Abstract: The use of browser context in detecting malware is disclosed. A client device requests content from a remote server. Data received by the client device from the remote server is transmitted to an external scanner for analysis by the external scanner. The external scanner is configured to use a browser executed in an instrumented virtual machine environment to analyze the data provided by the client device. The client device is configured to request the content from the remote server using a browser extension configured to retrieve data and provide the retrieved data to the external scanner without rendering the retrieved data.

Abstract: Execution of an application in an application-level sandbox is disclosed. A request to launch an application is received by an operating system executing on a device. A determination is made that a stored copy of the application should be executed within an application-level sandbox. The stored copy of the application is executed in the application-level sandbox.

Abstract: Techniques for providing an intelligent-interaction honeypot for IoT devices in accordance with some embodiments. In some embodiments, a system/process/computer program product for providing an intelligent-interaction honeypot for IoT devices includes receiving a request from an attacker sent to an IP address that is associated with a honeypot instance for Internet of Things (IoT) devices; determining a response to the request using a data store that stores a plurality of responses and associated IoT device information, wherein the plurality of responses and associated IoT device information is generated based on automated machine learning of active probing of physical IoT devices on the Internet; and sending the response from the honeypot instance for IoT devices to the attacker, wherein the attacker is unable to detect that the response is associated with an emulated IoT device.

Abstract: The technology disclosed herein enables the generation of malware traffic signatures by performing natural language processing on known malware traffic using a neural network. In a particular embodiment, a method provides generating sentences comprising first information obtained from a plurality of fields in each of a plurality of known malware data packets in a first malware family. The method further provides inputting the sentences into a first neural network for natural language processing of the sentences and generating one or more signatures for the first malware family from results of the natural language processing of the sentences.

Abstract: The use of browser context in detecting malware is disclosed. A Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is received from a user and at a client device. The URL is used to request, at the client device, and from a remote server, content. At least a portion of data received from the remote server is provided by the client device to an external scanner. The external scanner is configured to use a browser executed in an instrumented virtual machine environment to analyze the data provided by the client device. A maliciousness verdict is received from the external scanner.
