2.exePE analysis report - Nothing conclusive
Run integrity
sample ranThe guest staged the sample and launched it, so what follows describes this file rather than an empty desktop.
Nothing conclusive
6/100
29 points short of the suspicious line at 35.
Why this verdict
- Weak exploit-mitigation posture (no ASLR/DEP/CFG) and unsigned
Model reading
Evidence ledger above, row by row. Published verdict rests on this column and on nothing to its right.
Reads this report's derived findings, never the sample itself.
A model reading exists for this scan and is shown to the submitter and to staff only. It is a second opinion about evidence the score already priced, it is worth no points, and on a public page it would stand beside the verdict with no grounding a stranger could check.

What the tests returned
8 testsEach test this run performed and what it returned. A test that was not performed says so rather than reading as a negative result.
| Test | Result |
|---|---|
| Persistence mechanisms | none established at runtime |
| Cross-process injection | none observed |
| Payloads written to disk | none observed |
| Network connections | not tested - internet was disabled |
| Behavioural rule matches (Sigma) | none observed |
| Known-malicious hash (reputation sources) | no source reported this file |
| Local anti-virus engine | reported no detection |
| Anti-analysis / evasion checks | not measured on this run - no in-process API monitor reported in, so the runtime anti-debug and anti-VM calls were never watched |
Absence of an observation is not proof of absence - see Coverage for what this run could and could not test.
Arguing against malice
- The local anti-virus engine reported no detection.
- No reputation source reported this file as malicious.
How much weight this carries
Observed. Observed at runtime and attributed to this sample by one layer. The one fact that decided it: the sample ran for 129s and no malicious behaviour was observed.
Structure
What the file is made of: headers, imports, how it was built and whether it was signed.
Sections & resources
How the file is laid out in memory, and what is embedded in it: section roles, access rights, entropy and every resource entry.
Signatures & packing
What matched and what is hidden: signature rules, detected capabilities, family attribution, packer detection, unpacked payloads and recovered configuration.
Strings
The readable content: embedded secrets, flagged strings and everything extraction recovered.
Code
What the sample would execute: the emulated API call sequence, and the disassembled entry point.
Antivirus engine
no signature matchedNothing in the signature set below matched this file. That is one engine's negative answer against one signature set on one day, and it is not a verdict. A signature engine only recognises what has already been named and published, so a file nobody has named yet scans exactly like a file that is harmless. What this file does when it runs is the stronger evidence; read the behaviour sections for that.
This run did not record which signature set answered, so the result above cannot be tied to a named set or reproduced against one. Recording the set began part way through this platform's history, and this scan predates it.
Local ML assessment
no model scoreThis scan ran before the local classifier was installed on this host, so no model score was produced for it. Submitting the same file again produces one.
Structural rules of thumb, not a model. 1 cheap static signal fired, for 10 of 100 on a rule-of-thumb scale that is deliberately left out of the verdict score: the packing, entropy and signing cards on this report already price the same facts, and counting them a second time under a machine-learning heading would charge one piece of evidence twice.
- unsigned executable
No packer indicator fired: the entry point, the section layout and the entropy all read as an ordinary build.
Security mitigations
weak postureAtypical for a benign modern build - common in packed/repacked malware.

ran 130s1 process(es) observed
No WMI attributed to the sample. The WMI-Activity trace was running and recorded 1066 operations on the machine during the run; none of them came from the sample's process tree.
Command lines, unwrapped
1 read1 captured text was read and unwrapped locally. No address was recovered from any of them, and none of them was hiding its own contents behind an encoding or a format string. This is a result, not a gap.
No route out of the sandbox
isolated runThis detonation ran on the isolated network, with no route out. Everything below is what the sample attempted: the names it asked the resolver for and the connections it opened. No answer came back and no session could complete, so nothing here means the sample reached the internet. An internet-connected detonation is a paid-plan feature.
Encrypted traffic
no session negotiatedNo encrypted session was negotiated during this run. The capture was read for session handshakes and held none, so this is a measurement and not a gap: there is no protected channel whose contents this report is failing to show. This detonation also had no route out, so a program that would have opened one could not have completed it.
No network activity - the run was isolated
This detonation was given no internet connection, so a sample that wanted to reach out could not. An empty section here says nothing about whether it tried.

Analyst narrative
The analysis of the sample indicates that it was successfully executed in the sandbox environment. However, the observed behavior is limited, and the evidence does not provide a comprehensive view of the kill chain stages. **Initial Access:** There is no clear evidence of how the sample would gain initial access, as the analysis does not include any network activity or indicators of prior infection. **Execution:** The sample was executed, as indicated by the presence of a process observed during the analysis. However, the behavior summary does not detail any specific actions taken by the sample. **Persistence:** There were no persistence mechanisms observed. The registry operations noted involved creating keys under the `WOW6432Node`, but without further context, it is unclear if these actions were intended for persistence or other purposes. **Defense Evasion:** There are no specific defense evasion techniques noted in the analysis. The sample was unsigned, which could be a potential indicator of evasion, but this is not definitive. **Command and Control (C2):** There is no evidence of command and control communication. The network and DNS sections indicate no activity, suggesting that the sample did not attempt to connect to any external servers. **Impact:** The impact of the sample remains unclear due to the lack of observable malicious behavior or effects on the system. **Verdict Rationale:** The analysis reveals that the sample executed but exhibited minimal observable behavior. The lack of significant actions or indicators of compromise leads to a conclusion that further investigation would be necessary to determine the sample's true nature and intent. The overall risk is assessed as moderate due to the unsigned executable status and registry modifications, but definitive conclusions about malicious intent cannot be drawn from the current evidence.

}Extracted files
What came out of the sample: unpacked payloads, carved objects and captured memory. Each one is stored by content hash, so the same object extracted twice is the same row.
No extracted files
Nothing was unpacked or carved out of this sample. Packed samples, documents with embedded objects and installers are the ones that usually produce artifacts here.
Export & download
/s/2490Structured exports for your SIEM/TIP - ATT&CK Navigator layer, STIX 2.1 bundle, MISP event and a defanged IOC list - are free on every report. The packet capture follows this scan's plan, because a capture is the rawest network output this platform produces.
AI analysis report
An enterprise report with an AI-written executive summary, threat assessment, kill chain, and recommendations, plus the derived evidence (verdict, MITRE ATT&CK, network, file modifications, dropped files, IOCs) and screenshots. The AI narrative is built from derived analysis data only, so the raw sample never leaves the host (no-upload and AI-boundary preserved).
