>Analyze if it's malware how exactly?

Based on the vibes, I guess.

Isn't this how people have always done it. Me and my boss when we are testing 3rd party binaries we open them in note pad first. Browse through the bits, ctrl f for "virus" or "Russia" get a general feel for how safe it is. I know some people right click and inspect the properties but that's not thorough enough for this digital age.
