-# Coin miners
-
-Cybercriminals are always looking for new ways to make money. With the rise of digital currencies, also known as cryptocurrencies, criminals see a unique opportunity to infiltrate an organization and secretly mine for coins by reconfiguring malware.
-
-## How coin miners work
-
-Many infections start with:
-
-- Email messages with attachments that try to install malware.
-
-- Websites hosting exploit kits that attempt to use vulnerabilities in web browsers and other software to install coin miners.
-
-- Websites taking advantage of computer processing power by running scripts while users browse the website.
-
-Mining is the process of running complex mathematical calculations necessary to maintain the blockchain ledger. This process generates coins but requires significant computing resources.
-
-Coin miners aren't inherently malicious. Some individuals and organizations invest in hardware and electric power for legitimate coin mining operations. However, others look for alternative sources of computing power and try to find their way into corporate networks. These coin miners aren't wanted in enterprise environments because they eat up precious computing resources.
-
-Cybercriminals see an opportunity to make money by running malware campaigns that distribute, install, and run trojanized miners at the expense of other people’s computing resources.
-
-### Examples
-
-DDE exploits, which have been known to distribute ransomware, are now delivering miners.
-
-For example, a sample of the malware detected as Trojan:Win32/Coinminer (SHA-256: 7213cbbb1a634d780f9bb861418eb262f58954e6e5dca09ca50c1e1324451293) is installed by Exploit:O97M/DDEDownloader.PA, a Word document that contains the DDE exploit.
-
-The exploit launches a cmdlet that executes a malicious PowerShell script (Trojan:PowerShell/Maponeir.A). It downloads the trojanized miner, a modified version of the miner XMRig, which then mines Monero cryptocurrency.
-
-## How to protect against coin miners
-
-**Enable potentially unwanted applications (PUA) detection**. Some coin mining tools aren't considered malware but are detected as PUA. Many applications detected as PUA can negatively impact machine performance and employee productivity. In enterprise environments, you can stop adware, torrent downloaders, and coin mining by enabling PUA detection.
-
-Since coin miners are becoming a popular payload in many different kinds of attacks, see general tips on how to [prevent malware infection](prevent-malware-infection.md).
-
-For more information on coin miners, see the blog post [Invisible resource thieves: The increasing threat of cryptocurrency miners](https://cloudblogs.microsoft.com/microsoftsecure/2018/03/13/invisible-resource-thieves-the-increasing-threat-of-cryptocurrency-miners/).

-# Coordinated Malware Eradication
-
-
-
-Coordinated Malware Eradication (CME) aims to bring organizations in cybersecurity and in other industries together to change the game against malware. While the cybersecurity industry today is effective at disrupting malware families through individual efforts, those disruptions rarely lead to eradication since malware authors quickly adapt their tactics to survive.
-
-CME calls for organizations to pool their tools, information, and actions to drive coordinated campaigns against malware. The goal is to drive efficient and long-lasting results to better protect our communities, customers, and businesses.
-
-## Combining our tools, information, and actions
-
-Diversity of participation across industries and disciplines, extending beyond cybersecurity, makes eradication campaigns even stronger across the malware lifecycle. Security vendors, computer emergency response/readiness teams (CERTs), and Internet service providers (ISPs) can contribute with malware telemetry. Online businesses can identify fraudulent behavior and law enforcement agencies can drive legal action.
-
-Microsoft is planning to contribute telemetry and analysis data to these campaigns. It will also provide cloud-based scalable storage and computing horsepower with the necessary big data analysis tools built-in.
-
-## Coordinated campaigns for lasting results
-
-Organizations participating in the CME effort work together to help eradicate selected malware families by contributing their own telemetry data, expertise, tools, and other resources. These organizations operate under a campaign umbrella with clearly defined end goals and metrics. Any organization or member can start a campaign and invite others to join it. The members can then accept or decline the invitations they receive.
-
-## Join the effort
-
-Any organization that is involved in cybersecurity and antimalware or interested in fighting cybercrime can participate in CME campaigns by enrolling in the [Virus Information Alliance (VIA) program](virus-information-alliance-criteria.md). Everyone agrees to use the available information and tools for their intended purpose (that is, the eradication of malware).
-
-If your organization meets these criteria and is interested in joining, [apply for membership now](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi/alliances/apply-alliance-membership). For any questions, [contact us for more information](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi/alliances/collaboration-inquiry).

-# How Microsoft identifies malware and potentially unwanted applications
-
-Microsoft aims to provide a delightful and productive Windows experience by working to ensure you're safe and in control of your devices. Microsoft helps protect you from potential threats by identifying and analyzing software and online content. When you download, install, and run software, we check the reputation of downloaded programs and ensure you're protected against known threats. You are also warned about software that is unknown to us.
-
-You can assist Microsoft by [submitting unknown or suspicious software for analysis](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi/filesubmission/). This will help ensure that unknown or suspicious software is scanned by our system to start establishing reputation. [Learn more about submitting files for analysis](submission-guide.md)
-
-The next sections provide an overview of the classifications we use for applications and the types of behaviors that lead to that classification.
-
->[!NOTE]
-> New forms of malware and potentially unwanted applications are being developed and distributed rapidly. The following list may not be comprehensive, and Microsoft reserves the right to adjust, expand, and update these without prior notice or announcement.
-
-## Unknown – Unrecognized software
-
-No antivirus or protection technology is perfect. It takes time to identify and block malicious sites and applications, or trust newly released programs and certificates. With almost 2 billion websites on the internet and software continuously updated and released, it's impossible to have information about every single site and program.
-
-Think of Unknown/Uncommonly downloaded warnings as an early warning system for potentially undetected malware. There's generally a delay from the time new malware is released until it's identified. Not all uncommon programs are malicious, but the risk in the unknown category is much higher for the typical user. Warnings for unknown software aren't blocks. Users can choose to download and run the application normally if they wish to.
-
-Once enough data is gathered, Microsoft's security solutions can make a determination. Either no threats are found, or an application or software is categorized as malware or potentially unwanted software.
-
-## Malware
-
-Malware is the overarching name for applications and other code, like software, that Microsoft classifies more granularly as *malicious software* or *unwanted software*.
-
-### Malicious software
-
-Malicious software is an application or code that compromises user security. Malicious software may steal your personal information, lock your device until you pay a ransom, use your device to send spam, or download other malicious software. In general, malicious software wants to trick, cheat, or defrauds users, placing them in vulnerable states.
-
-Microsoft classifies most malicious software into one of the following categories:
-
-* **Backdoor:** A type of malware that gives malicious hackers remote access to and control of your device.
-
-* **Command and Control:** A type of malware that infects your device and establishes communication with the hackers’ command-and-control server to receive instructions. Once communication is established, hackers can send commands that can steal data, shut down and reboot the device, and disrupt web services.
-
-* **Downloader:** A type of malware that downloads other malware onto your device. It must connect to the internet to download files.
-
-* **Dropper:** A type of malware that installs other malware files onto your device. Unlike a downloader, a dropper doesn't have to connect to the internet to drop malicious files. The dropped files are typically embedded in the dropper itself.
-
-* **Exploit:** A piece of code that uses software vulnerabilities to gain access to your device and perform other tasks, such as installing malware. [See more information about exploits](exploits-malware.md).
-
-* **Hacktool:** A type of tool that can be used to gain unauthorized access to your device.
-
-* **Macro virus:** A type of malware that spreads through infected documents, such as Microsoft Word or Excel documents. The virus is run when you open an infected document.
-
-* **Obfuscator:** A type of malware that hides its code and purpose, making it more difficult for security software to detect or remove.
-
-* **Password stealer:** A type of malware that gathers your personal information, such as usernames and passwords. It often works along with a keylogger, which collects and sends information about the keys you press and websites you visit.
-
-* **Ransomware:** A type of malware that encrypts your files or makes other modifications that can prevent you from using your device. It then displays a ransom note that states you must pay money or perform other actions before you can use your device again. [See more information about ransomware](/security/compass/human-operated-ransomware).
-
-* **Rogue security software:** Malware that pretends to be security software but doesn't provide any protection. This type of malware usually displays alerts about nonexistent threats on your device. It also tries to convince you to pay for its services.
-
-* **Trojan:** A type of malware that attempts to appear harmless. Unlike a virus or a worm, a trojan doesn't spread by itself. Instead, it tries to look legitimate to tricks users into downloading and installing it. Once installed, trojans perform various malicious activities such as stealing personal information, downloading other malware, or giving attackers access to your device.
-
-* **Trojan clicker:** A type of trojan that automatically clicks buttons or similar controls on websites or applications. Attackers can use this trojan to click on online advertisements. These clicks can skew online polls or other tracking systems and can even install applications on your device.

