Detect sandbox evasion techniques in malware samples by analyzing timing checks, VM artifact queries, user interaction detection, and sleep inflation patterns from Cuckoo/AnyRun behavioral reports
Sandbox evasion (MITRE ATT&CK T1497) allows malware to detect analysis environments and alter behavior to avoid detection. This skill analyzes behavioral reports from Cuckoo Sandbox and AnyRun for evasion indicators including timing-based checks (GetTickCount, QueryPerformanceCounter, sleep inflation), VM artifact detection (registry keys, MAC address prefixes, process names like vmtoolsd.exe), user interaction checks (mouse movement, keyboard input), and environment fingerprinting (disk size, CPU count, RAM). Detection rules flag samples exhibiting these behaviors for deeper manual analysis.
