Abstract
Malware has received much attention in recent years. Antivirus software is widely used as a countermeasure against malware. However, some kinds of malware can evade detection by antivirus software, hence, a new detection method is required. In this paper, we propose a malware detection method that focuses on Anti-Debugging functions. An Anti-Debugging function is a method that prevents malware analysts from analyzing an application program (AP). The function can form part of benign as well as malicious APs. Our method focuses on a behavioral difference between benign and malicious APs and detects malware by comparing the two behavioral patterns. Evaluation results with malware confirmed our method to be capable of successfully detecting malware.
