VirusTotal Hash Analyzer

A Python script that gets score, name, extension and distributors of a file hashes list.

Requirements

You need to create your VirusTotal API_KEY (Dude, don't tremble, it's free).
Go to VirusTotal > Signin > Click on your account avatar > API key

• Free API_KEY limit: 500 requests per day and a rate of 4 requests per minute.
  If you need to make a lot of requests you can think about buying a paid plan (Account > API key > Request premium API key)
  
  

Install the following python libraries:

• pip install requests

Usage steps

• You have to create a simple .txt file that contains the list of file hashes (1 item for each line)
• Run virustotal_hash_analyzer.py
• Enter the path of the .txt file containing the hashes list
• Enter the minimum percentage of positive scans (DEFAULT = ALL)
• Enter your VirusTotal API_KEY (or write it into first line of your_key.txt file)
• Enter "yes" if is a Premium API key, else "false" (or write it into second line of your_key.txt file)
• The script will create (or write) the result to VirusTotal_result.txt file within the path from which the script was launched

Tips

• If you don't have a Premium API key, the script will delay the execution of the requests to VirusTotal, so as not to happen the foreseen limits
  
• While generating the results, the script is able to append data into an existing file by adding a Timestamp so that you can distinguish the various searches.
