Abstract

A method for recognizing disguised malicious document, carried out by a computer system including a central processing unit (CPU), a memory, and a database storing rules for defining executable file and non-executable file, comprising steps of: receiving a static file through a network and an input/out interface; scanning the static file for a file header to determine if it is a non-executable file; analyzing file body of the non-executable file to locate components of an executable file and mark these positions; extracting components of the executable file from the non-executable file; concatenating the extracted components in accordance with a default rule or a heuristic rule to form a new file; and obtaining a new file that is executable, such that the received static file is a non-executable file having an embedded executable file, thus labeling the static file as a disguised malicious document.
