Abstract
Automatic generation of a malware signature is disclosed. Code of a sample including packages and function names is parsed. Standard type packages and vendor type packages are filtered from the code of the sample to obtain main type packages. A signature using a fuzzy hash for the sample is generated based on the main type packages. A determination of whether the sample is malware is performed using the signature and a similarity score threshold.
