Malware Analysis Videos

[Cowpipe]

I'm thinking of starting up a YouTube account with videos dedicated to malware analysis....

A lot of people on here do reviews of antivirus software which I really love to watch, but it seems not many people review the viruses themselves, certainly not in any analytical detail. Anyway I've seen a few of you wanting try out Sandboxie etc so thought perhaps there might be some interest

I used to run a malware analysis course once before, teaching people how to analyse everything from Binary files, to PDF exploits to macro viruses (from days gone by) and online exploit code too (for example malicious javascript unpacking), analysing malicious flash file and java drive by. Would probably include some android app analysis too if there was interest

Anyway just another crazy idea of mine

Great idea, you have my support

you have my support

+1! I'm sure the community would be able to supply you with samples you need for analysis as well!

 

[Manzai]

You have my support !

 

[Dubseven]

A nice idea
Good luck

Do it, I will post some info about this soon. (make a post about it)

I'll say:
- Be unique;
- Don't be afraid to fail;
- Never give up.

Always learn new things ^_^

Thanks again everyone for the support, has given me the boost I need to start working on these videos right away

And thanks for the advice @OpenSecLabs, they'll certainly have a unique flavour to them, some say it's a good thing, others hate it but it's just the way I can't help but infuse things with my personality

@Cowpipe
Please let us know when the first video is finished
And let us know if we can help you somehow.
i.e. We can provide some samples or help you translating subtitles ...

I'll definitely post up here when I've got a video online, have to get my analysis environment back up and running again so within the next few days with a bit of luck It would be great to take requests for samples to be analysed and any help in translating subtitles is always welcome, thanks very much!
