How it works…

We start by importing all the MalGAN code that we will be using (Step 1). We must specify a few arguments (Step 2), to be explained now. The savePath parameter is the location into which the adversarial examples will be saved. The modelPath variable is the path to the pre-computed weights of MalConv. The logPath parameter is where data pertaining to the application of the Fast Gradient Signed Method (FGSM) to the sample is recorded. For example, a log file may appear as follows:

filename

original score

file length

pad length

loss

predict score

0778...b916

0.001140

235

23
