The State-of-the-Art in AI-Based Malware Detection Techniques: A Review
Not on the map. Why?
Abstract (arXiv)
Artificial Intelligence techniques have evolved rapidly in recent years, revolutionising the approaches used to fight against cybercriminals. But as the cyber security field has progressed, so has malware development, making it an economic imperative to strengthen businesses' defensive capability against malware attacks. This review aims to outline the state-of-the-art AI techniques used in malware detection and prevention, providing an in-depth analysis of the latest studies in this field. The algorithms investigated consist of Shallow Learning, Deep Learning and Bio-Inspired Computing, applied to a variety of platforms, such as PC, cloud, Android and IoT. This survey also touches on the rapid adoption of AI by cybercriminals as a means to create ever more advanced malware and exploit the AI algorithms designed to defend against them.