-* **Worm:** A type of malware that spreads to other devices. Worms can spread through email, instant messaging, file sharing platforms, social networks, network shares, and removable drives. Sophisticated worms take advantage of software vulnerabilities to propagate.
-
-### Unwanted software
-
-Microsoft believes that you should have control over your Windows experience. Software running on Windows should keep you in control of your device through informed choices and accessible controls. Microsoft identifies software behaviors that ensure you stay in control. We classify software that doesn't fully demonstrate these behaviors as "unwanted software".
-
-#### Lack of choice
-
-You must be notified about what is happening on your device, including what software does and whether it's active.
-
-Software that exhibits lack of choice might:
-
-* Fail to provide prominent notice about the behavior of the software and its purpose and intent.
-
-* Fail to clearly indicate when the software is active. It might also attempt to hide or disguise its presence.
-
-* Install, reinstall, or remove software without your permission, interaction, or consent.
-
-* Install other software without a clear indication of its relationship to the primary software.
-
-* Circumvent user consent dialogs from the browser or operating system.
-
-* Falsely claim to be software from Microsoft.
-
-Software must not mislead or coerce you into making decisions about your device. It is considered behavior that limits your choices. In addition to the previous list, software that exhibits lack of choice might:
-
-* Display exaggerated claims about your device's health.
-
-* Make misleading or inaccurate claims about files, registry entries, or other items on your device.
-
-* Display claims in an alarming manner about your device's health and require payment or certain actions in exchange for fixing the purported issues.
-
-Software that stores or transmits your activities or data must:
-
-* Give you notice and get consent to do so. Software shouldn't include an option that configures it to hide activities associated with storing or transmitting your data.
-
-#### Lack of control
-
-You must be able to control software on your device. You must be able to start, stop, or otherwise revoke authorization to software.
-
-Software that exhibits lack of control might:
-
-* Prevent or limit you from viewing or modifying browser features or settings.
-
-* Open browser windows without authorization.
-
-* Redirect web traffic without giving notice and getting consent.
-
-* Modify or manipulate webpage content without your consent.
-
-Software that changes your browsing experience must only use the browser's supported extensibility model for installation, execution, disabling, or removal. Browsers that don't provide supported extensibility models are considered non-extensible and shouldn't be modified.
-
-#### Installation and removal
-
-You must be able to start, stop, or otherwise revoke authorization given to software. Software should obtain your consent before installing, and it must provide a clear and straightforward way for you to install, uninstall, or disable it.
-
-Software that delivers *poor installation experience* might bundle or download other "unwanted software" as classified by Microsoft.
-
-Software that delivers *poor removal experience* might:
-
-* Present confusing or misleading prompts or pop-ups when you try to uninstall it.
-
-* Fail to use standard install/uninstall features, such as Add/Remove Programs.
-
-#### Advertising and advertisements
-
-Software that promotes a product or service outside of the software itself can interfere with your computing experience. You should have clear choice and control when installing software that presents advertisements.
-
-The advertisements that are presented by software must:
-
-* Include an obvious way for users to close the advertisement. The act of closing the advertisement must not open another advertisement.
-
-* Include the name of the software that presented the advertisement.
-
-The software that presents these advertisements must:
-
-* Provide a standard uninstall method for the software using the same name as shown in the advertisement it presents.
-
-Advertisements shown to you must:
-
-* Be distinguishable from website content.
-
-* Not mislead, deceive, or confuse.
-
-* Not contain malicious code.
-
-* Not invoke a file download.
-
-#### Consumer opinion
-
-Microsoft maintains a worldwide network of analysts and intelligence systems where you can [submit software for analysis](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi/filesubmission). Your participation helps Microsoft identify new malware quickly. After analysis, Microsoft creates Security intelligence for software that meets the described criteria. This Security intelligence identifies the software as malware and are available to all users through Microsoft Defender Antivirus and other Microsoft antimalware solutions.
-
-## Potentially unwanted application (PUA)
-
-Our PUA protection aims to safeguard user productivity and ensure enjoyable Windows experiences. This protection helps deliver more productive, performant, and delightful Windows experiences. For instruction on how to enable PUA protection in Chromium-based Microsoft Edge and Microsoft Defender Antivirus, see [Detect and block potentially unwanted applications](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/detect-block-potentially-unwanted-apps-microsoft-defender-antivirus).
-
-*PUAs are not considered malware.*
-
-Microsoft uses specific categories and the category definitions to classify software as a PUA.
-
-* **Advertising software:** Software that displays advertisements or promotions, or prompts you to complete surveys for other products or services in software other than itself. This includes software that inserts advertisements to webpages.
-
-* **Torrent software (Enterprise only):** Software that is used to create or download torrents or other files specifically used with peer-to-peer file-sharing technologies.
-
-* **Cryptomining software (Enterprise only):** Software that uses your device resources to mine cryptocurrencies.
-
-* **Bundling software:** Software that offers to install other software that is not developed by the same entity or not required for the software to run. Also, software that offers to install other software that qualifies as PUA based on the criteria outlined in this document.
-
-* **Marketing software:** Software that monitors and transmits the activities of users to applications or services other than itself for marketing research.
-
-* **Evasion software:** Software that actively tries to evade detection by security products, including software that behaves differently in the presence of security products.
-
-* **Poor industry reputation:** Software that trusted security providers detect with their security products. The security industry is dedicated to protecting customers and improving their experiences. Microsoft and other organizations in the security industry continuously exchange knowledge about files we have analyzed to provide users with the best possible protection.

-# Exploits and exploit kits
-
-Exploits take advantage of vulnerabilities in software. A vulnerability is like a hole in your software that malware can use to get onto your device. Malware exploits these vulnerabilities to bypass your computer's security safeguards to infect your device.
-
-## How exploits and exploit kits work
-
-Exploits are often the first part of a larger attack. Hackers scan for outdated systems that contain critical vulnerabilities, which they then exploit by deploying targeted malware. Exploits often include shellcode, which is a small malware payload used to download additional malware from attacker-controlled networks. Shellcode allows hackers to infect devices and infiltrate organizations.
-
-Exploit kits are more comprehensive tools that contain a collection of exploits. These kits scan devices for different kinds of software vulnerabilities and, if any are detected, deploy additional malware to further infect a device. Kits can use exploits targeting a variety of software, including Adobe Flash Player, Adobe Reader, Internet Explorer, Oracle Java, and Sun Java.
-
-The most common method used by attackers to distribute exploits and exploit kits is through webpages, but exploits can also arrive in emails. Some websites unknowingly and unwillingly host malicious code and exploits in their ads.
-
-The infographic below shows how an exploit kit might attempt to exploit a device after you visit a compromised webpage.
-
-
-
-*Figure 1. Example of how to exploit kits work*
-
-Several notable threats, including Wannacry, exploit the Server Message Block (SMB) vulnerability CVE-2017-0144 to launch malware.
-
-Examples of exploit kits:
-
-- Angler / [Axpergle](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/threats/malware-encyclopedia-description?name=JS/Axpergle)
-
-- [Neutrino](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/threats/malware-encyclopedia-description?name=JS/NeutrinoEK)
-
-- [Nuclear](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/threats/malware-encyclopedia-description?name=JS/Neclu)
-
-To learn more about exploits, read this blog post on [taking apart a double zero-day sample discovered in joint hunt with ESET.](https://cloudblogs.microsoft.com/microsoftsecure/2018/07/02/taking-apart-a-double-zero-day-sample-discovered-in-joint-hunt-with-eset/)
-
-## How we name exploits
-
-We categorize exploits in our Malware encyclopedia by the "platform" they target. For example, Exploit:Java/CVE-2013-1489.A is an exploit that targets a vulnerability in Java.
-
-A project called "Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE)" is used by many security software vendors. The project gives each vulnerability a unique number, for example, CVE-2016-0778.
-The portion "2016" refers to the year the vulnerability was discovered. The "0778" is a unique ID for this specific vulnerability.
-
-You can read more on the [CVE website](https://cve.mitre.org/).
-
-## How to protect against exploits
-
-The best prevention for exploits is to keep your organization's [software up to date](https://portal.msrc.microsoft.com/). Software vendors provide updates for many known vulnerabilities, so make sure these updates are applied to all devices.

