Abstract: Malware analysis is essentially used for the identification of malware and its objectives. However, the present era has seen the process of malware analysis being used for enhancing security methods for different domains of technology. This study has attempted to analyze the current situation and status of malware analysis in web application security through some objectives. These objectives helps the authors to analyze the purpose, used methodology of malware analysis in web application security previously as well as authors select and find a prioritized technique of malware analysis through a hybrid multi criteria decision making procedure called fuzzy-Analytical Hierarchy Process. This fuzzy-AHP methodology helps the authors to find and recommend a most prioritized malware analysis techniques and type as well as suggest a ranking of various malware analysis techniques that used in web application security frequently for experts and developers use. Furthermore, second section of paper forecast the attack statistics and publication statistics of malwares and malware analysis in web application security respectively for understanding the sensitivity of topic and need of investigation. The proposed tactic intends to be an effective reckoner for web developers and facilitate in malware analysis for securing web applications. Additionally, the study also forecast the publication and attack scenario of malware and malware analysis for web application security that gives a complimentary overview of domain.
