Pafish
A testing tool that detects virtual machines and malware analysis environments using techniques observed in real malware.
What is Pafish?
Pafish is a testing tool that detects virtual machines and malware analysis environments using techniques commonly observed in real malware samples. It helps security analysts study evasion methods and test whether their analysis systems are properly implemented to detect such techniques. The project provides both source code and pre-built Windows executables for practical testing.
Security researchers, malware analysts, and cybersecurity professionals who need to test and improve their analysis environments against real-world evasion techniques.
Pafish offers a comprehensive collection of documented anti-analysis techniques in an open-source format, allowing analysts to transparently study malware evasion methods and validate their detection systems without relying on proprietary tools.
