• Resumen

  • This research is dedicated to developing an information security tool with a sound interface. If there is a possibility to manage information security by ear, analysis of computer attacks could be effectively maintained by people with vision problems. For this purpose, a human-computer interface is required in which the signs of malicious code and computer attacks are encoded using sounds. This research highlights the features returned by the console tools for static analysis of executable files, as well as an audio coding method for auditory expression of textual and non-textual features is proposed. In order to provide visually impaired people with the opportunity to work in the cybersecurity field, we propose a method of analysing malware by ear.
