9Conclusions and Future Directions
In this chapter, we discuss about the trends in emerging malware, effectiveness of the detection mechanisms described in Chapter 4 to Chapter 8 and the possible research directions to overcome the limitations of these malware detection mechanisms. The suggested extensions of the detection mechanisms can detect and prevent most of the malware attacks.
In Chapter 4, we showed that malicious behavior can be accurately detected by combining API calls, permissions and system calls. However, an attacker can evade the static malware classifiers by using adversarial techniques. In such cases, static and hybrid analysis mechanisms are not very useful. However, it is very hard for an attacker ...
