Good n informative knowledge about cyber crimes and malware analysis. Pretty much helped me to get through n understand the loop holes.

The book covers various architectures and formats, which gives the reader the opportunity to get familiar with many different and interesting topics. It is generally well written and presents information (like analysis, tips/tricks, tools) selected from professional experience. It can act like an "encyclopedia" which you can always go back and fetch something needed - like a specific instruction in a processor architecture, a tool, an analysis process. A point noted for improvement would be presenting more practical examples that can act as a "link" between the theory/guidelines and actual analysis. To sum up, it is a book that should have a position in your library.

The book was excellent on both breadth and depth on malware analysis topics. It also provided the inspiring thinking beside techniques. The only regret was that the book did not provide many practical examples so a bit hard for beginner to follow. But the explanation on the complex concept was neat and clear, so it helped greatly on learning for all levels of the readers.

I really wanted to like this book. There are some good nifty tidbits from this book, but those are few and far between. My main problem is that the book has entirely too many typos and nonsensical sentences. It’s hard to trust technical procedures and analysis in this book, because it is so poorly written. “Practical Malware Analysis” is still the go-to book for learning malware analysis. I’d recommend getting three (more) editors to review this book for errors. Additionally, I think $49 is too much to charge for this book.

Although I have not yet finished reading the book, I have found it to be a good balance between intermediate and advanced ideas.I would not recommend this for people with no assembly language understanding. The introductory sections covering AL are better considered as refreshers rather than primers. As someone who learned assembly on 6502 in the 80's and last touched AL on 8080's in the 90's, it was a good refresher and explained various processor architectures and approaches in just enough detail. Should a reader need more information on a specific platform, there are more than enough other reference works to provide that.Some readers and commenters have pointed out that the book has a number of typographic and grammatical errors. The version I have has some errors, but not so many as to affect the readability, and I've learned from tutors at institutes whose spelling and grammar are worse than the minimal errors I've found so far.To those inclined to complain about the errors, I would offer this advice - approach the authors with details of the errors you've found, they will welcome your input. Be part of the solution, not part of the problem.Buy this book, help support the authors, learn some good concepts and ideas.

This book is excellent. Clear and concise and the topics are given in an order that really is great for following along with.
