Existing antivirus products employ diverse types of techniques to detect malware or any
suspicious activities. The majority of such techniques rely on signature-based detection …

The current rise in malicious attacks shows that existing security systems are bypassed by
malicious files. Similarity hashing has been adopted for sample triaging in malware analysis …

With the development of malicious code engineering, new malware samples carry variability
and polymorphism, which makes the malware variants show an increasingly growing trend …

Static malware analysis is used to analyze executable files without executing the code to
determine whether a file is malicious or not. Data analytic and machine learning techniques …

A method comprises obtaining at least a first software module not classified as benign or
potentially malicious, extracting a set of features associated with the first software module …

The continuing fight against intentionally malicious software has, to date, favoured the
proliferators of malware. Signature detection methods are growingly impotent against rapidly …

Fuzzy hashing is a known technique that has been adopted to speed up malware analysis
processes. However, Hashing has not been fully implemented for malware detection …

A method comprises obtaining at least a first software module not classified as benign or
potentially malicious, extracting a set of features associated with the first software module …

With technological progress, the risk factor resulting from malware is increasing dramatically.
In this paper, we present the most prominent techniques and tools used in malware …

The advent of sophisticated IT software tools has enabled attackers with the necessary
capacity to develop dangerous metamorphic or polymorphic malware. And because of the …
