Daniel Kahneman along side of Amos Tversky revolutionized research on human judgment. They conceptualized the idea of the “heuristics and biases” program – that judgment under uncertainty Often rests on a limited number of simplifying heuristics rather than extensive algorithmic processing. Gigerenzer criticized Kehneman and Tverskys research stating that humans are capable of processing more complex algorithms than what Kehneman and Tversky were giving homage to. Thus a debate of what the cognitive

detection involves searching for known patterns of data within executable code. However‚ it is possible for a computer to be infected with new malware for which no signature is yet known. To counter such so-called zero-day threats‚ heuristics can be used. One type of heuristic approach‚ generic signatures‚ can identify new viruses or variants of existing viruses by looking for known malicious code‚ or slight variations of such code‚ in files. Some antivirus software can also predict what a file will do
