Malware analysis is a challenge as it is. But after your hard work on cracking a new sample, it is important to present all your results to the company and colleagues. And today, we will talk about how to write a malware analysis report in one click. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to write a malware analysis report?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To write a typical malware analysis report, you should cover the following points:
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Summary<\/strong>. Provide the highlights of your research with the malicious program\u2019s name, origin, and main characteristics.  <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. General information<\/strong>. Include malware type, file\u2019s name, size, and current antivirus detection capabilities. Don\u2019t forget about hashes<\/a>: MD5, SHA1, SHA256, and SSDEEP. And if a sample has different family names, it\u2019s worth mentioning them, too. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Characteristics<\/strong>. Write how the sample infects a system, self-preserves, distributes, communicates with servers, collects data, etc. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Dependencies<\/strong>. Note malware functionality with the required OS version, software set, executables and initialization files, DLLs, list of URLs, and scripts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Behavior activities.<\/strong> Give a review of the behavior activities like what executable files malware drops, if it checks the language, runs injected code in another process, or changes any settings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Static information. <\/strong>Code analysis results, headers information.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Additional data<\/strong>. Attach screenshots, logs, string lines excerpts, etc. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  8. IOCs<\/strong>. Show indicators of compromise that are necessary for successful detection and future prevention.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
