Ratinder Kaur, Maninder Singh · International Journal of Information Technology and Computer Science · 2016
To understand completely the malicious intents of a zero-day malware there is really no automated way.There is no single best approach for malware analysis so it demands to combine existing static, dynamic and manual malware analysis techniques in a single unit.In this paper a hybrid real-time analysis and reporting system is presented.The proposed system integrates various malware analysis tools and utilities in a component-based architecture.The system automatically provides detail result about zero-day malware's behavior.The ultimate goal of this analysis and reporting is to gain a quick and brief understanding of the malicious activity performed by a zero-day malware while minimizing the time frame between the detection of zero-day attack and generation of a security solution.The results are paramount valuable for a malware analyst to perform zero-day malware detection and containment.