-# Fileless threats
-
-What exactly are fileless threats? The term "fileless" suggests that a threat doesn't come in a file, such as a backdoor that lives only in the memory of a machine. However, there's no one definition for fileless malware. The term is used broadly, and sometimes to describe malware families that do rely on files to operate.
-
-Attacks involve [several stages](https://attack.mitre.org/wiki/ATT&CK_Matrix) for functionalities like execution, persistence, or information theft. Some parts of the attack chain may be fileless, while others may involve the file system in some form.
-
-For clarity, fileless threats are grouped into different categories.
-
-
-*Figure 1. Comprehensive diagram of fileless malware*
-
-Fileless threats can be classified by their entry point, which indicates how fileless malware can arrive on a machine. They can arrive via an exploit, through compromised hardware, or via regular execution of applications and scripts.
-
-Next, list the form of entry point. For example, exploits can be based on files or network data, PCI peripherals are a type of hardware vector, and scripts and executables are subcategories of the execution vector.
-
-Finally, classify the host of the infection. For example, a Flash application may contain a variety of threats such as an exploit, a simple executable, and malicious firmware from a hardware device.
-
-Classifying helps you divide and categorize the various kinds of fileless threats. Some are more dangerous but also more difficult to implement, while others are more commonly used despite (or precisely because of) not being very advanced.
-
-From this categorization, you can glean three main types of fileless threats based on how much fingerprint they may leave on infected machines.
-
-## Type I: No file activity performed
-
-A fully fileless malware can be considered one that never requires writing a file on the disk. How would such malware infect a machine in the first place? One example is where a target machine receives malicious network packets that exploit the EternalBlue vulnerability. The vulnerability allows the installation of the DoublePulsar backdoor, which ends up residing only in the kernel memory. In this case, there's no file or any data written on a file.
-
-A compromised device may also have malicious code hiding in device firmware (such as a BIOS), a USB peripheral (like the BadUSB attack), or in the firmware of a network card. All these examples don't require a file on the disk to run, and can theoretically live only in memory. The malicious code would survive reboots, disk reformats, and OS reinstalls.
-
-Infections of this type can be particularly difficult to detect because most antivirus products don’t have the capability to inspect firmware. In cases where a product does have the ability to inspect and detect malicious firmware, there are still significant challenges associated with remediation of threats at this level. This type of fileless malware requires high levels of sophistication and often depends on particular hardware or software configuration. It’s not an attack vector that can be exploited easily and reliably. While dangerous, threats of this type are uncommon and not practical for most attacks.
-
-## Type II: Indirect file activity
-
-There are other ways that malware can achieve fileless presence on a machine without requiring significant engineering effort. Fileless malware of this type doesn't directly write files on the file system, but they can end up using files indirectly. For example, with the [Poshspy backdoor](https://www.fireeye.com/blog/threat-research/2017/03/dissecting_one_ofap.html) attackers installed a malicious PowerShell command within the WMI repository and configured a WMI filter to run the command periodically.
-
-It’s possible to carry out such installation via command line without requiring a backdoor to already be on the file. The malware can be installed and theoretically run without ever touching the file system. However, the WMI repository is stored on a physical file in a central storage area managed by the CIM Object Manager, and usually contains legitimate data. Even though the infection chain does technically use a physical file, it’s considered a fileless attack because the WMI repository is a multi-purpose data container that can't be detected and removed.
-
-## Type III: Files required to operate
-
-Some malware can have a sort of fileless persistence, but not without using files to operate. An example for this scenario is Kovter, which creates a shell open verb handler in the registry for a random file extension. Opening a file with such extension will lead to the execution of a script through the legitimate tool mshta.exe.
-
-
-*Figure 2. Kovter’s registry key*
-
-When the open verb is invoked, the associated command from the registry is launched, which results in the execution of a small script. This script reads data from a further registry key and executes it, in turn leading to the loading of the final payload. However, to trigger the open verb in the first place, Kovter has to drop a file with the same extension targeted by the verb (in the example above, the extension is .bbf5590fd). It also has to set an autorun key configured to open such file when the machine starts.
-
-Kovter is considered a fileless threat because the file system is of no practical use. The files with random extensions contain junk data that isn't usable in verifying the presence of the threat. The files that store the registry are containers that can't be detected and deleted if malicious content is present.
-
-## Categorizing fileless threats by infection host
-
-Having described the broad categories, we can now dig into the details and provide a breakdown of the infection hosts. This comprehensive classification covers the panorama of what is usually referred to as fileless malware. It drives our efforts to research and develop new protection features that neutralize classes of attacks and ensure malware doesn't get the upper hand in the arms race.
-
-### Exploits
-
-**File-based** (Type III: executable, Flash, Java, documents): An initial file may exploit the operating system, the browser, the Java engine, the Flash engine, etc. to execute a shellcode and deliver a payload in memory. While the payload is fileless, the initial entry vector is a file.
-
-**Network-based** (Type I): A network communication that takes advantage of a vulnerability in the target machine can achieve code execution in the context of an application or the kernel. An example is WannaCry, which exploits a previously fixed vulnerability in the SMB protocol to deliver a backdoor within the kernel memory.
-
-### Hardware
-
-**Device-based** (Type I: network card, hard disk): Devices like hard disks and network cards require chipsets and dedicated software to function. Software residing and running in the chipset of a device is called firmware. Although a complex task, the firmware can be infected by malware, as the [Equation espionage group has been caught doing](https://www.kaspersky.com/blog/equation-hdd-malware/7623/).
-
-**CPU-based** (Type I): Modern CPUs are complex and may include subsystems running firmware for management purposes. Such firmware may be vulnerable to hijacking and allow the execution of malicious code that would operate from within the CPU. In December 2017, two researchers reported a vulnerability that can allow attackers to execute code inside the [Management Engine (ME)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Management_Engine) present in any modern CPU from Intel. Meanwhile, the attacker group PLATINUM has been observed to have the capability to use Intel's [Active Management Technology (AMT)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Active_Management_Technology) to perform [invisible network communications](https://cloudblogs.microsoft.com/microsoftsecure/2017/06/07/platinum-continues-to-evolve-find-ways-to-maintain-invisibility/), bypassing the installed operating system. ME and AMT are essentially autonomous micro-computers that live inside the CPU and that operate at a very low level. Because these technologies’ purpose is to provide remote manageability, they have direct access to hardware, are independent of the operating system, and can run even if the computer is turned off.
-
-Besides being vulnerable at the firmware level, CPUs could be manufactured with backdoors inserted directly in the hardware circuitry. This attack has been [researched and proved possible](https://www.emsec.rub.de/media/crypto/veroeffentlichungen/2015/03/19/beckerStealthyExtended.pdf) in the past. It has been reported that certain models of x86 processors contain a secondary embedded RISC-like CPU core that can [effectively provide a backdoor](https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/08/10/via_c3_x86_processor_backdoor/) through which regular applications can gain privileged execution.
-
-**USB-based** (Type I): USB devices of all kinds can be reprogrammed with malicious firmware capable of interacting with the operating system in nefarious ways. For example, the [BadUSB technique](https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2014/07/this-thumbdrive-hacks-computers-badusb-exploit-makes-devices-turn-evil/) allows a reprogrammed USB stick to act as a keyboard that sends commands to machines via keystrokes, or as a network card that can redirect traffic at will.
-
-**BIOS-based** (Type I): A BIOS is a firmware running inside a chipset. It executes when a machine is powered on, initializes the hardware, and then transfers control to the boot sector. The BIOS is an important component that operates at a low level and executes before the boot sector. It’s possible to reprogram the BIOS firmware with malicious code, as has happened in the past with the [Mebromi rootkit](https://www.webroot.com/blog/2011/09/13/mebromi-the-first-bios-rootkit-in-the-wild/).
-
-**Hypervisor-based** (Type I): Modern CPUs provide hardware hypervisor support, allowing the operating system to create robust virtual machines. A virtual machine runs in a confined, simulated environment, and is in theory unaware of the emulation. A malware taking over a machine may implement a small hypervisor to hide itself outside of the realm of the running operating system. Malware of this kind has been theorized in the past, and eventually real hypervisor rootkits [have been observed](http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2017/Jun/29), although few are known to date.

