You will learn how to collect leads to research antivirus and explore the two common bypass approaches used by the authors. Once you've covered the essentials of antivirus research and bypassing, you'll get hands-on with bypassing antivirus software using obfuscation, encryption, packing, PowerShell, and more. Toward the end, the book covers security improvement recommendations, useful for both antivirus vendors as well as for developers to help strengthen the security and malware detection capabilities of antivirus software.
By the end of this security book, you'll have a better understanding of antivirus software and be able to confidently bypass antivirus software.
