Performing Dynamic Analysis with ANY.RUN
When to Use
- Interactive malware analysis is needed where the analyst must click dialogs, enter credentials, or navigate installer screens
- Rapid cloud-based sandbox analysis without maintaining local sandbox infrastructure
- Malware requires user interaction to proceed past anti-sandbox checks (document macros requiring "Enable Content")
- Sharing analysis results with team members via public or private task URLs
- Comparing behavior across different OS versions (Windows 7, 10, 11) available in ANY.RUN
Do not use for highly sensitive samples that cannot be uploaded to cloud services; use an on-premises sandbox like Cuckoo instead.
Prerequisites
- ANY.RUN account (free community tier or paid subscription at https://any.run)
- Modern web browser with WebSocket support for interactive session streaming
- Sample file ready for upload (max 100 MB for free tier, 256 MB for paid)
- Understanding of the sample type to select appropriate execution environment
- VPN or secure network for accessing ANY.RUN portal during analysis sessions
