# v2.8.0 - latest

## 🎯 **FRIDAY UPDATE**

\
We’ve just raised the bar for dynamic malware analysis — again.

Threat.Zone now supports files up to **3 GB** for detonation, the highest limit among global sandboxes. Security teams in critical environments can finally analyze massive archives, installers, and virtual-disk images without size-related blind spots.

***

### 🚀 What’s New in This Release

#### **Expanded File Support**

* **Up to 3 GB file detonation** — no more blind spots for large installers, archives, or disk images.

#### **Deep Artifact Harvesting**

* Memory and file dumps from every run are now automatically processed and indexed for easier analysis.

#### **Malware Config Extractor**

* Extract campaign IDs, C2 servers, and other runtime configs directly from both samples and artifacts.

#### **YARA Rule Matcher & Generator**

* **Instant rule matching** against our internal rule-set.
* **One-click custom YARA rule creation** from any artifact with ease.

#### **IoC Extractor**

* Automatic extraction of domains, IPs, and hashes across samples, RAM, and dumped files.

#### **Recursive Archive Handling**

* Submit ZIP/RAR files, and each embedded file is detonated separately—no need for manual unpacking.

#### **Full REST API Coverage**

* Access indicators, YARA hits, artifacts, hybrid-analysis scores, and more via API—ready for SOAR, SIEM, or EDR pipelines.

#### **Varist Hybrid Analyzer Integration**

* Enhanced hybrid analysis, combining static and dynamic insights for deeper threat visibility.
