REMnux – a Linux distribution based on Ubuntu, incorporates many free tools for analyzing Windows and Linux malware, examining browser-based threats such as obfuscated JavaScript, exploring suspicious document files and taking apart other malicious artifacts.
Investigators can also use the distro to intercept suspicious network traffic in an isolated lab when performing behavioral malware analysis.
The REMnux distribution includes many free tools useful for examining malicious software. These utilities are set up and tested to make it easier for you to perform malware analysis tasks without needing to figure out how to install them. The tools installed on REMnux can help you:
– Examine browser malware
– Analyze malicious document files
– Extract and decode suspicious artifacts
– Handle laboratory network interactions
– Review multiple malware samples
– Examine properties and contents of suspicious files
– Investigate Linux and Windows malware
– Perform memory forensics
The project let’s you use the tools in two ways:
– via the OVA virtual appliance
– via set of applications which can be installed on the top of Ubuntu distribution.
REMnux 7.0 released in July 21, 2020.
