverse engineering, and malware research .
  
  By the end of this course, you’ll have hands-on experience dissecting malware like a professional analyst, using industry-standard tools and methodologies to understand, detect, and defend against cyber threats.
  Ideal for aspiring malware analysts, cybersecurity students, and professionals looking to strengthen their practical skills in malware research and digital forensics.
  What You’ll Learn
  • Static Analysis
    • Explore PE files and executable structures
    • Identify strings, imports, and obfuscation techniques
    • Detect malware capabilities without running it
  • Dynamic Analysis
    • Safely execute malware in controlled environments
    • Monitor network traffic, file system changes, and registry modifications
    • Detect persistence techniques and payload delivery methods
