Dynamic Malware Analysis Using Cuckoo Sandbox

In the rapid use of the Internet the malware authors take the advantage by creating a new type of malwares and spreading it through the different ways to affect the millions of users. Malwares are difficult to detect and defensive mechanisms are often failed because of the signature based security solutions software's. In this paper we have shown how to use sandboxing technology to detect the untrusted code samples of the malware by performing the two approaches and determine their behavior by examiniging the behavior investigation of the malware by using the cuckoo sandbox. Cuckoo is a malicious code investigation tool which examines the malware more detail and provides the comprehensive results based on the series of tests made by it.
