Is it possible to write an antivirus program in Java such as that it can intercept a program from being executed? Can I have such a deep control of the OS in Java?
update: what about c#? same restrictions apply or that is a better way?
No they do not have a built-in antivirus.
It combines a mobile-optimized antivirus scanner with a mobile security manager to protect your device against viruses and sensitive apps, also killing processes and apps to clean memory.
Java (not the programming language) is categorized as a ransomware-type virus that was discovered by MalwareHunterTeam. Java is a version of Dcrtr ransomware and designed to stealthily infiltrate systems and encrypt users' data. Java ransomware adds the ". [[email protected]].
“It all depends on the platform and the desired capability of the attacker. For malware written for Android systems, you would probably use Java, and in the case of infecting a Mac, they might use Swift or Objective-C.”
Having such influence on the OS is possible. There is only the problem, that you will lose the platform independency or at least have to write the code for every given platform due to the reason that such actions require quite deep access of the system which could be achived with JNI, which would tie the method you use it in to the OS.
