Abstract

A computer-implemented method for performing privilege flow analysis is presented. The computer-implemented method includes monitoring at least one program operating system (OS) event handled by a program, generating a privilege flow graph, determining an inferred program behavior context, and generating, based on a combination of the privilege flow graph and the inferred program behavior context, an inferred behavior context-aware privilege flow graph to distinguish different roles of processes and/or threads within the program.
