Abstract
Provided herein are systems and methods for determining a likelihood that an executable comprises malware. A learning engine may determine a plurality of attributes of an executable identified in a computing environment, and a corresponding weight to assign to each of the plurality of attributes. Each of the plurality of attributes may be indicative of a level of risk for the computing environment. The learning engine may generate, according to the determined plurality of attributes and the corresponding weights, one or more scores indicative of a likelihood that the executable comprises malware. A rule engine may perform an action to manage operation of the executable, according to the generated one or more scores.
