How can malware evade detection by antivirus software?

### REPLY:
One way malware can evade detection by antivirus software is by using packers or crypters to compress and encrypt its code, making it harder for antivirus scanners to identify the malicious content. Another technique is to use process hollowing, where the malware creates a legitimate process and replaces its code with the malicious payload. Additionally, malware can use anti-emulation techniques to detect if it is running in a virtual environment, which is often used by antivirus software for analysis.