-**File-based** (Type III: executables, DLLs, LNK files, scheduled tasks): This is the standard execution vector. A simple executable can be launched as a first-stage malware to run an additional payload in memory, or injected into other legitimate running processes.
-
-**Macro-based** (Type III: Office documents): The [VBA language](/office/vba/Library-Reference/Concepts/getting-started-with-vba-in-office) is a flexible and powerful tool designed to automate editing tasks and add dynamic functionality to documents. As such, it can be abused by attackers to carry out malicious operations like decoding, running, or injecting an executable payload, or even implementing an entire ransomware, like in [the case of qkG](https://blog.trendmicro.com/trendlabs-security-intelligence/qkg-filecoder-self-replicating-document-encrypting-ransomware/). Macros are executed within the context of an Office process (e.g., Winword.exe) and implemented in a scripting language. There's no binary executable that an antivirus can inspect. While Office apps require explicit consent from the user to execute macros from a document, attackers use social engineering techniques to trick users into allowing macros to execute.
-
-**Script-based** (Type II: file, service, registry, WMI repo, shell): The JavaScript, VBScript, and PowerShell scripting languages are available by default on Windows platforms. Scripts have the same advantages as macros, they are textual files (not binary executables) and run within the context of the interpreter (like wscript.exe, powershell.exe), which is a clean and legitimate component. Scripts are versatile and can be run from a file (by double-clicking them) or executed directly on the command line of an interpreter. Running on the command line allows malware to encode malicious scripts as autostart services inside [autorun registry keys](https://www.gdatasoftware.com/blog/2014/07/23947-poweliks-the-persistent-malware-without-a-file) as [WMI event subscriptions](https://www.fireeye.com/blog/threat-research/2017/03/dissecting_one_ofap.html) from the WMI repo. Furthermore, an attacker who has gained access to an infected machine may input the script on the command prompt.
-
-**Disk-based** (Type II: Boot Record): The Boot Record is the first sector of a disk or volume, and contains executable code required to start the boot process of the operating system. Threats like [Petya](https://cloudblogs.microsoft.com/microsoftsecure/2017/06/27/new-ransomware-old-techniques-petya-adds-worm-capabilities/?source=mmpc) are capable of infecting the Boot Record by overwriting it with malicious code. When the machine is booted, the malware immediately gains control. The Boot Record resides outside the file system, but it’s accessible by the operating system. Modern antivirus products have the capability to scan and restore it.

-## Defeating fileless malware
-
-At Microsoft, we actively monitor the security landscape to identify new threat trends and develop solutions to mitigate classes of threats. We instrument durable protections that are effective against a wide range of threats. Through AntiMalware Scan Interface (AMSI), behavior monitoring, memory scanning, and boot sector protection, [Microsoft Defender for Endpoint](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/microsoft-defender-endpoint) can inspect fileless threats even with heavy obfuscation. Machine learning technologies in the cloud allow us to scale these protections against new and emerging threats.

-# Macro malware
-
-Macros are a powerful way to automate common tasks in Microsoft Office and can make people more productive. However, macro malware uses this functionality to infect your device.
-
-## How macro malware works
-
-Macro malware hides in Microsoft Office files and is delivered as email attachments or inside ZIP files. These files use names that are intended to entice or scare people into opening them. They often look like invoices, receipts, legal documents, and more.
-
-Macro malware was fairly common several years ago because macros ran automatically whenever a document was opened. In recent versions of Microsoft Office, macros are disabled by default. Now, malware authors need to convince users to turn on macros so that their malware can run. They try to scare users by showing fake warnings when a malicious document is opened.
-
-We've seen macro malware download threats from the following families:
-
-* [Ransom:MSIL/Swappa](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/threats/malware-encyclopedia-description?Name=Ransom:MSIL/Swappa.A)
-* [Ransom:Win32/Teerac](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/threats/malware-encyclopedia-description?Name=Ransom:Win32/Teerac&threatId=-2147277789)
-* [TrojanDownloader:Win32/Chanitor](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/threats/malware-encyclopedia-description?Name=TrojanDownloader:Win32/Chanitor.A)
-* [TrojanSpy:Win32/Ursnif](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/threats/malware-encyclopedia-description?Name=TrojanSpy:Win32/Ursnif)
-* [Win32/Fynloski](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/threats/malware-encyclopedia-description?Name=Win32/Fynloski)
-* [Worm:Win32/Gamarue](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/threats/malware-encyclopedia-description?Name=Win32/Gamarue)
-
-## How to protect against macro malware
-
-* Make sure macros are disabled in your Microsoft Office applications. In enterprises, IT admins set the default setting for macros:
- * [Enable or disable macros](https://support.office.com/article/Enable-or-disable-macros-in-Office-documents-7b4fdd2e-174f-47e2-9611-9efe4f860b12) in Office documents
-
-* Don’t open suspicious emails or suspicious attachments.
-
-* Delete any emails from unknown people or with suspicious content. Spam emails are the main way macro malware spreads.
-
-* Enterprises can prevent macro malware from running executable content using [ASR rules](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/attack-surface-reduction)
-
-For more tips on protecting yourself from suspicious emails, see [phishing](phishing.md).
-
-For more general tips, see [prevent malware infection](prevent-malware-infection.md).

-# Phishing trends and techniques
-
-Phishing attacks are scams that often use social engineering bait or lure content. Legitimate-looking communication, usually email, that links to a phishing site is one of the most common methods used in phishing attacks. The phishing site typically mimics sign in pages that require users to input credentials and account information. The phishing site then captures the sensitive information as soon as the user provides it, giving attackers access to the information.
-
-Below are some of the most common phishing techniques attackers will employ to try to steal information or gain access to your devices.
-
-## Invoice phishing
-
-In this scam, the attacker attempts to lure you with an email stating that you have an outstanding invoice from a known vendor or company. They then provide a link for you to access and pay your invoice. When you access the site, the attacker is poised to steal your personal information and funds.
-
-## Payment/delivery scam
-
-You're asked to provide a credit card or other personal information so that your payment information can be updated with a commonly known vendor or supplier. The update is requested so that you can take delivery of your ordered goods. Generally, you may be familiar with the company and have likely done business with them in the past. However, you aren't aware of any items you have recently purchased from them.
-
-## Tax-themed phishing scams
-
-A common IRS phishing scam is receiving an urgent email letter indicating that you owe money to the IRS. Often the email threatens legal action if you don't access the site in a timely manner and pay your taxes. When you access the site, the attackers can steal your personal credit card or bank information and drain your accounts.
-
-## Downloads
-
-An attacker sends a fraudulent email requesting you to open or download a document attachment, such as a PDF. The attachment often contains a message asking you to sign in to another site, such as email or file sharing websites, to open the document. When you access these phishing sites using your sign-in credentials, the attacker now has access to your information and can gain additional personal information about you.
-
-## Phishing emails that deliver other threats
-
-Phishing emails are often effective, so attackers sometimes use them to distribute [ransomware](/security/compass/human-operated-ransomware) through links or attachments in emails. When run, the ransomware encrypts files and displays a ransom note, which asks you to pay a sum of money to access to your files.
-
-We have also seen phishing emails that have links to [tech support scam](support-scams.md) websites. These websites use various scare tactics to trick you into calling hotlines and paying for unnecessary "technical support services" that supposedly fix contrived device, platform, or software problems.
-
-## Spear phishing
-
-Spear phishing is a targeted phishing attack that involves highly customized lure content. Attackers will typically do reconnaissance work by surveying social media and other information sources about their intended target.
-
-Spear phishing may involve tricking you into logging into fake sites and divulging credentials. I may also lure you into opening documents by clicking on links that automatically install malware. With this malware in place, attackers can remotely manipulate the infected computer.
-
-The implanted malware serves as the point of entry for a more sophisticated attack, known as an advanced persistent threat (APT). APTs are designed to establish control and steal data over extended periods. Attackers may try to deploy more covert hacking tools, move laterally to other computers, compromise or create privileged accounts, and regularly exfiltrate information from compromised networks.
-
-## Whaling
-
-Whaling is a form of phishing directed at high-level or senior executives within specific companies to gain access to their credentials and/or bank information. The content of the email may be written as a legal subpoena, customer complaint, or other executive issue. This type of attack can also lead to an APT attack within an organization.
-
-## Business email compromise
-
-Business email compromise (BEC) is a sophisticated scam that targets businesses who frequently work with foreign suppliers or do money wire transfers. One of the most common schemes used by BEC attackers involves gaining access to a company’s network through a spear phishing attack. The attacker creates a domain similar to the company they're targeting, or spoofs their email to scam users into releasing personal account information for money transfers.

