Description

In this video course, we  cover advanced malware analysis topics. Towards this goal, we first  understand the behavior of different classes of malware. Such knowledge  helps us to easily categorize malware based on its characteristic. We  see how sophisticated malware can use techniques to either evade  detection or increase its damage and access to the system. Then we learn advanced techniques in static and dynamic malware analysis  and cover the details and powerful features of OllyDbg, IDA Pro, and  WINDBG. We also explore defense mechanisms against malware, create a  signature for malware, and set up an intrusion detection system (IDS) to  prevent attacks.
