Course Objective
What this programme helps you achieve
A hands-on 3 days programme that builds practical, job-ready capability in this area. Delivered through guided walkthroughs, worked examples and reusable checklists you can apply immediately.
UnderstandBuild a clear, structured understanding of the core concepts, terminology and drivers behind this domain.
ApplyTranslate the framework into practical actions, controls and working methods you can use on real engagements.
AssessEvaluate current-state maturity, identify gaps and prioritise the improvements that reduce the most risk.
DeliverProduce the artefacts, evidence and reporting expected of a competent practitioner in this area.
Market Need
Why this matters now
Malware Analysis Fundamentals: Static and Dynamic Analysis addresses a capability that organisations increasingly need but often lack in a structured, defensible form. Teams frequently rely on ad-hoc knowledge, scattered documents or vendor claims instead of a repeatable method.
This programme closes that gap. It gives participants a shared vocabulary, a practical method and a set of reusable artefacts so the organisation can operate this domain consistently rather than reactively.

Framework alignment: Hands-on labs with static and dynamic analysis tooling.
What makes this programme useful
01
Practical Focus
