Hack your antivirus software to stamp out future vulnerabilities The
Antivirus Hacker's Handbook guides you through the process of reverse
engineering antivirus software. You explore how to detect and exploit
vulnerabilities that can be leveraged to improve future software design,
protect your network, and anticipate attacks that may sneak through
your antivirus' line of defense. You'll begin building your knowledge by
diving into the reverse engineering process, which details how to start
from a finished antivirus software program and work your way back
through its development using the functions and other key elements of
the software. Next, you leverage your new knowledge about software
development to evade, attack, and exploit antivirus software-all of
which can help you strengthen your network and protect your data. While
not all viruses are damaging, understanding how to better protect your
computer against them can help you maintain the integrity of your
network. * Discover how to reverse engineer your antivirus software *
Explore methods of antivirus software evasion * Consider different ways
to attack and exploit antivirus software * Understand the current state
of the antivirus software market, and get recommendations for users and
vendors who are leveraging this software The Antivirus Hacker's Handbook
is the essential reference for software reverse engineers, penetration
testers, security researchers, exploit writers, antivirus vendors, and
software engineers who want to understand how to leverage current
antivirus software to improve future applications.
