Learn about traditional and mobile malware, the security threats they represent, state-of-the-art analysis and detection techniques, and the underground ecosystem that drives such a profitable but illegal business.
Malicious Software and its Underground Economy: Two Sides to Every Story is a short, introductory, and experimental (i.e., pilot) course featuring 6 lectures. Each lecture lasts roughly anything between 1h and 1.5h and is logically divided in a number of ~15 mins self-contained units. Although a non-negligible effort has been made to fulfill this breakdown, some units last definitely longer and require a bit more effort---just pause the video and take a break ;-)
In addition, the course features 6 multiple-choices mandatory quizzes (i.e., 1 per lecture) and 1 bonus quiz. Passing all the mandatory quizzes awards a "pass" mark of the course, while passing all the mandatory quizzes and the bonus one awards a "distinction" mark.

2Static analysis and its limitations
Students will look at the malware landscape of the early days and what effort and challenges the AV industry was facing to fight malware threats. The lecture covers static analysis as a first technique to analyze and detect malware; (basic) assembly and reverse engineering notions are provided with a look at basic techniques to fool the state-of-the-art disassembly algorithm, quickly highlighting the limits of static analysis, especially when focused on analyzing malware. A walk-through to reverse engineer an example program concludes the lecture.<BR><BR>Given the complexity of the topic and the fact the course is a short and introductory class on a vast topic, the aim of the lecture is to provide a broad overview, with a few detailed insights wherever appropriate.<BR><BR><B>Lecture outline</b><BR><BR>1.

3Dynamic analysis and its limitations
While looking at how the malware landscape has been evolving, students will be given an introduction at dynamic analysis, a complementary technique to static analysis to fight malware threats. Packing and algorithmic-agnostic unpacking is introduced as an initial step toward full dynamic analysis. The lecture quickly mentions sandboxes and limits of dynamic analysis and sandboxes, to finally conclude with a brief overview of a particular academic research state-of-the-art for malware protection.<BR><BR>Given the complexity of the topic and the fact the course is a short and introductory class on a vast topic, the aim of the lecture is to provide a broad overview, with a few detailed insights wherever appropriate.<BR><BR><B>Lecture outline</b><BR><BR>1.
