Abstract
Methods apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture for IoT and PoS anti-malware are disclosed. An example method includes detecting a combination of function calls. Whether the combination of function calls is a forbidden combination of function calls for the device is detected based on a limited intended functionality of the device. The forbidden combination of function calls includes a first function call and a second function call. The first function call is allowed in isolation from the second function call. The second function call is allowed in isolation from the first function call. In response to determining that the combination of function calls is forbidden for the device, a responsive action is performed.
