The last and most important phase of a malware attack is the execution phase, where the malware carries out its intended actions. Consequently, the type of execution depends on the intentions of the malware.


 

Malware can only reach the execution phase if it is not detected or repelled during earlier stages. If malware is able to reach the final execution phase, then it is important to detect the malicious software as quickly as possible so that the potential damage can be contained.
