Abstract

La présente demande se rapporte au domaine technique des ordinateurs, et concerne un procédé, un appareil et un dispositif de détection d'un fichier malveillant, ainsi qu'un support de stockage. La présente demande offre une solution qui peut permettre une détection dynamique multiplateforme d'un fichier malveillant. Le procédé consiste à : générer un environnement d'exploitation virtuel sur la base de la technologie des conteneurs ; simuler un environnement d'exploitation fourni par un système d'exploitation compatible avec un fichier d'essai ; une fois que le fichier d'essai a appelé une interface de programmation (API) fournie par l'environnement d'exploitation virtuel, convertir l'API appelée par le fichier d'essai dans l'environnement d'exploitation virtuel en une API fournie par un système d'exploitation d'un dispositif de détection ; et exécuter l'API convertie dans le système d'exploitation du dispositif de détection. L'exécution d'une API d'un système d'exploitation d'un dispositif de détection permet ainsi d'obtenir un effet de simulation de l'exécution d'une API d'un premier système d'exploitation. Par conséquent, un environnement d'exploitation virtuel fourni par le dispositif de détection peut être compatible avec l'exploitation normale d'un fichier d'essai, ce qui permet d'éliminer la dépendance du fichier d'essai envers un système d'exploitation spécifique et d'obtenir ainsi une détection multiplateforme d'un fichier malveillant.
