ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are systems, methods and computer program products for detection of malware with complex infection patterns. The system provides enhanced protection against malware by identifying potentially harmful software objects, monitoring execution of various processes and threads of potentially harmful objects, compiling contexts of events of execution of the monitored processes and threads, and merging contexts of related processes and threads. Based on the analysis of the individual and merged object contexts using malware behavior rules, the system allows detection of malicious objects that have simple and complex behavior patterns.
