摘要

En 中文
This paper presents APILI, an innovative approach to behavior-based malware analysis that utilizes deep learning to locate the API calls corresponding to discovered malware techniques in dynamic execution traces. APILI defines multiple attentions between API calls, resources, and techniques, incorporating MITRE ATT&CK framework, adversary tactics, techniques and procedures, through a neural network. We employ fine-tuned BERT for arguments/resources embedding, SVD for technique representation, and several design enhancements, including layer structure and noise addition, to improve the locating performance. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt to locate low-level API calls that correspond to high-level malicious behaviors (that is, techniques). Our evaluation demonstrates that APILI outperforms other traditional and machine learning techniques in both technique discovery and API locating. These results indicate the promising performance of APILI, thus allowing it to reduce the analysis workload.
