Abstract
A method includes accessing information identifying multiple files and identifying classification data for the multiple files, where the classification data indicates, for a particular file of the multiple files, whether the particular file includes malware. The method also includes generating n-gram vectors for the multiple files by, for each file, generating an n-gram vector indicating occurrences of character pairs in printable characters representing the file. The method further includes generating and storing a file classifier using the n-gram vectors and the classification data as supervised training data.
