Overview

If you already have some basic reverse engineering and malware analysis knowledge and wish to go further, then this course is for you. I will take you from basic to intermediate level in reverse engineering and analyzing malware. You will learn using plenty of practical walk-throughs. The focus of this course will be on how to unpack malware. Most modern malware are packed in order to defeat analysis. Hence, this Intermediate Level Course provides the required knowledge and skills to unpack malware. All the needed tools will be introduced and explained. By the end of this course, you will have the intermediate level skill in malware analysis under your belt to further your studies in this field. Even if you do not intend to take up malware analysis as a career, still the knowledge and skills gained in reverse engineering and analysis would be beneficial to you to reverse software as well.Everything is highly practical. No boring theory or lectures. More like walk-throughs which you can replicate and follow along. We will focus on API Hooking and Memory Analysis and Tracing to determine where and when to dump memory after a malware has unpacked its payload into memory. In this course, we will be using Oracle Virtual Machine installed with Flare-VM. Take note that all software used in this course are free.Topics include:Types of Malware and TerminologiesDynamic and Static AnalysisAssembly Language Refresher and Malicious APIsAPI Hooking, Process Hijacking, Dumping MemoryFixing Section Alignments, Un-mapping and Re-Basing Dumped FilesEnumerating Breakpoints and Memory TracingHooking VirtualProtect, VirtualAlloc, GetProcAddress, CreateProcessInternalW and other common API'sUsing Scylla Plugin to Dump MemoryUsing Delphi Interactive ReconstructorDumping Memory from Memory Viewer, Process Hacker and Memory MapsAPI Enumeration Count Trick To Know When to DumpSelf-Injection and Remote Thread Injectionand more...This course is suitable for:Students who has already done a basic level malware analysis courseHackers looking for additional tools and techniques to reverse softwareReverse Engineers who want to venture into malware analysisThe prerequisites:Some basics in malware analysis or software reverse engineering.Windows PC with Virtual Machine and Flare-VM Installed.Note:If you do not have the basics of malware analysis, it is recommended to take my earlier course first, which is entitled:Reverse Engineering & Malware Analysis FundamentalsGo ahead and enroll now. I will see you inside!
