Abstract

A device may receive a file that has been downloaded, or is to be downloaded, to a user device, and that is to be subject to a malware detection procedure. The device may obtain, based on one or more file identification properties of the file, metadata identifying user interactions associated with the file. The metadata may include a first group of user interactions performed when the file was accessed on the user device or a second group of user interactions performed when the file was accessed on one or more other user devices. The device may test the file in a sandbox environment to obtain a result by performing the user interactions identified by the metadata and executing the malware detection procedure to determine whether the file is malware. The device may provide a notification to cause the user device to perform actions when the file is malware.
