A Malware Obfuscation AI Technique to Evade Antivirus Detection in Counter Forensic Domain

Detecting Malware Activities With MalpMiner: A Dynamic Analysis Approach

“…Such methods are powerful versus known samples, but they fail against modified/unknown specimens. Therefore, malware authors deploy evasion tactics like code obfuscation, encryption or packing to existing malware samples to avoid getting recognized by signaturebased systems [7]- [9]. Another approach uses heuristicbased algorithms; those algorithms use rules to overcome the previously mentioned limitation by searching for instructions that symbolize malicious intentions.…”