-# How to protect against phishing attacks
-
-Phishing attacks attempt to steal sensitive information through emails, websites, text messages, or other forms of electronic communication. They try to look like official communication from legitimate companies or individuals.
-
-Cybercriminals often attempt to steal usernames, passwords, credit card details, bank account information, or other credentials. They use stolen information for malicious purposes, such as hacking, identity theft, or stealing money directly from bank accounts and credit cards. The information can also be sold in cybercriminal underground markets.
-
-Social engineering attacks are designed to take advantage of a user's possible lapse in decision-making. Be aware and never provide sensitive or personal information through email or unknown websites, or over the phone. Remember, phishing emails are designed to appear legitimate.
-
-## Learn the signs of a phishing scam
-
-The best protection is awareness and education. Don’t open attachments or links in unsolicited emails, even if the emails came from a recognized source. If the email is unexpected, be wary about opening the attachment and verify the URL.
-
-Enterprises should educate and train their employees to be wary of any communication that requests personal or financial information. They should also instruct employees to report the threat to the company’s security operations team immediately.
-
-Here are several telltale signs of a phishing scam:
-
-* The links or URLs provided in emails are **not pointing to the correct location** or are pointing to a third-party site not affiliated with the sender of the email. For example, in the image below the URL provided doesn't match the URL that you'll be taken to.
-
- 
-
-* There's a **request for personal information** such as social security numbers or bank or financial information. Official communications won't generally request personal information from you in the form of an email.
-
-* **Items in the email address will be changed** so that it is similar enough to a legitimate email address, but has added numbers or changed letters.
-
-* The message is **unexpected and unsolicited**. If you suddenly receive an email from an entity or a person you rarely deal with, consider this email suspect.
-
-* The message or the attachment asks you to **enable macros, adjust security settings, or install applications**. Normal emails won't ask you to do this.
-
-* The message contains **errors**. Legitimate corporate messages are less likely to have typographic or grammatical errors or contain wrong information.
-
-* The **sender address doesn't match the signature** on the message itself. For example, an email is purported to be from Mary of Contoso Corp, but the sender address is john@example.com.
-
-* There are **multiple recipients** in the “To” field and they appear to be random addresses. Corporate messages are normally sent directly to individual recipients.
-
-* The greeting on the message itself **doesn't personally address you**. Apart from messages that mistakenly address a different person, greetings that misuse your name or pull your name directly from your email address tend to be malicious.
-
-* The website looks familiar but there are **inconsistencies or things that aren't quite right**. Warning signs include outdated logos, typos, or ask users to give additional information that is not asked by legitimate sign-in websites.
-
-* The page that opens is **not a live page**, but rather an image that is designed to look like the site you are familiar with. A pop-up may appear that requests credentials.
-
-If in doubt, contact the business by known channels to verify if any suspicious emails are in fact legitimate.
-
-## Software solutions for organizations
-
-* [Microsoft Edge](/microsoft-edge/deploy/index) and [Windows Defender Application Guard](../microsoft-defender-application-guard/md-app-guard-overview.md) offer protection from the increasing threat of targeted attacks using Microsoft's industry-leading Hyper-V virtualization technology. If a browsed website is deemed untrusted, the Hyper-V container will isolate that device from the rest of your network thereby preventing access to your enterprise data.
-
-* [Microsoft Exchange Online Protection (EOP)](https://products.office.com/exchange/exchange-email-security-spam-protection) offers enterprise-class reliability and protection against spam and malware, while maintaining access to email during and after emergencies. Using various layers of filtering, EOP can provide different controls for spam filtering, such as bulk mail controls and international spam, that will further enhance your protection services.
-
-* Use [Microsoft Defender for Office 365](https://products.office.com/exchange/online-email-threat-protection?ocid=cx-blog-mmpc) to help protect your email, files, and online storage against malware. It offers holistic protection in Microsoft Teams, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Visio, SharePoint Online, and OneDrive for Business. By protecting against unsafe attachments and expanding protection against malicious links, it complements the security features of Exchange Online Protection to provide better zero-day protection.
-
-## What to do if you've been a victim of a phishing scam
-
-If you feel you've been a victim of a phishing attack:
-
-1. Contact your IT admin if you are on a work computer
-2. Immediately change all passwords associated with the accounts
-3. Report any fraudulent activity to your bank and credit card company
-
-### Reporting spam
-
-- **Outlook.com**: If you receive a suspicious email message that asks for personal information, select the check box next to the message in your Outlook inbox. Select the arrow next to **Junk**, and then select **Phishing**.
-
-- **Microsoft Office Outlook**: While in the suspicious message, select **Report message** from the ribbon, and then select **Phishing**.
-
-- **Microsoft 365**: Use the [Submissions portal in Microsoft 365 Defender](/microsoft-365/security/office-365-security/report-junk-email-messages-to-microsoft) to submit the junk or phishing sample to Microsoft for analysis. For more information, see [Report messages and files to Microsoft](/microsoft-365/security/office-365-security/report-junk-email-messages-to-microsoft).
-
-- **Anti-Phishing Working Group**: phishing-report@us-cert.gov. The group uses reports generated from emails sent to fight phishing scams and hackers. ISPs, security vendors, financial institutions, and law enforcement agencies are involved.
-
-### If you’re on a suspicious website
-
-- **Microsoft Edge**: While you’re on a suspicious site, select the **More (…) icon** > **Help and feedback** > **Report Unsafe site**. Follow the instructions on the webpage that displays to report the website.
-
-- **Internet Explorer**: While you’re on a suspicious site, select the gear icon, point to **Safety**, and then select **Report Unsafe Website**. Follow the instructions on the webpage that displays to report the website.

-# Troubleshooting malware submission errors caused by administrator block
-In some instances, an administrator block might cause submission issues when you try to submit a potentially infected file to the [Microsoft Security intelligence website](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi) for analysis. The following process shows how to resolve this problem.
-
-## Review your settings
-Open your Azure [Enterprise application settings](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/StartboardApplicationsMenuBlade/UserSettings/menuId/). Under **Enterprise Applications** > **Users can consent to apps accessing company data on their behalf**, check whether Yes or No is selected.
-
-- If **No** is selected, an Azure AD administrator for the customer tenant will need to provide consent for the organization. Depending on the configuration with Azure AD, users might be able to submit a request right from the same dialog box. If there’s no option to ask for admin consent, users need to request for these permissions to be added to their Azure AD admin. Go to the following section for more information.
-
-- If **Yes** is selected, ensure the Windows Defender Security Intelligence app setting **Enabled for users to sign in?** is set to **Yes** [in Azure](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/ManagedAppMenuBlade/Properties/appId/f0cf43e5-8a9b-451c-b2d5-7285c785684d/objectId/4a918a14-4069-4108-9b7d-76486212d75d). If **No** is selected, you'll need to request an Azure AD admin enable it.
-
-## Implement Required Enterprise Application permissions
-This process requires a global or application admin in the tenant.
- 1. Open [Enterprise Application settings](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/ManagedAppMenuBlade/Permissions/appId/f0cf43e5-8a9b-451c-b2d5-7285c785684d/objectId/4a918a14-4069-4108-9b7d-76486212d75d).
- 2. Select **Grant admin consent for organization**.
- 3. If you're able to do so, review the API permissions required for this application, as the following image shows. Provide consent for the tenant.
-
- 
-
- 4. If the administrator receives an error while attempting to provide consent manually, try either [Option 1](#option-1-approve-enterprise-application-permissions-by-user-request) or [Option 2](#option-2-provide-admin-consent-by-authenticating-the-application-as-an-admin) as possible workarounds.
-
-## Option 1 Approve enterprise application permissions by user request
-> [!Note]
-> This is currently a preview feature.
-
-Azure Active Directory admins will need to allow for users to request admin consent to apps. Verify the setting is configured to **Yes** in [Enterprise applications](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/StartboardApplicationsMenuBlade/UserSettings/menuId/).
-
-
-
-More information is available in [Configure Admin consent workflow](/azure/active-directory/manage-apps/configure-admin-consent-workflow).
-
-Once this setting is verified, users can go through the enterprise customer sign-in at [Microsoft security intelligence](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi/filesubmission), and submit a request for admin consent, including justification.
-
-
-
-Admin will be able to review and approve the application permissions [Azure admin consent requests](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/StartboardApplicationsMenuBlade/AccessRequests/menuId/).
-
-After providing consent, all users in the tenant will be able to use the application.
-
-## Option 2 Provide admin consent by authenticating the application as an admin
-This process requires that global admins go through the Enterprise customer sign-in flow at [Microsoft security intelligence](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi/filesubmission).
-
-
-
-Then, admins review the permissions and make sure to select **Consent on behalf of your organization**, and then select **Accept**.
-
-All users in the tenant will now be able to use this application.
-
-## Option 3: Delete and readd app permissions
-If neither of these options resolve the issue, try the following steps (as an admin):
-
-1. Remove previous configurations for the application. Go to [Enterprise applications](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/ManagedAppMenuBlade/Properties/appId/f0cf43e5-8a9b-451c-b2d5-7285c785684d/objectId/982e94b2-fea9-4d1f-9fca-318cda92f90b)
-and select **delete**.
-
- 
-
-2. Capture TenantID from [Properties](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/ActiveDirectoryMenuBlade/Properties).
-
-3. Replace {tenant-id} with the specific tenant that needs to grant consent to this application in the URL below. Copy this URL into browser. The rest of the parameters are already completed.
-``https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant-id}/v2.0/adminconsent?client_id=f0cf43e5-8a9b-451c-b2d5-7285c785684d&state=12345&redirect_uri=https%3a%2f%2fwww.microsoft.com%2fwdsi%2ffilesubmission&scope=openid+profile+email+offline_access``
-
- 
-
-4. Review the permissions required by the application, and then select **Accept**.
-
-5. Confirm the permissions are applied in the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/ManagedAppMenuBlade/Permissions/appId/f0cf43e5-8a9b-451c-b2d5-7285c785684d/objectId/ce60a464-5fca-4819-8423-bcb46796b051).
-
- 
-
-6. Sign in to [Microsoft security intelligence](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi/filesubmission) as an enterprise user with a non-admin account to see if you have access.
-
- If the warning is not resolved after following these troubleshooting steps, call Microsoft support.

