Abstract
According to one embodiment, a virtualized malware detection system is integrated with a virtual machine host including a plurality of virtual machines and a security virtual machine. Logic within the virtual machines are configured to perform a dynamic analysis of an object and monitor for the occurrence of a triggering event. Upon detection of a triggering event within a virtual machine, the logic within the virtual machine provides the security virtual machine with information associated with the triggering event for further analysis. Based on the further analysis, the object may then be classified as “non-malicious,” or “malicious.”
