METHOD OF AND APPARATUS FOR MONITORING CODE TO DETECT INTRUSION CODE

A method and apparatus for monitoring a code to detect intrusion code is used to monitor target code to determine whether the target code is a resident code in a system or an intrusion code into the system. A first code pattern is extracted from the target code and a second code pattern is loaded from a storage unit, and a distance between the first code pattern and the second code pattern is calculated. The calculated distance is compared to a threshold to determine whether the target code is an intrusion code.
