Abstract
A computerized method for detecting malware associated with an object. The method includes operations of analyzing an object to obtain a first set of attributes, where the first set of attributes include one or more characteristics associated with the object. Furthermore, the object is processed with a virtual machine to obtain a second set of attributes. The second set of attributes corresponds to one or more monitored behaviors of the virtual machine during processing of the object. Thereafter, a threat index is determined based, at least in part, on a combination of at least one attribute of the first set of attributes and at least one attribute of the second set of attributes. The threat index represents a probability of maliciousness associated with the object.
