  • Patent number: 11947670
    Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for malicious software detection based on API trust. In an example, a set of software instructions executed by a computing device may call an API. A hook may be generated on the API, such that a threat processor may receive an indication when the API is called. Accordingly, the threat processor may generate a trust metric based on the execution of the set of software instructions, which may be used to determine whether the set of software instructions poses a potential threat. For example, one or more call stack frames may be evaluated to determine whether a return address is preceded by a call instruction, whether the return address is associated with a set of software instructions or memory associated with a set of software instructions, and/or whether the set of software instructions satisfies a variety of security criteria.
