We originally came across ANY.RUN because we genuinely loved their interactive sandbox. From the start it just worked. The interface is intuitive, the detonation process is smooth, and the ability to actively interact with malware during analysis instead of just receiving static results makes a huge difference for real world investigations. Being able to click through processes, inspect network activity, and pivot in real time gives us far better context than traditional automated sandboxes.
