200-201 · Question #559
Refer to the exhibit. A SOC engineer is analyzing this Cuckoo Sandbox report for a file that has been identified as suspicious by the endpoint security system. What is the state of the file?
The correct answer is C. The file was identified as PE32 executable with a high level of entropy to bypass AV via. The report identifies the sample as a PE32 Windows executable and highlights behavior and indicators consistent with evasion, including evidence of packed/encrypted or compressed content reflected by high entropy, which is commonly used to hinder antivirus and static analysis.
