Obfuscated Files or Information: Software Packing Defense Evasion [Mitre]
Adversaries may perform software packing or virtual machine software protection to conceal their code. Software packing is a method of compressing or encrypting an executable. Packing an executable changes the file signature in an attempt to avoid signature-based detection. Most decompression techniques decompress the executable code in memory. Virtual machine software protection translates an executable's original code into a special …
Subvert Trust Controls: Mark-of-the-Web Bypass Defense Evasion [Mitre]
Adversaries may abuse specific file formats to subvert Mark-of-the-Web (MOTW) controls.

Files that are tagged with MOTW are protected and cannot perform certain actions. For example, starting in MS Office …
Anti-UPX Unpacking Others
Anti-UPX Unpacking is the technique to prevent malware from being unpacked by tools like UPX. UPX packed binary indicates that the section names starting with UPX followed by a number (UPX0 and UPX1) and the string “UPX!” at the end of the PE header. This UPX reference structure is located at the end of the PE header and the header …
