Question

One of the armored virus techniques utilizes encryption to make virus code more difficult to detect, in addition to separating virus code into different pieces and inject these pieces throughout the infected program code.

What is the name for this technique?
a. Stealth
b. Appender
c. Swiss cheese
d. Split

Answer 1

C. Swiss Cheese

Step-by-step explanation:

Swiss cheese is a dynamic way of virus attack. It is very difficult to discover these attacks due to their mode of deployment.

In the Swiss cheese technique, virus codes insert themselves into the program code. After infection, any updated original code is moved to the virus code for execution. The host is not usually aware of these attacks, because the program will execute as expected.
