The 1980's saw the advent of widespread (and potentially damaging)
computer virus infection of both personal computer and mainframe
systems. The computer security field has been comparatively slow to
react to this emerging situation. It is only over the last two
years that a significant body of knowledge on the operation, likely
evolution and prevention of computer viruses has developed. A
Pathology of Computer Viruses gives a detailed overview of the
history of the computer virus and an in-depth technical review of
the principles of computer virus and worm operation under DOS, Mac,
UNIX and DEC operating systems. David Ferbrache considers the
possible extension of the threat to the mainframe systems
environment and suggests how the threat can be effectively
combatted using an antiviral management plan. The author addresses
the latest developments in "stealth" virus operations, specifically
the trend for virus authors to adopt extensive camouflage and
concealment techniques, which allow viruses to evade both existing
anti-viral software and to avoid detection by direct observation of
machine behaviour. A Pathology of Computer Viruses addresses a
distinct need - that of the computer specialist and professional
who needs a source reference work detailing all aspects of the
computer virus threat.
