Anti-Trojan software
Anti-Trojan software is a specialized piece of software used to detect a Trojan horse. Anti-virus software can detect common Trojan horses but lack the signitures and heuristics for not so common Trojans.
Anti-trojan software typically uses two different techniques to accomplish this:
- Examining files to look for known viruses by means of a virus dictionary
- Identifying suspicious behavior from any computer program which might indicate infection
Most commercial anti-trojan software uses both of these approaches, with an emphasis on the trojan dictionary approach.
