Volume Count: Similar to the detection count, the Volume Count is specifically based on the number of confirmed and suspected threats infecting systems on a daily basis. High volume counts usually represent a popular threat but may or may not have infected a large number of systems. High detection count threats could lay dormant and have a low volume count. Criteria for Volume Count is relative to a daily detection count.

Luhe.Morphex is known to be a malicious Morphex package that belongs to the Trojan family of Luhe.Morphex and is categorized as malware. In general, the Morphex packer is usually used for packing malware and is used only very occasionally for legitimate software programs. The Morphex packer contains the certain features including execution flow interference, encryption and injection. The first and the last features makes the Morphex packer more suspicious than typical packers, and it's also the reason to give a particular detection name for it, specifically Luhe.Morphex. It's unclear, whether the injection part is incorporated as intended behavior in Luhe.Morphex, or if it's just a component of the payload of the unpacked file. However, numerous Morphex samples that have injection behavior have been noticed. Also, this type of injection is very similar to the DLL component of Duqu. Luhe.Morphex creates a process using a normal system file, and then injects a code to that memory and covers the entry point of the target process.
