Darwin’s theory seems to apply to malware

G Data’s newest Malware Report shows surprising new trend in cybercrime

Bochum (Germany): G Data’s newest Malware Report, which was published this week, shows a new and unexpected development in malware: the extreme growth of new malicious programs seems to be slowing down. Granted, the antivirus industry still needed to develop 1,381,967 new virus signatures to detect and block all new malware in the first semester of this year, which is an all time high. But the number is not as high as was to be expected: the figure is only marginally bigger (3.9%) than the 1,330,146 new malware types that were found in the semester before that. But according to the experts at G Data, this does not give anyone any reason to be relieved. The new malware that appeared this year has been the smartest code yet, suggesting an evolution not dissimilar to Darwin’s evolution theory.
