  • Publication number: 20240119153
    Abstract: A method may select, from a training data repository comprising a plurality of samples with known classifications, an initial training dataset comprising a second plurality of samples. A method may provide, as an input to a classification model, feature vectors associated with the initial training dataset and may train the classification model using the feature vectors. A method may determine a classification of each sample of a third plurality of samples using the classification model. A method may determine a difference between the determined and the known classification for each sample. A method may determine a selection weighting for each sample for based on the difference between the determined classification and the known classification. A method may select a subset from the from the third plurality of samples based on the determined selection weighting. A method may train the classification model using feature vectors associated with the subset.

  • Patent number: 11790079
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for enabling the automatic detection of executable code from a stream of bytes. In some embodiments, the stream of bytes can be sourced from the hidden areas of files that traditional malware detection solutions ignore. In some embodiments, a machine learning model is trained to detect whether a particular stream of bytes is executable code. Other embodiments described herein disclose systems and methods for automatic feature extraction using a neural network. Given a new file, the systems and methods may preprocess the code to be inputted into a trained neural network. The neural network may be used as a “feature generator” for a malware detection model. Other embodiments herein are directed to systems and methods for identifying, flagging, and/or detecting threat actors which attempt to obtain access to library functions independently.

  • Patent number: 11507663
    Abstract: There is provided a method for generating a representation for behavior similarity comparison by generating a program-level stateful model of one or more entities in a computer operating system operating on a computer system, the program-level stateful model having a data structure representing a state of a program; generating an updated representation of the program based on the program-level stateful model; searching for at least one other representation of another program-level stateful model similar to the updated representation of the program; and comparing the updated representation of the program to the at least one other representation of another program-level stateful model.
