Abstract
A method includes receiving one or more n-gram vectors for a file as input to a file classifier, where the one or more n-gram vectors indicate occurrences of groups of entropy indicators in a sequence of entropy indicators representing the file. The method also includes generating, based on the one or more n-gram vectors, output including classification data associated with the file, the classification data indicating whether the file includes malware.
