Abstract
Detecting sideloaded attack chains. The method includes obtaining first telemetry data for a particular instance of a shared library. The first telemetry data is obtained from a first remote client system as a result of the first remote client system identifying the shared library as a known target of sideloaded attack chains. The first telemetry data for the particular instance of the shared library is compared to other telemetry data for other instances of the shared library obtained from other remote client systems to determine a similarity score for the first telemetry data as compared to the other telemetry data. Based on the similarity score, sideloaded attack chain conclusion information about the particular instance of the shared library is sent to the first remote client system.
