Malware Forensic 

Offered by Hawk Eye Forensic, Delhi NCR – India’s Trusted Digital Forensics Partner

Overview

Malware Forensics is the process of examining, analyzing, and understanding the behavior, origin, and impact of malicious software (malware) in digital environments. At Hawk Eye Forensic, we offer comprehensive malware forensic services to detect, contain, analyze, and document malware attacks across computers, mobile devices, and networks.

Whether you’re a business hit by ransomware, a government agency under targeted attack, or an individual facing data loss — our expert digital forensic analysts are equipped to uncover and neutralize malware threats effectively and discreetly.

Key Malware Forensic Services We Offer

Malware Detection & Identification

We identify all types of malware including:

Viruses

A virus is a malicious program that attaches itself to files or software. When the file is opened, the virus spreads and damages or deletes data.

Worms

A worm is a type of malware that spreads by itself through networks (like emails or shared drives) without needing to attach to a file. It can slow down systems and cause major network damage.

Trojans (Trojan Horses)

A trojan looks like a normal, useful program but secretly carries harmful code. Once installed, it can steal data or give hackers access to your system.

Rootkits

A rootkit hides deep inside your computer to avoid detection. It allows hackers to control your system without you knowing.

Spyware

Spyware secretly watches what you do on your computer or phone. It can track your internet use, steal passwords, or monitor conversations.

Adware

Adware shows unwanted ads on your device. It often comes bundled with free apps and can slow down your system or collect your browsing data.

Ransomware

Ransomware locks or encrypts your files and demands money (a ransom) to unlock them. It’s often spread through emails or fake downloads.

Keyloggers

A keylogger records everything you type — including passwords, credit card numbers, and messages — and sends it to hackers.

Botnets

A botnet is a group of infected computers controlled by a hacker. These “zombie” machines are used to send spam, spread viruses, or launch cyberattacks without the owner knowing..

Infection Source & Vector Analysis

We trace back the infection to its source:

  • Phishing emails

  • Infected USBs

  • Compromised websites or downloads

  • Network vulnerabilities

  • Social engineering attacks

This helps organizations understand how the breach happened and how to prevent it from recurring.

Behavioral Analysis (Dynamic Analysis)

Our experts execute malware samples in sandbox environments to observe:

  • File manipulations

  • Registry modifications

  • Network communication (C2 servers)

  • Persistence mechanisms

  • Payloads and exploit chains

This real-time behavioral analysis is critical to understand malware intent and functionality.

Code-Level Analysis (Static Analysis)

We decompile and reverse-engineer malware code using tools like IDA Pro, Ghidra, and X-Ways Forensics to:

  • Reveal embedded payloads

  • Detect obfuscation/encryption methods

  • Extract hardcoded IPs, domains, or credentials

  • Understand complex logic or evasion techniques

This deep-dive allows us to provide insights on the sophistication and threat level of the malware.

Memory & Volatile Data Analysis

Using Volatility and RAM dump tools, we extract valuable evidence from system memory:

  • Active malware processes

  • Suspicious DLLs

  • Network sessions

  • Encryption keys

  • Injected code or shellcode

Volatile memory forensics plays a critical role in catching fileless malware and advanced persistent threats (APTs).

Network Forensics

We analyze your network traffic using tools like Wireshark, tcpdump, and NetFlow:

  • Identify malware communication with external command-and-control (C2) servers

  • Detect data exfiltration attempts

  • Track lateral movement within the network

  • Isolate infected systems

This step is essential in containing the spread and safeguarding other endpoints.

Ransomware Forensic Services

If your organization has been hit by ransomware, we:

  • Identify the ransomware family

  • Retrieve and preserve encrypted files

  • Examine ransom notes and threat actor behavior

  • Check for available decryptors or recovery methods

  • Prepare evidence for law enforcement or insurance

We also advise on whether paying the ransom is legally or ethically viable (based on CERT-In & global cyber law standards).

Malware Removal & System Hardening

We don’t just detect malware — we help you recover.

  • Full system clean-up

  • Removal of persistent malware and rootkits

  • Reinstallation of compromised files

  • Patching known vulnerabilities

  • Configuration of antivirus and firewalls

  • Security awareness training

All investigations include:

  • Detailed timeline of the incident

  • Malware type and technical behavior

  • Entry point and method of propagation

  • Data affected or compromised

  • Legal chain-of-custody reports

  • Recommendations for future prevention
