Description: Ghostware refers to a type of malware specifically designed to infiltrate computer systems without leaving a trace, making detection and removal difficult. Unlike other types of malware that may generate obvious files or logs of their activity, Ghostware operates stealthily, employing advanced techniques to hide its presence. This includes manipulating system logs, deleting temporary files, and using encryption techniques to conceal its code. Its furtive nature makes it an attractive tool for cybercriminals seeking to steal sensitive information, conduct espionage, or carry out prolonged attacks without being detected. The increasing sophistication of Ghostware poses a significant challenge for cybersecurity systems, as traditional malware detection methods may not be effective against these invisible threats. Therefore, implementing more advanced cybersecurity solutions and ongoing training in vulnerability analysis are essential to combat this type of malware.
