Claim 15:
16. A method for isolating and analyzing suspicious information in alternate formats using virtual containers, the method comprising:
receiving, by one or more processing components, an indication of the suspicious information;
identifying, by the one or more processing components, an analyst user for analyzing the suspicious information;
automatically setting-up, by the one or more processing components, a virtual container with virtual environment configurations based on pre-set virtual environment configurations set by the analyst user for the suspicious information, wherein the virtual container with virtual environment configurations is specific to the analyst user and the virtual environment configurations are subsequently changeable by the analyst user when analyzing the suspicious information;
allowing, by the one or more processing components, the analyst user to access to the virtual container in order to analyze the suspicious information;
identifying, by the one or more processing components, an original application for the suspicious information;
accessing, by the one or more processing components, the suspicious information in an analysis format that is different than an original format of the suspicious information, wherein the analysis format is accessed using a non-native application that is different than the original application for the suspicious information, and wherein the non-native application is a web browser and the analysis format is an html format;
allowing, by the one or more processing components, the analyst user to analyze the suspicious information in the analysis format within the virtual container, wherein the virtual container comprises applications, programs, libraries, data, and configuration files that the analyst sets to create a custom virtual environment configuration; and
implementing, by the one or more processing components, a mitigation action when the suspicious information is determined to include harmful information.
