Malware Analysis & Sandboxing

An end-to-end malware workflow for static/dynamic analysis, YARA rule authoring, and safe sandbox setup.

Security & ReviewAdvanced★ 471⑂ 88AI score 9/10Last updated: Sep 7, 2026

What it does

  • Walks through static analysis step by step: file identification, hashing, threat-intel lookups, PE imports, string triage and entropy scoring.
  • Ships reference tables of suspicious Windows APIs grouped by injection, persistence, anti-analysis, C2, crypto, credential access and evasion.
  • Generates three tiers of YARA rules (hash-specific, family-level, network IOC) with proper meta blocks plus commands to test against benign binaries.
  • Interprets Cuckoo/CAPE sandbox reports: process trees, beaconing, registry/file changes, and maps observed behavior to MITRE ATT&CK technique IDs.
  • Classifies samples into families (ransomware, RAT, infostealer, cryptominer, dropper) and compares variants using ssdeep fuzzy hashing.
  • Provides a hardened lab blueprint: isolated VM, host-only networking, snapshots, INetSim/FakeNet, Regshot, plus anti-anti-VM tuning.
  • Outputs a standardized analysis report template with hashes, host/network IOCs and ATT&CK mapping.

Who it's for

  • SOC analysts, incident responders and threat hunters
  • Blue teamers who write their own YARA/Sigma detections
  • Security learners practicing malware triage in isolated labs

Examples

  1. "Triage this suspicious EXE: dump imports, strings and section entropy, then tell me how risky it looks."
  2. "Build a family-level YARA rule from these three loader samples and give me the false-positive test command."
  3. "Here's a CAPE JSON report — summarize behavior, map it to MITRE ATT&CK, and produce the IOC report block."

Try it now, no install

Paste this into Claude to use the skill without installing anything.

Read the instructions in this file and follow them to help me:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Masriyan/Claude-Code-CyberSecurity-Skill/HEAD/skills/05-malware-analysis/SKILL.md

What I want: (describe your task here)

If Claude can't open the link, open it yourself and paste the contents instead.

↓ If it works for you, download the ZIP below and install it. Then it runs on its own — no pasting each time.

Install in the Claude app (no terminal)
  1. Download the ZIP with the button below.
  2. In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
  3. Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.
↓ Download ZIP
Install in Claude Code

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the skills/05-malware-analysis folder from the GitHub repo Masriyan/Claude-Code-CyberSecurity-Skill into my ~/.claude/skills/malware-analysis-sandboxing/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/Masriyan/Claude-Code-CyberSecurity-Skill.git /tmp/ccs && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r /tmp/ccs/skills/05-malware-analysis ~/.claude/skills/malware-analysis

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Open a terminal and clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/Masriyan/Claude-Code-CyberSecurity-Skill.git
  2. Create the skills directory: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
  3. Copy just this skill: cp -r Claude-Code-CyberSecurity-Skill/skills/05-malware-analysis ~/.claude/skills/malware-analysis
  4. Install Python dependencies: pip install yara-python pefile python-magic requests ssdeep
  5. Optionally install the YARA CLI, ssdeep and Volatility 3 through your OS package manager.
  6. Important: before touching real samples, prepare a dedicated VM with host-only networking and a clean snapshot to restore after each detonation.
  7. Restart Claude Code and trigger it with a request like "statically analyze this suspicious binary and generate a YARA rule."
