Abstract
Detecting malware includes monitoring an event stream for an executable program, where the event stream includes a plurality of events such as API call events. A first plurality of hash values is determined for the event stream. In response to an occurrence of a trigger event in the event stream, the first plurality of hash values for the event stream can be compared with a second plurality of hash values that represents an event stream for a known malware executable. A determination can be made if a behavior represented by the first plurality of hash values is a permitted behavior based on the comparison.
