Explanation

WildFire enforces a 100MB file size limit for Windows Portable Executable (PE) files submitted for analysis. PE files include .exe, .dll, .sys, and similar Windows executable formats. Files exceeding this limit cannot be submitted to WildFire for sandbox detonation and verdict generation. Different file types have different size limits in WildFire (e.g., PDFs, Office documents, and scripts have their own caps), but for Windows PE files specifically, the limit is 100MB.
