Does your organization have systems in place to detect malicious code as part of your continuous monitoring program?

Malicious code detection is a critical component of cybersecurity defense that identifies potentially harmful software such as viruses, worms, trojans, ransomware, and other malware before they can compromise systems. Effective detection requires multiple layers including signature-based detection, behavioral analysis, and anomaly detection to identify both known and novel threats. Evidence could include documentation of deployed anti-malware solutions (such as endpoint protection platforms), intrusion detection/prevention systems configuration details, security information and event management (SIEM) reports showing malware detection events, or malicious code incident response procedures that demonstrate how detected threats are handled.
