Abstract

Detecting malware attacks is described herein. A computer-implemented method may include receiving, via a processor, events from a plurality of activity monitors. The method also include extracting, via the processor, a plurality of behavioral features from the received events. The method may further include detecting, via the processor, a malware attack based on the extracted behavioral features using a malware identification model trained on private data and public data. The method may also include executing, via the processor, an ad hoc protection improvement based on the detected malware attack.
