Abstract
The malicious code recognition method on traditional dynamic stain analysis technology has many problems such as huge number of malicious code behavior dependency graphs (MBDG) and long time of matching process.According to the common characteristics of each malicious code family, the behavior dependency graph is represented by some common sub graph parts. Therefore, this paper proposes a malicious code behavior dependency graph mining method based on maximum frequent sub graphs. The method mines the largest frequent sub graphs which can represent the significant common features of the family from the malicious code family behavior dependency graph. The maximum frequent sub graph that is mined can represent the most significant common feature among the variants of this type of malicious code. The target behavior dependency graph just needs to be matched with the largest frequent sub graph after mining.Besides, the method reduces the number of behavior dependency graphs and improves the recognition efficiency without losing the characteristics of malicious code behavior. Compared with the traditional dynamic stain analysis method for malicious code recognition, when the minimum support is 0.045, the number of behavior dependency graphs decreases by 82%, the recognition efficiency increases by 81.7%, and the accuracy rate is 92.15%.
