It's official: Wednesday April 17th, 2013 from 7:00pm to 9:00pm will be the first Malware Analysis class at
Nova Labs. The
MAL100 - Basic Dynamic Analysis class will cover basic dynamic analysis, where students will run a simple malware sample in a hosted sandbox environment and learn how to identify changes in that environment with popular analysis utilities. The classes will be $25 per class and each session will be capped at
20 students 15 students (reduced due to space size constraints). Based on the popularity so far the first class may need to be repeated 3x!
There are plans to make the course content available to students
remotely, but that's still being worked out. UStream is highly likely,
but access to the lab environment is going to require students to be
on-site. The beauty of the class setup is all you need to bring is a Laptop with a VNC client. You'll get access to a virtual machine running on a Nova Labs server.
