The sandbox captures various types of IOCs like “network communications,” “file system changes,” “registry modifications,” and “process behaviors,” enabling thorough threat assessment. The ANY.RUN malware analysis sandbox’s comprehensive network traffic monitoring capabilities also enable analysts to track data exfiltration patterns through detailed “HTTP/HTTPS” request logs found under the Network → HTTP Requests section. Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) are critical forensic artifacts that cybersecurity researchers use to “detect,” “investigate,” and “mitigate” security threats. The interactive “Sandbox” of “ANY.RUN” offers a comprehensive platform for collecting a wide array of ‘IOCs’ which provides analysts with a complete, detailed view of cyber threats. ”Network Indicators” are equally vital, as the DNS Requests, found under “Network → DNS Requests,” that expose domains and the malware attempts to access, not only that even it often unveils C2 infrastructure as well. This automatically extracts crucial IOCs like “C2 server URLs,” “MD5/SHA file hashes,” “malicious domains,” and “IP addresses” from the malware’s internal configuration files. In the bottom panel under “Files,” analysts can track “Dropped Executable Files,” revealing the malware’s “propagation” across the system. This comprehensive approach in the “ANY.RUN sandbox” enables thorough threat investigation and analysis.
