Establishes safe practices for acquiring, storing, transferring, and disposing of malware samples: password-protected archives, neutralized extensions, hashing for identity, and chain-of-custody. Activates for requests about safely storing or sharing malware, sample handling hygiene, or defanging artifacts.

Do not use these conventions as a substitute for an isolated detonation environment; safe storage prevents accidents but analysis still requires an isolated lab.
sha256sum, certutil, or the bundled script).infected.sample.exe → sample.exe.bin or
sample.exe_) so the OS will not execute it on a stray click.hxxp://, 1.2.3[.]4, evil[.]com.A sample's identity is its SHA-256, not its filename. Compute hashes immediately:
python scripts/analyst.py hash sample.exe
# md5, sha1, sha256, size, ssdeep-like size bucket
Rename the working copy to its SHA-256 so identity travels with the file:
mv sample.exe 9f86d0818...<sha256>.bin
7z a -p"infected" -mhe=on <sha256>.7z <sha256>.bin
# -mhe=on encrypts filenames too
Keep the loose, neutralized copy only inside the lab; the archive is the storage/transfer form.
Capture where the sample came from, when, and who handled it. The script can emit a JSON metadata record:
python scripts/analyst.py record <sha256>.bin --source "MalwareBazaar" --case CASE-001
When pasting URLs/IPs into a report or ticket, defang them:
python scripts/analyst.py defang ioc.txt
# http://evil.com/x -> hxxp://evil[.]com/x
7z l -slt <sha256>.7z shows encrypted headers (filenames not visible without password).-mhe=on), which leaks the sample name and your naming

Reverses Android malware: unpacking APKs, decompiling DEX bytecode to readable Java, auditing the manifest for abused permissions and components, and locating dynamically loaded or native payloads. Activates for requests to analyze an APK, decompile DEX, or investigate a suspicious Android app.

Analyzes API call traces from a sandbox or API monitor (JSON) to group calls by category, reconstruct high-level behaviors (process injection, file drops, network, crypto), and flag suspicious call sequences. Activates for requests to analyze an API trace, interpret sandbox API logs, or identify behavior from Win32/Native API calls.

Analyzes Windows Authenticode signatures on PE files: checking for a signature, reading the signer certificate chain, detecting revoked/expired/stolen certs, and recognizing signature-stripping and catalog-signing abuse. Activates for requests to analyze a code signature, verify Authenticode, or assess signer trust on a PE.

Analyzes banking trojan webinject configurations to extract targeted institutions, injected JavaScript/HTML, and data-theft hooks, mapping the fraud workflow. Activates for requests to analyze banking trojan webinjects, parse a webinject config, or map targeted banks and credential-theft injections.

Analyzes Python-based malware packaged as PyInstaller/py2exe executables by detecting the packer, locating the embedded archive, and identifying bundled .pyc modules for extraction and decompilation. Activates for requests to analyze compiled Python malware, unpack a PyInstaller binary, or extract pyc modules from a frozen Python executable.

Analyzes cryptojacking/coinminer malware by extracting mining pool endpoints (stratum), wallet addresses, algorithm and miner identifiers (XMRig and forks), and persistence or resource-control settings from static strings and config. Activates for requests to analyze a cryptominer, extract mining pool and wallet IOCs, or identify coinminer configuration.
