Malware detection
that outperforms VirusTotal.
Discover Recorded Future's AI-powered analysis and threat attribution—powered by dynamic sandboxing and automated YARA rules. Accelerate your malware detection and response times.
Don’t get locked into a single ecosystem.
Keeping malware analysis tools does not need to be a costly migration to a large vendor with up to 3x price increases, especially if there's no value-add in increased context, automation capabilities, and more.
Recorded Future's Malware Intelligence is derived from our unified and leading Threat Intelligence Module. Get more out of your malware detection with greater functionality, adaptability and integrations into your existing security stack than standalone alternatives.
