US Patent 11025649 Systems and methods for malware classification

The disclosed computer-implemented method for malware classification may include receiving dynamic analysis traces that include event descriptions regarding malware programs, and labels regarding classes of malware programs; performing a first mapping of the event descriptions to a first set of vector representations, wherein order of the events is not taken into account by the first mapping; performing a second mapping of the event descriptions to a second set of vector representations, wherein order of the events is taken into account by the second mapping; combining the first set of vector representations and the second set of vector representations into a combined set of vector representations; inputting the combined set of vector representations, along with the labels, into an autoencoder; and training the autoencoder to generate a feature space representation that correlates identified features with classes of malware. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
