Anti-Virus White Papers
Towards More Effective Virus Detectors
Overview Viruses (or malware) are a scourge, with potentially unlimited fraudulent uses. Smart viruses can hide, mutate and disable detection methods. Computers are an important part of everyday life to many people across the world. The Internet has revolutionized everyday life. The Internet has also brought an ugly side of computers: a plethora of malware. Home computers are most vulnerable to attacks by malicious programs and hackers. This is because many home users are less equipped to prevent or counter an infection. Even if the user possesses the required skills, a smart virus that appropriately hooks onto the system can hide its presence on the machine, and remain undetected.
