[QUOTE="upnorth, post: 937126, member: 38832"] Great start, with a book! I'm not 100% sure on your previous knowledge, but since it sounds like you never dealt with malware samples before, finish read the book and I would also strongly suggest you simply keep learn the basic of that Virtual Machine ( VM ) and do some basic install of ordinary softwares. VMWare is normally a very good tool, but as with most tools it helps to know them. Test also a service called AnyRun. This is for sure no " secrets ", but a Online test environment platform. [URL unfurl="true"]https://any.run/[/URL] AnyRun also got access to samples. My advice on that specific part is, run/test them there! It's great to learn the basics on how some samples work. If you download them, you do automatic risk your own main/host system. There is of course disclaimers about this, but AnyRun itself is way more safe and secure then your own system. Start learn how to use/interpret results on VirusTotal. That will help later on. Good luck! (y) [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.virustotal.com[/URL] [/QUOTE]
