Understanding how Polymorphic and Metamorphic malware evades detection to infect systems

Polymorphic and metamorphic malware continuously mutate to dodge detection and prolong their presence in systems, posing a significant threat. Polymorphic malware alters its code using dynamic encryption keys while metamorphic malware updates its code in each iteration. Such malware can be countered through strong account protection policies, security solutions, up-to-date software, and employee education on cyber security. It’s essential for organizations to understand and institute defenses against these malwares.
