This approach has given them a clearer idea of the actual state of affairs,\u201d says Vyacheslav Rusakov, senior software developer at Kaspersky Lab.<\/p>\n \u201cMalware is becoming more widespread every year. \u00a0Rootkits and complex threats demonstrate that cyber criminals are using increasingly sophisticated malicious code.
