Abstract
A system for protecting computers against remote malware downloads includes a malware download detection system and participating client computers that provide download event information to the malware download detection system. A download event information identifies a file, a network address (e.g., uniform resource locator) from which the file was downloaded, and an identifier of the client computer that downloaded the file. The malware download detection system uses the download event information to build and update a tripartite download graph, and uses the download graph to train one or more classifiers. The malware download detection system consults the one or more classifiers to classify a download event. The download event is classified as malicious if either the file or the network address is classified as malicious.
