A COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW ON MALWARE DETECTION TECHNIQUES

Abstract	Malware programs pose a significant threat as they are designed to disrupt computer systems and propagate through networks or Internet connections. Researchers are actively developing anti-malware systems aimed at effectively detecting and protecting against these threats. Two primary approaches have been proposed: signature-based detection, which relies on identifying known malware through specific patterns or signatures, and heuristic-based detection, which utilizes rules to identify potentially malicious behavior. However, signaturebased techniques are often ineffective against unknown malware variants and sophisticated evasion techniques such as code obfuscation, packing, polymorphism, and metamorphism. This survey paper provides an overview of current methodologies for detecting and analyzing malicious code, including static analysis, dynamic analysis, and hybrid approaches.
