File Upload Terms and Conditions

By uploading a file to our platform, you are agreeing to the following terms and conditions. Our platform is designed to perform static analysis on submitted files to identify potential malware evasion techniques. Your file may be retained, analyzed, and potentially shared with third parties under specific conditions outlined below.

1. Rules

To maintain a safe and respectful environment for all users, we have specific rules regarding the Upload Sample feature. Please review the following guidelines carefully:

• Respectful Naming Conventions: Avoid using inappropriate, offensive, or explicit words when naming your files. The platform strictly prohibits names that contain profane, obscene, or otherwise disrespectful language.
• No Unauthorized Exploits: Attempting to manipulate, interfere with, or exploit the scanning system without explicit written consent is forbidden. Unauthorized access or misuse of our scanning technology will not be tolerated.
• Prohibit Flooding and Garbage Uploads: Refrain from uploading intentionally misleading, irrelevant, or garbage samples (e.g., blank files, random data, meaningless content). Such abuse disrupts the system and hinders its effectiveness for other users.

We appreciate your cooperation in keeping our platform professional, efficient, and secure for everyone.

2. File Analysis and Processing

Upon uploading a file to our platform, the file will undergo static analysis. This analysis aims to detect and categorize potential malware evasion techniques that may be present within the submitted sample. Our analysis may include, but is not limited to:

• Code inspection and disassembly
• Metadata analysis
• Pattern and signature matching
• Behavioral and heuristic analysis

By uploading a file, you acknowledge and accept that this analysis may result in the modification of the original file structure (for analysis purposes only) and agree that these changes are inherent to the analysis process.

3. File Retention and Storage

All uploaded files are retained on our platform indefinitely for security and research purposes. Retaining these files enables us to:

• Improve our detection capabilities for malware evasion techniques
• Conduct ongoing research and development to enhance security analysis
• Provide an archive for future analysis or reference in the event of related security incidents

By uploading a file, you consent to our indefinite retention of the file within our secure storage systems. We take precautions to protect stored files, but we cannot guarantee absolute security against all potential threats.

4. Sharing and Disclosure

In certain cases, files and analysis results may be shared with third-party security partners, researchers:

• To assist in ongoing research or investigations regarding malware techniques
• To enhance the effectiveness of threat detection across the security industry
• To prevent or respond to potential security threats that may impact users or organizations

We will take reasonable steps to anonymize or aggregate data when possible, but full anonymization cannot be guaranteed. By uploading a file, you agree that it may be shared under the conditions specified above.

5. User Responsibilities and Acknowledgments

As a user of this platform, you acknowledge and accept the following responsibilities and implications:

• You confirm that you have the authority and rights to upload the file(s) to our platform.
• You understand that the uploaded file(s) may be analyzed, retained, and potentially shared with authorized third parties as described in this document.
• You accept that our platform will retain files indefinitely, with the purpose of advancing malware detection research and threat prevention efforts.
• You agree that our platform is not responsible for any damages or liabilities arising from the analysis or handling of uploaded files, including but not limited to potential alterations in file behavior or unintended results.
