Finally got set up with a VM after a boot/CPU scare. It was easier than I expected and now I’m finally getting the tooling I want on to the machine. I think my first order of business for analysis is looking at old malware and analyzing it.

Tools so far:

• PeStudio
• Process Hacker
• ProcMon
• ProcDot
• AutoRuns
• Wireshark
• x64DbG
• Ghidra
• Radare
