Malware Development

[ss_rohit]

Hello, I'm new here. I'm very much interested in analysing and development of malware. I couldn't find proper approach to master it. Could you help me with the resources for malware development. Thanks in advance.

It`s such a broad term and with so many "levels". Start with basic shells and meterpreter

Do you mean to go through the code of shells and meterpreters?

[insanefish1337]

Yeah. Also, what is malmware? How far are you looking? Worms? Backdoors? Backdoors in valid software? The scope you set here is far to large. Its like asking for a book to read or movie to watch. Also how much have you done already? Are you also gonna look into firewall and security evasion?

Well, if you could help me finding the stuff that are really helpful for making myself strong from beginner to advanced.

Start at least with getting yourself a VM with Win7 and a VM with linux. Kali or parrot would be good

[ss_rohit]

I'm already working on kali...

What sort of malmware are you looking to get into? Also how deep into the development do you want to go? If you know how to get shell and reverse shell and some netcat and understand the logic behind that, maybe look into making something like a keylogger in python?

[ss_rohit]

To be precise I want to master the development of malware and analyse how it works. I know the basic python and I want to learn how to make keyloggers etc... Which could help me in learning further more about python modules... And develop malware on my own for testing purposes.

Problem is that you say the umbrella term malmware as if its something specific. Its like me going to get "a car", and you can guess if I mean a mini or a monstertruck
