Methodology

The sample was executed in an isolated, instrumented Windows VM (host-only networking with emulated C2 responses) while process, file-system, registry and network activity were recorded. The verdict is derived by correlating observed runtime behaviour with static indicators. No sample binary was uploaded or redistributed.
