The skill systematically deobfuscates multi‑layer PowerShell malware, using AST analysis, dynamic tracing, and specialized tools to expose hidden payloads and command‑and‑control infrastructure. Incident responders and malware analysts recover the underlying commands, dropped payloads, and C2 endpoints when scripts employ encoding, string manipulation, or invocation tricks, enabling thorough threat investigation and rapid containment.
