Title

Computers in Peril: A Brief Overview of Metamorphic Viruses

Abstract

Anti-virus scanners nowadays are generally based on signatures, which search for recognized patterns to determine whether a file is virus-infected. To avoid detection by signature-based scanners, hackers have used code obfuscation techniques to create extremely metamorphic system malware. Signature-based scanners may not be able to identify all of the viruses that exist. Since then, metamorphic malware has evolved from one generation to the next. Hackers employ a variety of methods to attack computers, including metamorphic malware. This article investigates the most prevalent kinds of computer malware and metamorphic computer viruses, as well as the many methods used by metamorphic malware to evade detection. Metamorphic code is code that when run outputs a logically equivalent version of its own code under some interpretation. This is similar to a quine, except that a quine's source code is exactly equivalent to its own output. Metamorphic code also usually outputs machine code and not its own source code.

Key Words

Compute Virus, Malware, Metamorphic Virus, Obfuscation, Polymorphic Virus.
