ABSTRACT:
A method includes determining if an attempt to recreate a requested resource is made, and, if so, if the requested resource is a suspicious resource. If the requested resource is a suspicious resource, identification of an originating process is made. A determination is made if the originating process is a non-trusted originating process or a trusted originating process. If the originating process is the non-trusted originating process, a protective action is taken. In this manner, self-repairing and persistent malicious code is identified and removed with minimal adverse impact on system functionality.
