Briefly summarize the static analysis attempts to learn from a suspected binary.

Write a one-page report addressing the 5 questions below. APA format and a minimum of four sources

Typically, static analysis is incapable of giving a complete picture of the program’s behavior. In addition, malware creators can deliberately obstruct static analysis by means of packing, encryption, or obfuscation.

Use online references to learn about dynamic analysis. The following are good resources to use:

• Oktavianto, D., &Muhardianto, I. (2013). Cuckoo malware analysis: Analyze malware using Cuckoo Sandbox.(Links to an external site.)

Infosec Institute. (n.d.). Static malware analysis (Links to an external site.).

QUESTIONS

1. Briefly summarize the static analysis attempts to learn from a suspected binary.
2. What are the limitations of static analysis, or in other words, why is dynamic analysis needed

Use online references to learn about dynamic analysis. A good introduction is there in the following webpage:

Infosec Institute. (n.d.). Dynamic analysis techniques (Links to an external site.)

3. Give an example of program behavior that can be learned only through dynamic analysis and not static analysis.
4. Briefly summarize the risks of dynamic analysis.

Cuckoo Sandbox. (n.d.). Cuckoo sandbox book (Links to an external site.).

5,   Give an example of an included package in Cuckoo Sandbox. Suggested
