arXiv:2609.04820v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Sandbox execution and memory forensics are among the most constrained resources in malware triage. Static analysis can scale to millions of files, whereas dynamic and memory analysis require minutes of analyst controlled infrastructure for each sample. Despite this difference, multimodal ransomware detectors often apply every modality to every sample, causing analysis cost and time to verdict to increase linearly with sample volume even when static evidence is already sufficient for a decision. We present a cost aware Hierarchical Multi
