Abstract

According to one embodiment, a computerized method operates by configuring a virtual machine operating within an electronic device with a first instrumentation for processing of a suspicious object. In response to detecting a type of event during processing of the suspicious object within the virtual machine, the virtual machine is automatically reconfigured with a second instrumentation that is different from the first instrumentation in efforts to achieve reduced configuration time and/or increased effectiveness in exploit detection.
