Abstract

A computer-implemented method for efficiently allocating resources for behavioral analysis may include (1) determining a file type of a first file subject to behavioral analysis, (2) loading the first file within an environment for behavioral analysis to observe at least one behavior within the environment attributable to the first file, (3) observing a malicious behavior within the environment and attributing the malicious behavior to the first file, (4) determining a timing of the malicious behavior after loading the first file within the environment, and (5) limiting an amount of time dedicated to analyzing a second file within the environment based at least in part on the timing of the malicious behavior after loading the first file within the environment and due to the second file being of the same file type as the first file. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