-# Prevent malware infection
-
-Malware authors are always looking for new ways to infect computers. Follow the tips below to stay protected and minimize threats to your data and accounts.
-
-## Keep software up to date
-
-[Exploits](exploits-malware.md) typically use vulnerabilities in popular software such as web browsers, Java, Adobe Flash Player, and Microsoft Office to infect devices. Software updates patch vulnerabilities so they aren't available to exploits anymore.
-
-To keep Microsoft software up to date, ensure that [automatic Microsoft Updates](https://support.microsoft.com/help/12373/windows-update-faq) are enabled. Also, upgrade to the latest version of Windows to benefit from a host of built-in security enhancements.
-
-## Be wary of links and attachments
-
-Email and other messaging tools are a few of the most common ways your device can get infected. Attachments or links in messages can open malware directly or can stealthily trigger a download. Some emails give instructions to allow macros or other executable content designed to make it easier for malware to infect your devices.
-
-* Use an email service that provides protection against malicious attachments, links, and abusive senders. [Microsoft Office 365](/microsoft-365/security/office-365-security/anti-spam-and-anti-malware-protection) has built-in antimalware, link protection, and spam filtering.
-
-For more information, see [phishing](phishing.md).
-
-## Watch out for malicious or compromised websites
-
-When you visit malicious or compromised sites, your device can get infected with malware automatically or you can get tricked into downloading and installing malware. See [exploits and exploit kits](exploits-malware.md) as an example of how some of these sites can automatically install malware to visiting computers.
-
-To identify potentially harmful websites, keep the following in mind:
-
-* The initial part (domain) of a website address should represent the company that owns the site you are visiting. Check the domain for misspellings. For example, malicious sites commonly use domain names that swap the letter O with a zero (0) or the letters L and I with a one (1). If example.com is spelled examp1e.com, the site you are visiting is suspect.
-
-* Sites that aggressively open popups and display misleading buttons often trick users into accepting content through constant popups or mislabeled buttons.
-
-To block malicious websites, use a modern web browser like [Microsoft Edge](https://www.microsoft.com/windows/microsoft-edge?ocid=cx-wdsi-articles) that identifies phishing and malware websites and checks downloads for malware.
-
-If you encounter an unsafe site, click **More […] > Send feedback** on Microsoft Edge. You can also [report unsafe sites directly to Microsoft](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi/support/report-unsafe-site).
-
-### Pirated material on compromised websites
-
-Using pirated content is not only illegal, it can also expose your device to malware. Sites that offer pirated software and media are also often used to distribute malware when the site is visited. Sometimes pirated software is bundled with malware and other unwanted software when downloaded, including intrusive browser plugins and adware.
-
-Users do not openly discuss visits to these sites, so any untoward experience are more likely to stay unreported.
-
-To stay safe, download movies, music, and apps from official publisher websites or stores. Consider running a streamlined OS such as [Windows 10 Pro SKU S Mode](https://www.microsoft.com/windows/s-mode), which ensures that only vetted apps from the Windows Store are installed.
-
-## Don't attach unfamiliar removable drives
-
-Some types of malware spread by copying themselves to USB flash drives or other removable drives. There are malicious individuals that intentionally prepare and distribute infected drives by leaving them in public places for unsuspecting individuals.
-
-Only use removable drives that you are familiar with or that come from a trusted source. If a drive has been used in publicly accessible devices, like computers in a café or a library, make sure you have antimalware running on your computer before you use the drive. Avoid opening unfamiliar files you find on suspect drives, including Office and PDF documents and executable files.
-
-## Use a non-administrator account
-
-At the time they are launched, whether inadvertently by a user or automatically, most malware run under the same privileges as the active user. This means that by limiting account privileges, you can prevent malware from making consequential changes any devices.
-
-By default, Windows uses [User Account Control (UAC)](../../identity-protection/user-account-control/user-account-control-overview.md) to provide automatic, granular control of privileges—it temporarily restricts privileges and prompts the active user every time an application attempts to make potentially consequential changes to the system. Although UAC helps limit the privileges of admin users, users can override this restriction when prompted. As a result, it is quite easy for an admin user to inadvertently allow malware to run.
-
-To help ensure that everyday activities do not result in malware infection and other potentially catastrophic changes, it is recommended that you use a non-administrator account for regular use. By using a non-administrator account, you can prevent installation of unauthorized apps and prevent inadvertent changes to system settings. Avoid browsing the web or checking email using an account with administrator privileges.
-
-Whenever necessary, log in as an administrator to install apps or make configuration changes that require admin privileges.
-
-[Read about creating user accounts and giving administrator privileges](https://support.microsoft.com/help/4026923/windows-create-a-local-user-or-administrator-account-in-windows-10)
-
-## Other safety tips
-
-To further ensure that data is protected from malware and other threats:
-
-* Backup files. Follow the 3-2-1 rule: make **3 copies**, store in at least **2 locations**, with at least **1 offline copy**. Use [OneDrive](https://onedrive.live.com/about) for reliable cloud-based copies that allow access to files from multiple devices and helps recover damaged or lost files, including files locked by ransomware.
-
-* Be wary when connecting to public hotspots, particularly those that do not require authentication.
-
-* Use [strong passwords](https://support.microsoft.com/help/12410/microsoft-account-help-protect-account) and enable multi-factor authentication.
-
-* Do not use untrusted devices to log on to email, social media, and corporate accounts.
-
-* Avoid downloading or running older apps. Some of these apps might have vulnerabilities. Also, older file formats for Office 2003 (.doc, .pps, and .xls) allow macros or run. This could be a security risk.
-
-## Software solutions
-
-Microsoft provides comprehensive security capabilities that help protect against threats. We recommend:
-
-* [Automatic Microsoft updates](https://support.microsoft.com/help/12373/windows-update-faq) keeps software up to date to get the latest protections.
-
-* [Controlled folder access](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/enable-controlled-folders) stops ransomware in its tracks by preventing unauthorized access to your important files. Controlled folder access locks down folders, allowing only authorized apps to access files. Unauthorized apps, including ransomware and other malicious executable files, DLLs, and scripts are denied access.
-
-* [Microsoft Edge](/microsoft-edge/deploy/index) browser protects against threats such as ransomware by preventing exploit kits from running. By using [Windows Defender SmartScreen](/microsoft-edge/deploy/index), Microsoft Edge blocks access to malicious websites.
-
-* [Microsoft Exchange Online Protection (EOP)](https://products.office.com/exchange/exchange-email-security-spam-protection) offers enterprise-class reliability and protection against spam and malware, while maintaining access to email during and after emergencies.
-
-* [Microsoft Safety Scanner](safety-scanner-download.md) helps remove malicious software from computers. NOTE: This tool does not replace your antimalware product.
-
-* [Microsoft 365](/microsoft-365/enterprise/) includes Office 365, Windows 10, and Enterprise Mobility + Security. These resources power productivity while providing intelligent security across users, devices, and data.
-
-* [Microsoft Defender for Office 365](/office365/servicedescriptions/office-365-advanced-threat-protection-service-description) includes machine learning capabilities that block dangerous emails, including millions of emails carrying ransomware downloaders.
-
-* [OneDrive for Business](https://support.office.com/article/restore-a-previous-version-of-a-file-in-onedrive-159cad6d-d76e-4981-88ef-de6e96c93893?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US) can back up files, which you would then use to restore files in the event of an infection.
-
-* [Microsoft Defender for Endpoint](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/microsoft-defender-endpoint) provides comprehensive endpoint protection, detection, and response capabilities to help prevent ransomware. In the event of a breach, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint alerts security operations teams about suspicious activities and automatically attempts to resolve the problem. This includes alerts for suspicious PowerShell commands, connecting to a TOR website, launching self-replicated copies, and deletion of volume shadow copies. Try Microsoft Defender for Endpoint free of charge.

