⛔ Why Wannacry Still Matters

Let’s be real – cyber attacks are getting crazier by the day. But when we talk about impact, one name always hits the hall of fame: Wannacry. It's like the OG of ransomware, locking down systems all over the world in 2017 and costing billions. So yeah, it’s not just about history. It’s a goldmine of learning if you're trying to understand the anatomy of a cyber attack.

This course takes you back to that chaos and shows you exactly how to analyze malware behavior. But not in some over-the-top theoretical way — nah. You’ll be spinning up your own virtual lab, investigating an actual sample, digging into files, and seeing what really happens when Wannacry hits.

🛠️ What You’ll Get Your Hands On

• Real-time live analysis of an infected Windows machine
• Static analysis of malware — find out what’s inside the executable
• Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) — and how to spot them fast
• Sandbox analysis: see exactly what the ransomware’s doing behind the scenes
• Build your own incident response report like a pro
• Remediation tips that actually work

All that in just 5.5 hours of content, plus downloadable resources and one article to back it all up. Pretty solid, right?

🔍 Why This Course Is Different

This isn’t some dry academic breakdown. It’s gritty, hands-on, and rooted in real-world situations. It’s for folks who actually wanna do the work, not just read about it.

The instructor guides you through every step of the investigation. You won’t just watch — you’ll do. You’ll build your own environment (yup, even on your personal machine if you want), capture artifacts, analyze registry changes, and dive deep into what makes ransomware tick.

🧠 What You’ll Learn

• How to quickly triage a malware infection
• Identifying Windows artifacts that reveal what went wrong
• Using tools like Process Monitor, Autoruns, Wireshark (they’re free!)
• Understanding sandbox behavior — from processes to network traffic
• Creating clean, professional summary reports for your team or clients
• Figuring out how to respond to future threats like a seasoned IR analyst

💡 Who's This Course For?

If you’ve got even a spark of curiosity about infosec or malware analysis, this course is def for you. But here’s a more specific breakdown:

• Security Operations Center (SOC) members looking to level up
• Newbies in incident response who wanna get their hands dirty
• InfoSec students needing a practical edge
• Anyone curious about malware and wants to explore without getting burned

🖥️ What You’ll Need

No need to break the bank. You’ll only need:

• A basic understanding of Windows (files, processes, registry)
• Some virtualization tool like VirtualBox or VMWare
• Just a bit of patience and that nerdy urge to dig deep

You don’t need to be a malware expert. Heck, you don’t even need prior IR experience. This course was made to give you quick wins and help you build confidence — one investigation at a time.

📚 Why It’s Worth Your Time

Listen, malware analysis can take weeks or months. But incident response? That’s all about fast moves and accurate decisions. This course doesn’t try to turn you into a full-blown reverse engineer — instead, it trains your eyes to spot the bad stuff, react with clarity, and keep your systems safe when the fire breaks out.

Even better, these skills are instantly transferable to other threats. Ransomware families change, but the tactics? Kinda stay the same. Once you’ve got the analysis flow down, you’ll be ready for whatever cyber chaos comes next.

📦 What's Inside
