Malware Reverse Engineering, Code Analysis, & Development

Research Areas: End System Security, Prevention, Detection and Response,

Principal Investigator: James Goldman

In order to fully understand how malware functions, the Malware Analysis team must perform reverse engineering and code analysis before malware development capabilities can be exercised. Malware is being developed in a modular approach, dissecting the various functional stages of malware execution into components. Malware will be tested in terms of its capabilities to avoid detection and to utilize anti-forensic techniques.
