Abstract
Examples of malware detection are provided. In an example, to detect malwares, a first subset of features may be determined from a binary file. The binary file may be analyzed based on machine learning model to determine a category of malware, which is based on a degree of detectability of the category. A first category may have a lower detectability of malware in the binary file and a second category may have a higher detectability than the first. A model may then be created to analyze the first category of malware and an analysis of the binary may be performed. The analysis may be performed using the model. Thereafter, a confidence score may be generated for the binary file. The confidence score may be indicative of certainty of determining whether the binary file is goodware or includes malware. Malware may be detected upon the confidence score exceeding a threshold value.
