YARA is a tool aimed at helping malware researchers identify and classify malware samples. It creates descriptions of malware families, called rules, based on textual or binary patterns; each rule consists of strings and a boolean expression. YARA is multi-platform, running on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X, and can be used via its command-line interface or from Python scripts with the yara-python extension.
A guide covering Sandboxie-Plus, software that runs untrusted programs in unprivileged containers. It explains downloading and installing the software, setting up a sandbox, installing an app inside it, and running the sandboxed app or game. The guide notes the software is only available for Windows and that premium features require support to keep permanent access.
Jotti's malware scan is a free service for scanning suspicious files with several anti-virus programs. Users can submit up to five files at once, with a 250MB limit per file. All submitted files are shared with anti-virus companies so the detection accuracy of their products can be improved.
Farbar Recovery Scan Tool, or FRST, is a portable application for Windows XP through Windows 10 that runs in normal or safe mode to diagnose malware issues. It can also run in the Windows Recovery Environment to diagnose and fix boot issues. It displays detailed information about registry loading points, services, driver services, Netsvcs entries, known DLLs, drives and partition specifications.
Winitor's pestudio is a malware initial assessment tool. It helps identify key indicators of Windows executable files to speed up malware assessment workflows. The page states it has been enhanced since 2009.
Sandboxie-Plus is open source sandbox-based isolation software for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows NT-based operating systems. It creates an isolated operating environment in which applications can be run or installed without permanently modifying the local or mapped drive, allowing controlled testing of untrusted programs and web surfing. Development has continued under David Xanatos since the project became open source. Two builds exist: Classic with an MFC-based UI and Plus with a Qt-based UI.
