Looking for a free place to analyze Malware? Cant Access ANY.RUN without a business email?

For those looking to analyze suspicious URL's and files but don't have access to resources a company does I have discovered a free option with ANY.RUN.

Caution:

- Malware and suspicious URL's can be dangerous to interact with. Care and caution should be exercised.

- When using a site like VirusTotal and ANY.RUN you should never upload any files with your personal information. The files you upload are accessible by anyone using these sites.

You have come across a suspicious email and a URL that doesn't sound legit. You run the URL on VirusTotal but it doesn't come back with any hits for being malicious but you still feel there is more to the story. Now you go looking for a sandbox that is free and you find ANY.RUN only to find out you cant access the site and create a free account without a corporate or business email address. I am sure there are others like me that have found this immensely frustrating. I have good news. There is a way to get free access without a business email address.

After some research I discovered an online post that references ANY.RUN's discord. In order to get on the ANY.RUN discord you can use the invitation: https://discord.gg/xqnHs4svxM. Once you have access to the discord you can go down to the support tab and Authorization section where you will be prompted to open a ticket for "Not business mail users" registration. Once you have made a successful request you will receive an email which will you allow you to set up a free account where you can now detonate you suspicious file in a sandboxed environment
