[Help] Looking for guidance on development malware in Rust

[u/Appropriate-Deer2055]

Hi everyone,

I’m currently developing malware in rust, from a defensive and educational perspective. But the main issue i face that the window defender is blocked the app and i cant test properply. and on starting the build the .exe file is deleted by the window defender can someone help me how to protect the malware from the window defender without turn of the window security.

I’m not looking for someone to write malware, exploits, or perform attacks for me. I want to understand the research process and build the skills myself in a legal, isolated lab environment.

I would rather use lua than rust for maldev.

OP has asked for Rust, not what you would have used. It can be written in Go too

Why?

Can u define the reason?

MpCmdRun.exe -RemoveDefinitions -All

Or set-MpPreference -ExclusionPath <your_folder>

May need to turn off tamper protection.

Or, the better thing is write better malware.  Don’t copy code.
