  • Publication number: 20200162483
    Abstract: Examples of malware detection are provided. In an example, to detect malwares, a first subset of features may be determined from a binary file. The binary file may be analyzed based on machine learning model to determine a category of malware, which is based on a degree of detectability of the category. A first category may have a lower detectability of malware in the binary file and a second category may have a higher detectability than the first. A model may then be created to analyze the first category of malware and an analysis of the binary may be performed. The analysis may be performed using the model. Thereafter, a confidence score may be generated for the binary file. The confidence score may be indicative of certainty of determining whether the binary file is goodware or includes malware. Malware may be detected upon the confidence score exceeding a threshold value.

  • Publication number: 20200153803
    Abstract: A system includes circuitry for cryptographic data share controls for distributed ledger technology based data constructs. The system may support placement of compute data on to a distributed ledger technology based data construct. The compute data may have multiple layers of encryption to support permissions and coordination of processing operations for application to the compute data. The multiple layers of encryption may include a homomorphic layer to allow sharing of the compute data for processing by a compute party without divulging the content of the compute data with the compute party. While in the homomorphically encrypted form, the homomorphic compute data supports the application of processing operations while maintaining the secrecy of the underlying data.
