To Incorporate Sequential Dynamic Features in Malware Detection Engines (original) (raw)

Abstract Currently, signature-based detection is a widely used method within commercial antivirus. Although this method is still used by the most commercial antivirus softwares and is capable of detecting specific malwares quickly, it fails to detect new malwares. Therefore, antivirus engines are not limited to static signature based detection, their intelligent detection subsystem can detect unknown malwares more accurate than before. It utilizes an analyzer to extract appropriate features from executable files.
