Malware Analysis & Mobile Malware Investigations
Malware plays a central role in many cyber incidents—from ransomware and data theft to insider attacks and unauthorized surveillance. Guardian Forensics provides advanced malware analysis and mobile malware investigations to uncover the source, scope, and impact of malicious software across computers, mobile devices, and cloud-connected environments.
Comprehensive Malware Forensics
We conduct in-depth forensic analysis to identify how malware entered a system, what it was designed to do, how it spread, and whether data was exfiltrated or destroyed. Our team uses both static (code-level) and dynamic (behavioral) analysis techniques to evaluate malware artifacts and assess their operational footprint.
Malware Analysis & Mobile Malware Investigations
- Malware classification (ransomware, spyware, keyloggers, trojans, etc.)
- Timeline reconstruction of infection and lateral movement
- Reverse engineering of malicious executables and payloads
- Registry, event log, and file system analysis
- Memory forensics and volatile data recovery
- Attribution and origin tracking for insider or external threats
We use industry-standard tools such as FTK, Magnet AXIOM, Volatility, Ghidra, Cuckoo Sandbox, IDA Pro, and X-Ways to ensure forensic soundness and investigative depth.
Mobile Malware Analysis
Smartphones are now frequent targets for malware—used to spy, track, or compromise user accounts and data. Our mobile malware analysis capabilities extend to both iOS and Android devices, focusing on detecting malicious apps, spyware (e.g., Pegasus, FlexiSPY), sideloaded software, and unauthorized OS-level modifications.
Mobile malware analysis includes:
- Detection of surveillance apps and SMS/call interceptors
- Deep-dive into iOS and Android system logs, crash reports, and app containers
- Cross-validation with cloud sync logs and third-party application activity
- Analysis of unauthorized root/jailbreak activity
- Review of sideloaded APKs/unsigned iOS apps
- Timeline reconstruction of infection, including delivery vectors (text, links, downloads)
