| It
is well known that many types of malware now detect that they
are being run in a virtual environment, or a debugger , and so
fail to run. This paper examines firstly the prevalence of such
malware, and secondly the possibility of using this fact against
the malware, by simulating a virtual environment (rather than
actual virtualization, reducing the concomitant performance
overhead) to prevent these classes of malware running, or to
block them by detecting their debugging or virtualization
avoidance activity. |
