Abstract
A system for detecting whether a file including content is associated with a cyber-attack is described. The content may include an executable file for example. The system includes an intelligence-driven analysis subsystem and a computation analysis subsystem. The intelligence-driven analysis subsystem is configured to (i) receive the file, (ii) inspect and compute features of the file for indicators associated with a cyber-attack, and (iii) produce a first output representing the detected indicators. The computational analysis subsystem includes an artificial neural network to (i) receive a network input being a first representation of at least one section of binary code from the file as input, and (ii) process the first representation of the section to produce a second output. The first output and the second output are used in determination a classification assigned to the file.
