A submission cards includes the following data:

  • Analysis result

  • Sample name

  • Submission type

  • Severity score

  • Files and processes involved

  • Detonation environment

  • Hash value (MD5)

  • ATT&CK techniques

  • Submission status when a result is unavailable

Each submission card includes a link to a detailed HTML analysis report, if available. To open the report, click the View button.

The HTML report provides rich information organized on multiple levels, with descriptive text, graphics and screen captures that illustrate the sample’s behavior in the detonation environment.

This is what you can learn from a Sandbox Analyzer HTML report:

  1. General data about the analyzed sample, such as: malware name and classification, submission details (file name, type and size, hash, submission time and analysis duration).

  2. Behavioral analysis results, which include all the security events captured during detonation, organized into sections.
