About Each Feature
Support for Samples that have Undergone Dynamic Unpacking
AutoFocus™ now allows you to leverage analysis data from files that have undergone WildFire® analysis using dynamic unpacking. Dynamic unpacking is a cloud-only environment that unpacks and deobfuscates files that have been encoded using custom and open source file compression or packing tools. This provides improved coverage by analyzing files that might have previously dropped as a result of code obfuscation.
The nested analysis report section has tabs for the environments used to analyze a file. Selecting the
Dynamic Unpacking
tab displays the sample’s observed behavior and lists each activity the sample performed when executed in the WildFire cloud.
  1. Start an AutoFocus search to view a list of samples.
  2. Click a sample to view detailed analysis information about the file.
  3. If a sample was analyzed using dynamic unpacking, a tab labeled
    Dynamic Unpacking
    is shown as one of the analysis environments. The subheadings show the analysis details associated with the new environment. You can expand any of the subsections for additional information.
