SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETECTING AND MITIGATING CODE INJECTION ATTACKS

摘要

The present disclosure generally relates to computer security and malware protection. In particular, the present disclosure is generally directed towards systems and methods for detecting and mitigating a code injection attack. In one embodiment the systems and methods may detect a code injection attack by scanning identified sections of memory for non-operational machine instructions (“no-ops”), detecting a code injection attack based on the scan(s) and mitigating the code injection attack by taking one or more defensive actions.
