    Malware

    • Malware is software that gets into the system


    without user consent to steal the user’s private and
    confidential data, including bank details and
    passwords. They also generate annoying pop-up ads
    and change system settings.
    • Type of malware-Trojan
    horse ,virus,adware,bots,bugs,rootkits,spyware.
    Malware detection

    • Malware detector-malware detection is the process


    of scanning the computer and files to detect
    malware.It is effective at detecting malware because
    it involves multiple tools and approaches.It’s not a
    one way process,It’s actually quite complex.
    • Malware detection method
    Malware attack and how to prevent
    them
    1.Viruses
    A Virus is a malicious executable code attached to another executable file
    Viruses require human intervention to propagate
    Once user download the malisious code onto their devices-often delivered via
    malicious advertisements or phising emails the virus spreads throughout their
    system
    Viruses can modify computer functions and application;copy,delete and exfiltrate
    data.
    2.Adware
    It is capable of downloading or displaying advertisement to the device user.
    Not steal any data from the system but it forcing users to see ads.
    3.Ransomware
    Ransomware lock and encrypts files or devices and forces victims to pay a ransome
    in exchange for reentry.while ransomware and malware are often used
    synonymously,ransomware is a specific form of malware.
    4.Rootkits
    A rootkits is malicious software that enables threat actors to remotely access and
    control a device.
    Rootkits faclitate the spread of other types of malware,including
    ransomware,viruses and keyloggers.
    Rootkits often go undetected,because once inside a device,they can deactivate
    antimalware and antivirus software.
    Rootkits typically enter devices and systems through phishing emails and malicious
    attachments.
    5.Spyware
    Spyware is malware that downloads onto a device without the user’s knowledge.
    It steals user’s data to sell to advertisers and external user’s.
    Spyware can track credentials and obtain bank details and other sensitive data.
    It infects devices through malicious apps,links,websites and email attachments.
    how to prevent them
    • Strong cyber hygiene is the best defense against malware attacks.The
    premise of cyber hygiene is similar to that of personal hygiene.If an
    organization maintain a high level of health(security),it avoid getting
    sick(attacked).
    • Cyber hygiene practices that prevent malware attacks include the following:
    • Follow email security best practices.
    • Deploy email security gateways.
    • Avoid clicking links and downloading attachments.
    • Implement strong access control.
    • Require multifactor authentication.
    • Use the principle of least privilege.
    • Adopt a zero trust security stategy.
    • Monitor for abnormal or suspicious activity.
    Malware symptoms

    • Computers,they all can produce similar symptoms.Computers that are


    infected with malware can exhibit any of the following symptoms:
    • Increased CPU usage
    • Slow computer or web browser speeds
    • Problems connecting to networks
    • Freezing or crashing
    • Modified or delete filies
    • Appearance of strange files,programs,or desktop icons
    • Programs running,turning off,or reconfiguring themselves(malware will
    often reconfigure or turn off antivirus and firewall programs)
    • Strange computer behavior
    • Emails/messages being sent automatically and without user’s knowledge(a
    friend receives a strange email from you that you did not send)
    MACHINE LEARNING
    • Machine learning is a method of data analysis
    that automates analytical model building. It is a
    branch of artificial intelligence based on the
    idea that systems can learn from data, identify
    patterns and make decisions with minimal
    human intervention.
    • Types of machine learning
     Supervised learning
     Unsupervised learning
     Reinforcement learning
    PROPOSED SOLUTION WITH ALGORITHMS

    • Machine learning can easily identify the


    malware in the data and datasets
    • Different types of machine learning algorithms
    are applied such as :
     DECISION TREE
     SVM
     Random forest
     XG boost
    EXISTING SYSTEMS
    • Malware detection by using window api sequence and
    machine learning
    • Detecting unknown malicious code by applying
    classification techniques on oppose patterns
    • Detecting scareware by mining variable length
    instructions sequence
    • Accurate adware detection using oppose sequence
    extraction
    • Detection of spyware by mining executable files
    • Detection by using neural networks on the malware
    CONCLUSION
    • A Malware is critical threat to user computer system in
    terms of stealing confidential information or disabling
    security.
    • This project present some of the existing machine
    learning algorithms directly applied on the data or
    datasets of malware
    • It explains the how the algorithms will play a role in
    detecting malware wit high accuracy and predictions
    • We are also using data science and data mining
    techniques to overcome the drawbacks of existing
    system
