Abstract

The primary objective of this project is creation of compact system for support of malware analysis. This system will be able to analyze binary executable code, no matter which format or platform was the file created for. Compact, functionally equivalent form of representation will be the output of analysis process. Special computer language will designed for this purpose. Usage of such system will lead to expansion of the anti-virus industry to new markets like mobile phones, multimedia players, etc.
