Abstract
According to one embodiment, a computerized method comprises conducting a first static scan on content within a file. Thereafter, if the first static scan did not result in the file being classified as malicious, the file is deconstructed to gain access to one or more objects within the file. A second static scan associated with the one or more objects is performed to determine whether the one or more objects are suspected of including malware. The file may then be classified as malicious based on results of the second static scan.
