Describe the problem
One of the things that are lacking in VT, and obviously in MWDB, is that the search result table is very static and non-interactive. In fact, in order to search for needles in the haystack, we need to download all the files resulted from a search query, and use offline tools to filter them for the most interesting\relevant ones. Sometimes, using the python API is also an option to filter the results.
Describe the solution you'd like
As in many other (non-infosec) platforms, a table is something that can be extended and sorted.
Some ideas:
- Add new columns (e.g based on attributes, metadata)
- Sort by (compile-time, upload time, specific attributes)
- ...
Describe alternatives you've considered
Stick to static tables
From early MWDB versions I remember that there were some performance problems with ordering that doesn't follow the object upload time, but I think we can give it a try! :+1:
