More difficulties of testing<br />

� Can the test environment be considered<br />

realistic?<br />

– Many malware detect VMware and other vm<br />

– Single tests may run for a few minutes, real users use<br />

their computer for hours<br />

� A better setup would require:<br />

– One physical machine per AV in parallel with identical<br />

hardware<br />

– “dummy” dummy” robots mimicking users<br />

– Knowing which malware are the most common<br />

– Gaining access to new samples near release time<br />
