Remote malware scanning capable of static and dynamic file analysis

摘要

There are provided measures for enabling resource-efficient remote malware scanning capable of static and dynamic file analysis. Such measures could exemplarily comprise include, at a local entity, comparing file items of an electronic file to be scanned for malware with the file items of previously scanned electronic files, generating a recipe of the electronic file to be scanned, sending the generated recipe of the electronic file to be scanned for malware to a remote entity for enabling reconstructing the electronic file by assembling its file items on the basis of the obtained recipe and executing a dynamic malware analysis on a runtime behavior of the reconstructed electronic file.
