Abstract
Techniques for detecting malicious behavior of content or objects are described herein. According to one embodiment, a malicious content suspect is executed within a virtual machine that simulates a target operating environment associated with the malicious content suspect. A communication response object is received as a result of processing the malicious content suspect. A first behavior match result for a first sub-object of the communication response object is determined. A second behavior match result for a second sub-object of the communication response object is also determined. The first and second behavior match results are aggregated and a malicious behavior score is calculated according to the aggregated result from all matches. The malicious content suspect is classified according to the malicious behavior score.
