Abstract
An apparatus for identifying related code variants may include processing circuitry configured to execute instructions for receiving query binary code, processing the query binary code to generate one or more query code fingerprints comprising compressed representations of respective functional components of the query binary code, comparing the one or more query code fingerprints to at least some reference code fingerprints stored in a database to determine a similarity measure between the one or more query code fingerprints and at least some of the reference code fingerprints, and preparing at least one report based on the similarity measure.
