Malware sandboxes are integral to security applications like intrusion detection, forensics<\/a>, and threat intelligence, but using them correctly is challenging due to choices in implementations, monitoring techniques, and configurations.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Improper use can negatively impact applications through false positives, inconclusive analyses, and poor threat data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prior works survey dynamic analysis methods for building and improving sandboxes, evasion techniques, or experiment design but lack depth in understanding and configuring sandbox<\/a> deployments for new applications.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This complexity dominates non-expert users across disciplines. The paper bridges this gap by studying over 350 papers across 20 years to systematize 84 representative works on using sandboxes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It proposes a component framework simplifying deployments\/configurations for detection, observational studies, and anti-analysis applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guidelines are derived<\/a> by the following security researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology applying this framework to systematize prior works, helping users effectively incorporate sandboxes while avoiding pitfalls, unlike previous generalized surveys:-<\/p>\n\n\n\n