-# Rootkits
-
-Malware authors use rootkits to hide malware on your device, allowing malware to persist as long as possible. A successful rootkit can potentially remain in place for years if it's undetected. During this time, it will steal information and resources.
-
-## How rootkits work
-
-Rootkits intercept and change standard operating system processes. After a rootkit infects a device, you can’t trust any information that device reports about itself.
-
-If you were to ask a device to list all of the programs that are running, the rootkit might stealthily remove any programs it doesn’t want you to know about. Rootkits are all about hiding things. They want to hide both themselves and their malicious activity on a device.
-
-Many modern malware families use rootkits to try to avoid detection and removal, including:
-
-* [Alureon](https://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/threat/encyclopedia/Entry.aspx?Name=Win32%2fAlureon)
-
-* [Cutwail](https://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/threat/encyclopedia/Entry.aspx?Name=Win32%2fCutwail)
-
-* [Datrahere](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi/threats/malware-encyclopedia-description?Name=Trojan:Win64/Detrahere) (Zacinlo)
-
-* [Rustock](https://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/threat/encyclopedia/entry.aspx?Name=Win32%2fRustock)
-
-* [Sinowal](https://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/threat/encyclopedia/Entry.aspx?Name=Win32%2fSinowal)
-
-* [Sirefef](https://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/threat/encyclopedia/Entry.aspx?Name=Win32%2fSirefef)
-
-## How to protect against rootkits
-
-Like any other type of malware, the best way to avoid rootkits is to prevent it from being installed in the first place.
-
-* Apply the latest updates to operating systems and apps.
-
-* Educate your employees so they can be wary of suspicious websites and emails.
-
-* Back up important files regularly. Use the 3-2-1 rule. Keep three backups of your data, on two different storage types, and at least one backup offsite.
-
-For more general tips, see [prevent malware infection](prevent-malware-infection.md).
-
-### What if I think I have a rootkit on my device?
-
-Microsoft security software includes a number of technologies designed specifically to remove rootkits. If you think you have a rootkit that your antimalware software isn’t detecting, you may need an extra tool that lets you boot to a known trusted environment.
-
-[Microsoft Defender Offline](https://support.microsoft.com/help/17466/microsoft-defender-offline-help-protect-my-pc) can be launched from the Windows Security app and has the latest antimalware updates from Microsoft. It’s designed to be used on devices that aren't working correctly because of a possible malware infection.
-
-[System Guard](https://cloudblogs.microsoft.com/microsoftsecure/2017/10/23/hardening-the-system-and-maintaining-integrity-with-windows-defender-system-guard/) in Windows 10 protects against rootkits and threats that impact system integrity.
-
-### What if I can’t remove a rootkit?
-
-If the problem persists, we strongly recommend reinstalling the operating system and security software. Then restore your data from a backup.

-# Submit files for analysis
-
-If you have a file that you suspect might be malware or is being incorrectly detected, you can submit it to us for analysis. This page has answers to some common questions about submitting a file for analysis.
-
-## How do I send a malware file to Microsoft?
-
-You can send us files that you think might be malware or files that have been incorrectly detected through the [sample submission portal](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/filesubmission).
-
-We receive a large number of samples from many sources. Our analysis is prioritized by the number of file detections and the type of submission. You can help us complete a quick analysis by providing detailed information about the product you were using and what you were doing when you found the file.
-
-After you sign in, you will be able to track your submissions.
-
-## Can I send a sample by email?
-
-No, we only accept submissions through our [sample submission portal](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/filesubmission).
-
-## Can I submit a sample without signing in?
-
-No. If you're an enterprise customer, you need to sign in so that we can prioritize your submission appropriately. If you are currently experiencing a virus outbreak or security-related incident, you should contact your designated Microsoft support professional or go to [Microsoft Support](https://support.microsoft.com/) for immediate assistance.
-
-## What is the Software Assurance ID (SAID)?
-
-The [Software Assurance ID (SAID)](https://www.microsoft.com/licensing/licensing-programs/software-assurance-default.aspx) is for enterprise customers to track support entitlements. The submission portal accepts and retains SAID information and allows customers with valid SAIDs to make higher priority submissions.
-
-### How do I dispute the detection of my program?
-
-[Submit the file](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/filesubmission) in question as a software developer. Wait until your submission has a final determination.
-
-If you’re not satisfied with our determination of the submission, use the developer contact form provided with the submission results to reach Microsoft. We will use the information you provide to investigate further if necessary.
-
-We encourage all software vendors and developers to read about [how Microsoft identifies malware and unwanted software](criteria.md).
-
-## How do I track or view past sample submissions?
-
-You can track your submissions through the [submission history page](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/submissionhistory).
-
-## What does the submission status mean?
-
-Each submission is shown to be in one of the following status types:
-
-* Submitted—the file has been received
-
-* In progress—an analyst has started checking the file
-
-* Closed—a final determination has been given by an analyst
-
-You can see the status of any files you submit to us on the [submission history page](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/submissionhistory).
-
-## How does Microsoft prioritize submissions
-
-Processing submissions take dedicated analyst resource. Because we regularly receive a large number of submissions, we handle them based on a priority. The following factors affect how we prioritize submissions:
-
-* Prevalent files with the potential to impact large numbers of computers are prioritized.
-
-* Authenticated customers, especially enterprise customers with valid [Software Assurance IDs (SAIDs)](https://www.microsoft.com/licensing/licensing-programs/software-assurance-default.aspx), are given priority.
-
-* Submissions flagged as high priority by SAID holders are given immediate attention.
-
-Your submission is immediately scanned by our systems to give you the latest determination even before an analyst starts handling your case. Note that the same file may have already been processed by an analyst. To check for updates to the determination, select rescan on the submission details page.

-# Supply chain attacks
-
-Supply chain attacks are an emerging kind of threat that target software developers and suppliers. The goal is to access source codes, build processes, or update mechanisms by infecting legitimate apps to distribute malware.
-
-## How supply chain attacks work
-
-> [!video https://www.youtube.com/embed/uXm2XNSavwo]
-
-Attackers hunt for unsecure network protocols, unprotected server infrastructures, and unsafe coding practices. They break in, change source codes, and hide malware in build and update processes.
-
-Because software is built and released by trusted vendors, these apps and updates are signed and certified. In software supply chain attacks, vendors are likely unaware that their apps or updates are infected with malicious code when they’re released to the public. The malicious code then runs with the same trust and permissions as the app.
-
-The number of potential victims is significant, given the popularity of some apps. A case occurred where a free file compression app was poisoned and deployed to customers in a country where it was the top utility app.
-
-### Types of supply chain attacks
-
-* Compromised software building tools or updated infrastructure
-
-* Stolen code-sign certificates or signed malicious apps using the identity of dev company
-
-* Compromised specialized code shipped into hardware or firmware components
-
-* Pre-installed malware on devices (cameras, USB, phones, etc.)
-
-To learn more about supply chain attacks, read this blog post called [attack inception: compromised supply chain within a supply chain poses new risks](https://cloudblogs.microsoft.com/microsoftsecure/2018/07/26/attack-inception-compromised-supply-chain-within-a-supply-chain-poses-new-risks/).
-
-## How to protect against supply chain attacks
-
-* Deploy strong code integrity policies to allow only authorized apps to run.
-
-* Use endpoint detection and response solutions that can automatically detect and remediate suspicious activities.
-
-### For software vendors and developers
-
-* Maintain a highly secure build and update infrastructure.
- * Immediately apply security patches for OS and software.
- * Implement mandatory integrity controls to ensure only trusted tools run.
- * Require multi-factor authentication for admins.
-
-* Build secure software updaters as part of the software development lifecycle.
- * Require SSL for update channels and implement certificate pinning.
- * Sign everything, including configuration files, scripts, XML files, and packages.
- * Check for digital signatures, and don’t let the software updater accept generic input and commands.
-
-* Develop an incident response process for supply chain attacks.
- * Disclose supply chain incidents and notify customers with accurate and timely information

