Malware Detection

Malware detection involves identifying malware on a device or network using antivirus software, intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDS/IPS), and other cybersecurity tools. These tools use a variety of methods to detect malware, including signature-based, behavior-based, and heuristic-based techniques.

Continuous monitoring and regular system scans are critical for timely malware detection, which, in turn, is vital for maintaining the integrity and availability of IT systems.
