summary: |
In this tongueincheek post we dive deep—actually *deeper* than usual—into the world of malware string analysis by counting individual characters. After pulling roughly 500 malicious samples from theZoo and dasMalwerk and comparing them against a hefty collection of benign binaries, we discovered that a handful of seemingly innocuous characters (v,j,;,,4,q,5,/) pop up more often in the bad guys code. By looking at raw counts and then normalising those counts by file size, we expose why naïve “characterfrequency” heuristics are both amusing and alarmingly unreliable. The piece is deliberately overthetop, aiming to entertain seasoned security folks while reminding everyone that good malware hunting requires more nuance than a simple character checklist.

## Introduction
I'm thinking of doing a series on bad malware analysis. Hopefully it'll be fun and at least a little informative.
I'm thinking of doing a series on bad malware analysis. Hopefully it'll be fun and at least a little informative.
Today's post consists of performing a string analysis on malware. Where most string analysis looks at the big picture, I thought I would take it a step further and look at individual characters. This approach is terrible, as you will soon see.

# Using AI as My Daily Driver at Work
## Why Im Jumping on the AI Bandwagon
In my new position, at my new company, as a Software EngineerII, I finally got the chance to treat AI like a coworker instead of a distant scifi concept. Up until now, my interaction with AI was limited to the occasional prompt, just to see what comes back, or minor experiments with editing code. So, you can imagine my excitement (and a dash of trepidation) when I started experimenting with a handful of tools that promised to make my daytoday less about copypasting and more about actually *thinking* about code.
