IR-04(12) Malicious Code and Forensic Analysis

Control

Analyze malicious code and/or other residual artifacts remaining in the system after the incident.

Discussion

When conducted carefully in an isolated environment, analysis of malicious code and other residual artifacts of a security incident or breach can give the organization insight into adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures. It can also indicate the identity or some defining characteristics of the adversary. In addition, malicious code analysis can help the organization develop responses to future incidents.

Assessment Objective

  1. malicious code remaining in the system is analyzed after the incident;
  2. other residual artifacts remaining in the system (if any) are analyzed after the incident.

Assessment Method

Examine

Incident response policy procedures addressing incident handling procedures addressing code and forensic analysis procedures addressing incident response incident response plan system design documentation malicious code protection mechanisms, tools, and techniques results from malicious code analyses system security plan system audit records other relevant documents or records

Interview

System/network administrators organizational personnel with information security responsibilities organizational personnel installing, configuring, and/or maintaining the system organizational personnel with responsibility for malicious code protection organizational personnel responsible for incident response/management
