Discuss: Entropy Analysis

This is the discussion thread for the lesson "Entropy Analysis" (Reverse Engineering and Malware Analysis, Unit 2). Ask questions, share real-world examples, and help classmates who are stuck. Conversation starters. Try explaining one of these in your own words: - Define Shannon entropy and describe its 0-to-8 scale - State the entropy threshold above which a .text section is almost certainly packed - Explain why high entropy in .rsrc is less suspicious than high entropy in .text
