Malware detection models based on deep learning have been widely used, but recent research shows that deep learning models are vulnerable to adversarial attacks. Adversarial attacks are to deceive the deep learning model by generating…
Constructing lineages of malware is an important cyber-defense task. Performing this task is difficult, however, due to the amount of malware data and obfuscation techniques by the authors. In this work, we formulate the lineage task as a…
The present thesis addresses the topic of denial of service capabilities detection at malware binary level, with the aim of designing a framework that integrate results from different binary analysis methods and decide on the DDoS…
Malware detection on binary executables provides a high availability to even binaries which are not disassembled or decompiled. However, a binary-level approach could cause ambiguity problems. In this paper, we propose a new feature…
This study examines machine learning techniques like Decision Trees, Support Vector Machines, Logistic Regression, Neural Networks, and ensemble methods to detect Android malware. The study evaluates these models on a dataset of Android…
Malwares are continuously growing in sophistication and numbers. Over the last decade, remarkable progress has been achieved in anti-malware mechanisms. However, several pressing issues (e.g., unknown malware samples detection) still need…
Malware continues to evolve rapidly, and more than 450,000 new samples are captured every day, which makes manual malware analysis impractical. However, existing deep learning detection models need manual feature engineering or require high…
Numerous open-source and commercial malware detectors are available. However, their efficacy is threatened by new adversarial attacks, whereby malware attempts to evade detection, e.g., by performing feature-space manipulation. In this…
