Malware Detection Using Dynamic Birthmarks

2019-01-06 · Swapna Vemparala, Fabio Di Troia, Corrado A. Visaggio, Thomas H. Austin, Mark Stamp

In this paper, we explore the effectiveness of dynamic analysis techniques for identifying malware, using Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) and Profile Hidden Markov Models (PHMMs), both trained on sequences of API calls. We contrast our results to static analysis using HMMs trained on sequences of opcodes, and show that dynamic analysis achieves significantly stronger results in many cases. Furthermore, in contrasting our two dynamic analysis techniques, we find that using PHMMs consistently outperforms our analysis based on HMMs.