-# Tech support scams
-
-Tech support scams are an industry-wide issue where scammers use scare tactics to trick users into paying for unnecessary technical support services that supposedly fix contrived device, platform, or software problems.
-
-## How tech support scams work
-
-Scammers may call you directly on your phone and pretend to be representatives of a software company. They might even spoof the caller ID so that it displays a legitimate support phone number from a trusted company. They can then ask you to install applications that give them remote access to your device. Using remote access, these experienced scammers can misrepresent normal system output as signs of problems.
-
-Scammers might also initiate contact by displaying fake error messages on websites you visit, displaying support numbers and enticing you to call. They can also put your browser on full screen and display pop-up messages that won't go away, essentially locking your browser. These fake error messages aim to trick you into calling an indicated technical support hotline. Note that Microsoft error and warning messages never include phone numbers.
-
-When you engage with the scammers, they can offer fake solutions for your “problems” and ask for payment in the form of a one-time fee or subscription to a purported support service.
-
-**For more information, view [known tech support scam numbers and popular web scams](https://support.microsoft.com/help/4013405/windows-protect-from-tech-support-scams).**
-
-## How to protect against tech support scams
-
-Share and implement the general tips on how to [prevent malware infection](prevent-malware-infection.md).
-
-It is also important to keep the following in mind:
-
-* Microsoft does not send unsolicited email messages or make unsolicited phone calls to request personal or financial information, or to fix your computer.
-
-* Any communication with Microsoft has to be initiated by you.
-
-* Don’t call the number in the pop-ups. Microsoft’s error and warning messages never include a phone number.
-
-* Download software only from official vendor websites or the Microsoft Store. Be wary of downloading software from third-party sites, as some of them might have been modified without the author’s knowledge to bundle support scam malware and other threats.
-
-* Use [Microsoft Edge](https://www.microsoft.com/windows/microsoft-edge) when browsing the internet. It blocks known support scam sites using Windows Defender SmartScreen (which is also used by Internet Explorer). Furthermore, Microsoft Edge can stop pop-up dialogue loops used by these sites.
-
-* Enable [Microsoft Defender Antivirus](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/microsoft-defender-antivirus-in-windows-10) in Windows 10. It detects and removes known support scam malware.
-
-## What to do if information has been given to a tech support person
-
-* Uninstall applications that scammers asked to be install. If access has been granted, consider resetting the device
-
-* Run a full scan with Microsoft Defender Antivirus to remove any malware. Apply all security updates as soon as they are available.
-
-* Change passwords.
-
-* Call your credit card provider to reverse the charges, if you have already paid.
-
-* Monitor anomalous logon activity. Use Windows Defender Firewall to block traffic to services that you would not normally access.
-
-### Reporting tech support scams
-
-Help Microsoft stop scammers, whether they claim to be from Microsoft or from another tech company, by reporting tech support scams:
-
-www.microsoft.com/reportascam
-
-You can also report any **unsafe website** that you suspect is a phishing website or contains malicious content directly to Microsoft by filling out a [Report an unsafe site form](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi/support/report-unsafe-site) or using built in web browser functionality.

-# Trojans
-
-Trojans are a common type of malware which, unlike viruses, can’t spread on their own. This means they either have to be downloaded manually or another malware needs to download and install them.
-
-Trojans often use the same file names as real and legitimate apps. It is easy to accidentally download a trojan thinking that it is a legitimate app.
-
-## How trojans work
-
-Trojans can come in many different varieties, but generally they do the following:
-
-- Download and install other malware, such as viruses or [worms](worms-malware.md).
-
-- Use the infected device for click fraud.
-
-- Record keystrokes and websites visited.
-
-- Send information about the infected device to a malicious hacker including passwords, login details for websites, and browsing history.
-
-- Give a malicious hacker control over the infected device.
-
-## How to protect against trojans
-
-Use the following free Microsoft software to detect and remove it:
-
-- [Microsoft Defender Antivirus](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/microsoft-defender-antivirus-in-windows-10) for Windows 10 and Windows 8.1, or [Microsoft Security Essentials](https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=5201) for previous versions of Windows.
-
-- [Microsoft Safety Scanner](safety-scanner-download.md)

-# Understanding malware & other threats
-
-Malware is a term used to describe malicious applications and code that can cause damage and disrupt normal use of devices. Malware can allow unauthorized access, use system resources, steal passwords, lock you out of your computer and ask for ransom, and more.
-
-Cybercriminals that distribute malware are often motivated by money and will use infected computers to launch attacks, obtain banking credentials, collect information that can be sold, sell access to computing resources, or extort payment from victims.
-
-As criminals become more sophisticated with their attacks, Microsoft is here to help. Windows 10 is the most secure version of Windows yet and includes many features to help protect you whether you're at home, at work, or on the go. With [Microsoft Defender for Endpoint](https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-365/windows/microsoft-defender-atp), businesses can stay protected with next-generation protection and other security capabilities.

-# Unwanted software
-
-Unwanted software are programs that alter the Windows experience without your consent or control. This can take the form of modified browsing experience, lack of control over downloads and installation, misleading messages, or unauthorized changes to Windows settings.
-
-## How unwanted software works
-
-Unwanted software can be introduced when a user searches for and downloads applications from the internet. Some applications are software bundlers, which means that they are packed with other applications. As a result, other programs can be inadvertently installed when the original application is downloaded.
-
-Here are some indications of unwanted software:
-
-- There are programs that you did not install and that may be difficult to uninstall
-
-- Browser features or settings have changed, and you can’t view or modify them
-
-- There are excessive messages about your device's health or about files and programs
-
-- There are ads that cannot be easily closed
-
-Some indicators are harder to recognize because they are less disruptive, but are still unwanted. For example, unwanted software can modify web pages to display specific ads, monitor browsing activities, or remove control of the browser.
-
-Microsoft uses an extensive [evaluation criteria](criteria.md) to identify unwanted software.
-
-## How to protect against unwanted software
-
-To prevent unwanted software infection, download software only from official websites, or from the Microsoft Store. Be wary of downloading software from third-party sites.
-
-Use [Microsoft Edge](/microsoft-edge/deploy/index) when browsing the internet. Microsoft Edge includes additional protections that effectively block browser modifiers that can change your browser settings. Microsoft Edge also blocks known websites hosting unwanted software using [Windows Defender SmartScreen](/microsoft-edge/deploy/index) (also used by Internet Explorer).
-
-Enable [Microsoft Defender Antivirus](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/microsoft-defender-antivirus-in-windows-10) in Windows 10. It provides real-time protection against threats and detects and removes known unwanted software.
-
-Download [Microsoft Security Essentials](https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=5201) for real-time protection in Windows 7 or Windows Vista.
-
-For more general tips, see [prevent malware infection](prevent-malware-infection.md).
-
-### What should I do if my device is infected?
-
-If you suspect that you have unwanted software, you can [submit files for analysis](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi/filesubmission).
-
-Some unwanted software adds uninstallation entries, which means that you can **remove them using Settings**.
-1. Select the Start button
-2. Go to **Settings > Apps > Apps & features**.
-3. Select the app you want to uninstall, then click **Uninstall**.
-
-If you only recently noticed symptoms of unwanted software infection, consider sorting the apps by install date, and then uninstall the most recent apps that you did not install.
-

-# Worms
-
-A worm is a type of malware that can copy itself and often spreads through a network by exploiting security vulnerabilities. It can spread through email attachments, text messages, file-sharing programs, social networking sites, network shares, removable drives, and software vulnerabilities.
-
-## How worms work
-
-Worms represent a large category of malware. Different worms use different methods to infect devices. Depending on the variant, they can steal sensitive information, change security settings, send information to malicious hackers, stop users from accessing files, and other malicious activities.
-
-Jenxcus (also known as Dunihi), Gamarue (also known as Androm), and Bondat have consistently remained at the top of the list of malware that infects users running Microsoft software. Although these worms share some commonalities, it's interesting to note that they also have distinct characteristics.
-
-* **Jenxcus** has capabilities of not only infecting removable drives but can also act as a backdoor that connects back to its server. This threat typically gets into a device from a drive-by download attack, meaning it's installed when users just visit a compromised web page.
-
-* **Gamarue** typically arrives through spam campaigns, exploits, downloaders, social networking sites, and removable drives. When Gamarue infects a device, it becomes a distribution channel for other malware. We’ve seen it distribute other malware such as info stealers, spammers, clickers, downloaders, and rogues.
-
-* **Bondat** typically arrives through fictitious Nullsoft Scriptable Install System (NSIS), Java installers, and removable drives. When Bondat infects a system, it gathers information about the machine such as device name, Globally Unique Identifier (GUID), and OS build. It then sends that information to a remote server.
-
-Both Bondat and Gamarue have clever ways of obscuring themselves to evade detection. By hiding what they're doing, they try to avoid detection by security software.
-
-* [**WannaCrypt**](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi/threats/malware-encyclopedia-description?Name=Ransom:Win32/WannaCrypt) also deserves a mention here. Unlike older worms that often spread just because they could, modern worms often spread to drop a payload (like ransomware).
-
-This image shows how a worm can quickly spread through a shared USB drive.
-
-
-
-### *Figure worm spreading from a shared USB drive*
-
-## How to protect against worms
-
-Enable [Microsoft Defender Antivirus](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/microsoft-defender-antivirus-in-windows-10) in Windows 10. It provides real-time protection against threats and detects and removes known unwanted software.
-
-Download [Microsoft Security Essentials](https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=5201) for real-time protection in Windows 7 or Windows Vista.
-
-In case threat removal is unsuccessful, read about [troubleshooting malware detection and removal problems](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi/help/troubleshooting-infection).
-
-For more general tips, see [prevent malware infection](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/prevent-malware-infection).
