  • The goat file can be said is the best host for collecting computer viruses, unless those having encryption routines, and because of the extremely high contrast between the structure of the code in host program and the viral code, it reduces the time of finding the virus within the binary.

abstract
  • The goat file can be said is the best host for collecting computer viruses, unless those having encryption routines, and because of the extremely high contrast between the structure of the code in host program and the viral code, it reduces the time of finding the virus within the binary. There are several goat file generators available such as RoseGoat that can generate a number of goat files in different size, the user may also customize the size of the file that to be generated. Some goat files may print a message claiming its original size, this make ease of identifying the file has been infected or not. But not every virus has the same behavior, some tricks are still needed.
