Creation of installation "profiles"?

Open jstrosch opened this issue 11 months ago • 5 comments

Details

Hey all! Have you considered creating a series of custom configurations that could align to "profiles"? For example, a profile that installs just the tools needed for PE file analysis or malicious documents? This could help reduce install time by helping folks avoid installing packages they don't need. I realize there is a way to customize the install, but these profiles can be passed via command line (XML) to help with anyone that wants/needs more automation (or doesn't want to have to manually tweak the install each time). I've created a few as examples at: https://github.com/jstrosch/FLARE-VM-configs/tree/main. Curious to get everyone's thoughts?

@emtuls recently shared a similar idea with me. I also discussed it with @MalwareMechanic some time ago. But it seems we never created an issue and we didn't have time to work on it. Thanks for documenting the idea @jstrosch!

@Ana06 Is this something that is being considered still?

@heap-s Definitely still being considered though it is unfortunately not on our high priority list at the moment.

We do have a plan to work on improving the GUI interface, primarily adding categories and drop down lists to the package list, and if time permits, we would try to squeeze that in as well. :)
