About The Book
This book delves into the world of computer viruses from three essential perspectives: theoretical foundations, algorithmic aspects, and practical applications. It provides a comprehensive understanding of malware, including computer viruses and worms, using formal methods such as Turing machines, self-reproducing automata, and recursive functions. By doing so, the book offers a precise and exhaustive description of various types of malware and highlights the critical challenges in computer defense and antiviral strategies.

The book provides in-depth analysis of the source code for representative viruses and worms, giving readers insight into the algorithmic aspects of self-replicating code. It uses the C programming language to break down these concepts and make them easier to understand. This combination of theoretical and practical approaches equips readers with a solid understanding of the workings of computer viruses and how they can be combated.

Why It's Special

• Theoretical Approach: In-depth coverage of computer viruses, including formal definitions and the theory behind their behavior.

• Algorithmic Focus: Detailed analysis of virus source code, enabling a deeper understanding of self-replicating malware.

• Practical Relevance: Covers how computer viruses can be used in various real-world applications, with a focus on antiviral defense strategies.

• Programming Insight: The C programming language is systematically used to help readers understand how viruses and worms operate at the code level.

This book is essential for those interested in the theoretical and practical aspects of computer viruses, as well as professionals and researchers in the fields of cybersecurity and computer science.
