Explainable Deep Learning Models for Dynamic and Online Malware Classification

arXiv:2404.12473v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: In recent years, there has been a significant surge in malware attacks, necessitating more advanced preventive measures and remedial strategies. While several successful AI-based malware classification approaches exist categorized into static, dynamic, or online analysis, most successful AI models lack easily interpretable decisions and explanations for their processes. Our paper aims to delve into explainable malware classification across various execution environments (such as dynamic and online), thoroughly analyzing their respective strengths, weaknesses, and commonalities. To …
