Learning Fast and Slow: PROPEDEUTICA for Real-time Malware Detection

AIにより推定されたラベル
Abstract

Existing malware detectors on safety-critical devices have difficulties in runtime detection due to the performance overhead. In this paper, we introduce PROPEDEUTICA, a framework for efficient and effective real-time malware detection, leveraging the best of conventional machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) techniques. In PROPEDEUTICA, all software start execution are considered as benign and monitored by a conventional ML classifier for fast detection. If the software receives a borderline classification from the ML detector (e.g. the software is 50 malicious), the software will be transferred to a more accurate, yet performance demanding DL detector. To address spatial-temporal dynamics and software execution heterogeneity, we introduce a novel DL architecture (DEEPMALWARE) for PROPEDEUTICA with multi-stream inputs. We evaluated PROPEDEUTICA with 9,115 malware samples and 1,338 benign software from various categories for the Windows OS. With a borderline interval of [30 PROPEDEUTICA achieves an accuracy of 94.34 with 41.45 PROPEDEUTICA can detect malware within less than 0.1 seconds.
