Dynamic analysis all the way! I bet the investigator is wearing a hazmat suit and everything, just to be safe. Gotta love that attention to detail.

You know, I heard that some malware these days can even detect when it's being analyzed. Better keep an eye out for that! But yeah, this is dynamic analysis for sure.

Static analysis? Nah, that's just looking at the file without running it. This is clearly dynamic analysis in action.

I'm not sure, but I think it could also be a hybrid analysis since it involves both static and dynamic elements.

Hmm, I'd say it's a hybrid approach. Combining static and dynamic analysis is the way to get a complete picture.

I agree with Aracelis. Uploading the file to VirusTotal for confirmation sounds like a static analysis.
