Abstract
One aspect of the present disclosure provides a computer-implemented method of automatically securing a computer system or network against a suspect binary file (SBF) by, in response to detection of the SBF, initiating an automatic defence strategy. The automatic defence strategy includes a first action known to mitigate a known threat posed by a known malicious binary file (KMBF); and a further action predicted to mitigate a predicted threat posed by a discrepant function present in the SBF but not the KMBF. Further aspects of the present disclosure relate to corresponding data processing systems, computer programs, computer-readable data carriers and data carrier signals.
