Hello people, welcome back to the course on absolute basic concepts of malware analysis.



2

00:00:07,150 --> 00:00:12,940

In this module, we will learn about some of the essential knowledge that will help us in understanding

00:00:12,940 --> 00:00:14,410

malware analysis better.



4

00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:21,450

So, before heading into learning actual malware analysis, we will establish few fundamentals like

We will take a look at the challenges faced while working with binary files.



9

00:00:37,650 --> 00:00:44,200

We will then learn about the most widely used executable format, that is the PE file structure.
