COURSE DESCRIPTION

Enter the world of malware analysis and develop defensive tools in Go in a safe and ethical manner with the Malware Analysis & Defensive Tools with Go course on Courseinger. This course focuses on understanding how malware is designed from an analytical perspective (for risk assessment) and how to build detection and response tools in Go—without providing any instructions or examples usable for attacking or bypassing security solutions.

You will learn the principles of static and dynamic code analysis within a sandbox environment, how to extract Indicators of Change (IOCs), analyze sample behavior at a secure level, and write Go defensive tools such as file scanners, log converters, and network analysis files. The course emphasizes ethics and regulations and requires all experiments to be conducted in a lab with explicit permission.

🎯 What you will learn (learning outcomes):

Principles of malware analysis (static & dynamic) in a safe and systematic way.

How to set up a sandbox analysis lab to run and analyze samples safely.

Extracting and documenting Indicators of Change (IOCs) and incident response scenarios.

Developing defensive Go tools to automate analysis, log collection, and behavioral attribute extraction (providing malicious code or bypass methods).

Understanding how malware thinks from a defensive perspective to design better detection rules and faster response systems.

Writing professional technical reports and improving internal security policies.
