What is Malcom?
Malcom is a malware communication analyzer that visualizes network traffic patterns and cross-references them with known malicious sources. It helps security analysts detect command and control servers, understand peer-to-peer malware networks, and identify DNS fast-flux infrastructures. The tool converts raw network data into actionable intelligence through interactive graphs and database lookups.
Security analysts, malware researchers, and incident responders who need to analyze network communications from potentially infected systems. It's particularly useful for those investigating advanced persistent threats (APTs) and botnet activities.
Malcom provides faster malware analysis through visual representations of network traffic, eliminating the need to manually parse packet captures. Its open-source nature allows customization with custom threat feeds, and the Docker deployment makes it easy to set up in isolated analysis environments.
