Abstract
Malware, short for malicious software is a program
code that is hostile and often used to corrupt or misuse a
system. Introducing malware into a computer network
environment has different effects depending on the design
intent of the malware and the network layout. Malware
detection and prevention systems are bypassed by malicious
files in computer systems as malware become more complex
and large in numbers. This paper presents an overview of the
world of malware with the intent of providing the underlying
information for the intended study into developing malware
detection approaches.
