Abstract
The system call rates associated with system calls made by applications or processes operating in a user space are determined and tracked. A malware detection engine, hidden from the user space and operating in the kernel space, is configured to identify anomalous system call rates. A malware process can be identified based on its anomalous system call rate. Once the malware process is identified, protection operations can be performed in the computing system.
