Abstract: In some embodiments, a method includes processing at least a portion of a received file into a first set of fragments and analyzing each fragment from the first set of fragments using a machine learning model to identify within each fragment first information potentially relevant to whether the file is malicious. The method includes forming a second set of fragments by combining adjacent fragments from the first set of fragments and analyzing each fragment from the second set of fragments using the machine learning model to identify second information potentially relevant to whether the file is malicious. The method includes identifying the file as malicious based on the first information within at least one fragment from the first set of fragments and the second information within at least one fragment from the second set of fragments. The method includes performing a remedial action based on identifying the file as malicious.
