[QUOTE="cruelsister, post: 926994, member: 7463"] Thank you (you make me blush)! But regarding tests such as these, Quantity of samples used frequently precludes the quality of the test. Better would be to freshly code malware of diverse types, shut down any possibility of Cloud lookup (if available), then run the samples. Not having a product call home to upload the fresh malware is essential so that the test can be re-run to verify reproducibility. As I have done a video or two in the past myself, I assure you that this is a very time consuming process and not a popular one for many to view as is the ransom gang-bang approach as was seen in this one. (a final speculation- I noticed a number of BitCoin miner thingies were run. These will often utilize WMI which may cause changes that are not necessarily malicious.) [/QUOTE]
