Creation of Automatic Protection System for Executable Files under OS Linux

Abstract

The main goal of this work is the creation of the automatic protection system for executable files under OS Linux. Existing automatic protection systems for executable files and their functional properties are analyzed. Well known antidebug tricks and tricks against static disassembling have been researched. Also new antidebug tricks and tricks against static disassebling specific for OS Linux have been developed. Automatic protection system for executable ELF-format files under OS Linux based on researching has been created. Also created system and existed working analogues have been tested.
