Read this if
Readers who've worked through Les virus informatiques and want the next level on evasion, polymorphism, metamorphism.
Skip this if
Readers who haven't read the prior volume. Filiol leans on the formalism set there.
Key takeaways
- Offense/defense companion to the same school — one of the few French-language titles that goes to this level of detail.
- Particularly useful for understanding older classes of evasion techniques that resurface in modern implants.
- Together with Les virus informatiques, the most complete French-language academic foundation on the topic.
Notes
Pair with Practical Malware Analysis and The Art of Memory Forensics on the English side for modern analytical practice.
What to read before
What to read before Techniques virales avancées →Intermediate · 2012
Practical Malware Analysis
Still the gold standard textbook for static and dynamic malware analysis on Windows.
Advanced · 2024
Evasive Malware
Kyle Cucci on the anti-analysis arms race: sandbox detection, anti-debug, anti-VM, packing, and the analyst-side tooling and tradecraft that get past those layers.
Intermediate · 2011
The IDA Pro Book
Chris Eagle's deep manual on IDA Pro, the disassembler that defined a generation of reverse engineering. Useful even with Ghidra in the picture, since most malware-analysis literature still assumes IDA.
