The paper introduces the BioSentinel Neural Network (BSNN), a novel hybrid deep learning model designed to enhance malware detection, particularly focusing on zero-day threats. The BSNN model integrates diverse neural network architectures, leveraging Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) for feature extraction and Transformers for sequential data analysis. It demonstrates significant improvements in accuracy (93.16%), precision (90.89%), recall (88.19%), and F1-score (90.45%) over traditional methods. The model exhibits a high detection rate of 88% for zero-day malware from 1000 samples tested and shows computational efficiency with an average inference time of 30 milliseconds. This research addresses critical gaps in current malware detection approaches, highlighting the potential of hybrid deep learning techniques in the cybersecurity domain.
