Abstract

A defense method and device against intelligent bots using masqueraded virtual machine information are provided. The method includes performing global hooking on a virtual machine detection request transmitted by a process, determining, on the basis of pre-stored malicious process information, whether or not the process transmitting the virtual machine detection request corresponds to a malicious process, and when the process is found to correspond to the malicious process as a result of the determination, determining that the process is generated by the intelligent bot, and returning the masqueraded virtual machine information to the process.
