Explanation :

Threat behavior

This threat is a generic detection for malicious files that are hidden to protect them from detection or analysis.

The malicious file is usually encrypted or compressed and stored inside another program. This program decodes the malicious file and loads it. The malicious program can be injected into a clean process or loaded in a new process of its own.

Unlike a dropper, the malicious program is never written to disk as a separate file.
