Malware Protection
Week5Part4-IS
Revision Fall2013
Malware Protection
Malware protection use to be known simply as virus protection. We have learned that
viruses are one form of malicious software and that a broader term to describe the
multitude of threats and the protection mechanism is needed. This is why the term
Malware is broader categorization of the threat and also the protection. Malware is a
portmanteau of the terms Malicious Software. Different malware protection packages
can cover a range of threats including viruses, worms, Trojans, spyware, adware, rootkits
to name a few.
As malware has evolved so has malware protection. Malware protection packages (MPP)
have evolved to provide more comprehensive protection mechanisms; including
firewalls, Intrusion Detection/Protection Systems (IDS/IPS), remote and central
management of system clusters, heterogeneous system protection and management,
signature and heuristic scanning, sandboxing to name just a few features.
It is important to understand that no one Malware Protection Package will find all pieces
of malware. Each package has its strengths and weaknesses. It is a good idea to always
have some form of malware protection running on your system in real time. However,
should you become infected it is useful to have an alternative strategy making use of
other scanners that you can run manually.
Free or Paid for Scanners
There is an adage that “you get what you pay for”. Generally this is true, but over time I
have found that there are some excellent free malware scanners that for single user
systems do a nice job. Some major requirements I have for a malware scanner are: it is
easy to run; does not require a lot of user interaction, uses little system resources, does a
good job finding and removing threats and automatically updates its signature database.
The following is not an endorsement for paid versus free scanners. It represents my
experiences for what they are worth.
I use to have a paid for Norton subscription. I found that over time the system footprint
for Norton grew which meant Norton required more CPU and overall system resources
for its real-time scanning processes. I think Norton has got better based on recent
experience I have with Windows 8 however at the time I had several performance
problems related to Norton. This got me to switch to free AVG. I used AVG for a while
and had real good luck, until AVG’s advertising got obnoxious. I decided to remove
AVG and found that process very difficult. I finally succeeded and then moved to using
free Avast. I have been using Avast for several years having very good luck.
I then started testing various malware scanners on virtual machines. This got me familiar
with Microsoft Security Essentials. This is a free product offered by Microsoft that nicely
integrates with Windows Vista and Windows 7 systems. I like the simplicity of its

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

2. INTRODUCTION
Antivirus software is defined as a software used to
prevent, detect and remove all sorts of malware such
as computer viruses, hijackers, Trojan horses, etc.
3. HISTORY
Most of the viruses in early and mid 1980’s had
limited self-reproduction and spread initially by
storage devices such as floppy disks, before internet
connection was wide spread.
The first anti-virus introduced was Flushshot plus
and Anti4us in 1987.
John McAfee and Eugene Kaspersky found their own
antivirus software and later setup their companies in
1988.
4. IDENTIFICATION METHODS
There are various methods used by antivirus software
to identify malware:
Signature based tools: Most commonly used method
to identify viruses and other malware, antivirus
software compares the contents of a file to a
directory of virus signatures. The entire file is
searched both as whole as well as in pieces.
They are considered very basic and insufficient to
be counter today’s malware practices.
5.
6. IDENTIFICATION METHODS
Heuristics: It is the most required detection method
present in antivirus software.
Heuristic is a technique designed for solving a
problem more quickly when classic methods are too
slow or fail.
Some anti-viruses are difficult to detect as they
start of as a single infection and later change into
many variants. Heuristics is a method invented to
counter them.
7.
8. IDENTIFICATION METHODS
Root kit detection: Root kit is one of the dangerous
malware designed to gain administration-level
control over the computer without detection.
They change the way operating systems function
and tamper the antivirus software, leaving it
ineffective.
The latest antivirus software are being added with
root kit detection.
9.
10. IDENTIFICATION METHODS
Real-time protection: Background
guard, Auto-protect , Risky-website
testing, etc are some other antivirus
protection provided by antivirus
software.
11. POPULAR ANTIVIRUSES
Kaspersky Lab
McAfee Virus Scan
Avira Antivirus Software
Avast! Antivirus Software
AVG Antivirus and Internet Security
Norton Antivirus Software
Panda Antivirus Software
12.
13. PROS OF ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE
Protection from Malware.
Protection from Spyware and Identity Theft.
Protection from Spam.
Protects Important Documents.
Provides legal implication.
14. ISSUES OF ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE
Unexpected renewal costs: Some commercial
antivirus software end-user license agreements
include a clause that the subscription will be
automatically renewed, and the purchaser’s credit
card automatically billed, at the renewal time
without explicit approval.
For e.g., McAfee requires users to unsubscribe at
least 60 days before the expiration of the present
subscription.
15.
16. ISSUES OF ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE
Rouge security applications: Some apparent
antivirus programs are actually malware
masquerading as legitimate software, such as
WinFixer, MS Antivirus, and Mac Defender.
17. ISSUES OF ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE
Problems caused by false positives: A “false
positive” is when antivirus software identifies a non-
malicious file as virus. It can cause serious problems.
For e.g., if an antivirus program is configured to
immediately delete or quarantine infected files, a
false positive in an essential file can render an OS or
some applications useless.
18. ISSUES OF ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE
System and interoperability related issues:
Running multiple antivirus programs concurrently
can degrade performance and create conflicts.
However, using a concept called multi-
scanning, several companies (including G Data and
Microsoft) have created applications which can
multiple engines concurrently.
19.
20. ISSUES OF ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE
Effectiveness: The effectiveness of antivirus
software has decreased. Detection rates for threats
had dropped from 40-50% in 2006 to 20-30% in
2007.
The problem is magnified by changing intent of
the authors.
21. ISSUES OF ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE
New viruses: Anti-virus programs are not always
effective against new viruses.
Even those that use non-signature-based
methods that should detect viruses.
22. ISSUES OF ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE
Root-kits: Root-kits have full administrative access to
the computer and are invisible to users and are hidden
from running processes in the task manager.
Root-kits can modify the inner workings of an
operating system and tamper with anti-virus programs.
23. ISSUES OF ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE
Damaged files: Files which have been damaged by
computer viruses are normally damaged beyond
recovery.
Antivirus software removes the virus code from the file
during disinfection, but this does not always restore the
file in undamaged state.
24. ISSUES OF ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE
Firmware Issues:
Active antivirus
software can interfere
with a firmware update
process.
Any writable firmware
in the computer can be
infected with a
malicious code.
25. CONCLUSION
Anti-virus software is very useful to day-to-day users
to protect their storage devices and computers from
malware.
There is much antivirus software available in the
market with it’s own pros and cons.
The antivirus software has many issues that need to
be dealt with.
Other than antivirus software, there are many other
methods available to protect devices such as network
firewall, specialist tools, etc.
