What are some common evasion techniques used by malware to avoid detection?

### REPLY:
To evade detection, malware can use techniques like encrypting its code, modifying its structure or behavior to appear differently on each infection, or using packers and crypters to obfuscate its true nature. It can also employ rootkit functionality to hide its presence in the system, and use anti-VM or anti-sandbox techniques to detect if it is running in a virtual environment for analysis. These evasion techniques are crucial for malware to stay undetected and carry out its malicious activities.
