Abstract:This study introduces an innovative approach to ransomware detection utilizing opcode analysis combined with Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). Focusing on the dynamic nature of modern ransomware threats, the research develops a method that leverages unsupervised learning to detect both known and novel ransomware variants. The study begins by examining the evolution of ransomware, from its initial focus on Windows-based systems to the current sophisticated attacks on various platforms. It then explores th… Show more
