Lacking the distinct features of "usual" JavaScript, obfuscation techniques like JSFuck can assist malicious JavaScript code in bypassing intrusion prevention systems [15] or content filters. For instance, the lack of alphanumeric characters in JSFuck and a flawed content filter allowed sellers to embed arbitrary JSFuck scripts in their eBay ...
In software development, obfuscation is the practice of creating source or machine code that is intentionally difficult for humans or computers to understand. Similar to obfuscation in natural language, code obfuscation may involve using unnecessarily roundabout ways to write statements. Programmers often obfuscate code to conceal its purpose ...
Jscrambler is a technology company mainly known for its JavaScript obfuscator and eponymous monitoring framework. The obfuscator makes it harder to reverse engineer a web application's client-side code and tamper with its integrity.
Decompilation is the process of transforming executable code into a high-level, human-readable format using a decompiler.This process is commonly used for tasks that involve reverse-engineering the logic behind executable code, such as recovering lost or unavailable source code.
To obfuscate their attacks, attackers can use polymorphic shellcode to create unique attack patterns. This technique typically involves encoding the payload in some fashion (e.g., XOR-ing each byte with 0x95), then placing a decoder in front of the payload before sending it. When the target executes the code, it runs the decoder which rewrites ...

Emulation may be used to defeat polymorphic obfuscation by letting the malware demangle itself in a virtual environment before utilizing other methods, such as traditional signature scanning. Such a virtual environment is sometimes called a sandbox. Polymorphism does not protect the virus against such emulation if the decrypted payload remains ...
Exploits that target browsers commonly encode shellcode in a JavaScript string using percent-encoding, escape sequence encoding "\uXXXX" or entity encoding. [10] Some exploits also obfuscate the encoded shellcode string further to prevent detection by IDS.
