For the purpose of reproducing a call stack accurately without restricting the range of application, a stack scanner extracts, from a stack area of a thread whose call stack is to be acquired in a memory space of an application process, possible return addresses that are addresses in a feasible region in the memory space each representing a command right after a function call command. A program analyzer analyzes a control flow representing a flow of control configured by a branch in a function that is called by the function call command right before the command represented by each of the possible return addresses and, when there is a route reaching a command currently being executed in the control flow, determines that the possible return address is a return address and, when there is not the route, determines that the possible return address is not a return address.

A call stack acquisition device reproduces, from a memory dump, a memory space of a process to which a thread as a production target of a call stack belongs. Then, the call stack acquisition device acquires execution context of the thread by acquiring, from a virtual memory space, register information of the thread, which is stored in a memory by an OS. In addition, the call stack acquisition device acquires a current stack position and a currently executed function from the acquired execution context. Thereafter, the call stack acquisition device acquires the call stack by tracing return addresses of a series of functions as callers of the currently executed function on the stack from metadata of an execution file of the process including the thread.

A command server identification device adds a tag to data received by malware upon execution of the malware, the tag capable of uniquely identifying identification information for a transmission source of the data, and tracks propagation of the data added with the tag. The command server identification device acquires a tag of data referenced by a branch instruction executed by the malware, among the tracked data. The command server identification device analyzes information on an instruction of a branch destination not executed by the malware after the branch instruction. Then, the command server identification device identifies identification information of a command server for issuing a command to the malware from the identification information of the transmission source corresponding to the acquired tag, based on the result of analysis.

An identifying device monitors malware to be analyzed and acquires, as log data, the malware, download data downloaded from a communication destination, and a relation of data transfer performed with the malware or the communication destination of the download data. Then, the identifying device creates, by using the acquired log data, a dependency relation graph that is a digraph in which the malware, download data, and communication destination are set as nodes and a dependency relation of each node is set as an edge. Then, the identifying device detects a malicious node by collating the respective nodes of the created dependency relation graph with the known maliciousness information, and traces an edge in a direction from a terminal point to a start point while setting the malicious node as a base point, and then identifies the traced node as a new malicious node.

A virtual machine includes a shadow memory, a shadow disk, and a virtual NIC. A virtual machine includes a guest OS. The shadow memory and the shadow disk each store therein pieces of data and pieces of tag information assigned to the pieces of data, so as to be kept in correspondence with one another. When malware transmits data, the virtual NIC generates the transmission information containing the transmitted data and tag information assigned to the transmitted data and further transmits the generated transmission information to the virtual machine. The guest OS extracts the tag information from the received transmission information. Further, the guest OS determines a transfer destination of the transmission information on the basis of the extracted tag information and further transfers the transmission information to the determined transfer destination.
