Yara Pattern Scanner is a Windows-based tool that integrates with the file system context menu to provide pattern matching capabilities for malware detection and analysis. The tool allows users to right-click on folders or files to scan for various security-related patterns including cryptocurrency-related signatures, hacking team malware indicators, packer signatures, and malicious document patterns. It utilizes PEID signatures for binary analysis and pattern recognition. The scanner requires installation to specific directories (C:\yara\yara32.exe, C:\yara\icons, and C:\yara\mailware) and uses a registry file to enable the right-click context menu functionality. Users can extend the tool's capabilities by downloading additional Yara rules from the Yara-Rules repository and updating to newer binary releases. The tool provides a convenient interface for security analysts and researchers to quickly assess files and directories for potential threats without requiring command-line interaction.
