Abstract
A technique for detecting malware in an executable allows unpacking of a packed executable before determining whether the executable is malware. In systems with hardware assisted virtualization, hardware virtualization features may be used to iteratively unpack a packed executable in a controlled manner without needing knowledge of a packing technique. Once the executable is completely unpacked, malware detection techniques, such as signature scanning, may be employed to determine whether the executable contains malware. Hardware assisted virtualization may be used to facilitate the scanning of the run-time executable in memory.
