Our findings reveal that the chunk-based smoothing classifiers exhibit greater resilience against adversarial malware examples generated with state-of-the-are evasion attacks, outperforming a non-smoothed classifier and a randomized smoothing-based classifier by a great margin.

While traditional machine learning methods for malware detection largely depend on hand-designed features, which are based on experts’ knowledge of the domain, end-to-end learning approaches take the raw executable as input, and try to learn a set of descriptive features from it.

Novel approaches in the literature treat an executable as a sequence of bytes or as a sequence of assembly language instructions.

This means that malicious files belonging to the same family, with the same malicious behavior, are constantly modified or obfuscated using several techniques, in such a way that they look like different files.

Motivated by the visual similarity between streams of entropy of malicious software belonging to the same family, we propose a file agnostic deep learning approach for categorization of malware.
