arXiv:2606. 06570v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Malware detection remains largely reactive: machine learning models trained on known samples degrade as threats evolve.
arXiv:2606. 30819v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generative AI has emerged as a significant cybersecurity threat, with several recent attack campaigns leveraging LLMs to generate code for malicious purposes via scripting languages such as PowerShell.
arXiv:2509. 14335v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Automated malware classifiers achieve strong detection performance, but auditing requires more than flagging a sample: analysts must explain malicious behaviors and justify them with code evidence.
arXiv:2606. 20436v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Malware analysts often inspect compiled binaries through decompiled pseudo-C, when source code is unavailable.
arXiv:2607. 26634v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Organizational digitalization expands cybersecurity risks, making cybersecurity an increasingly important research area in Information Systems (IS).
arXiv:2606. 30572v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Malware classification remains a challenging problem due to its inherent heterogeneity, the presence of packed binaries, and the diverse distribution of malware families.
arXiv:2607. 24177v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Due to the lack of systematic evaluations, we are not yet able to determine which AI-based Windows malware detector to deploy in production, since existing evaluations (i) differ in terms of data used for both training and testing; (ii) do not consider temporal analysis to showcase whether models withstand the passage of time; (iii) avoid security evaluations with adversarial attacks that could highlight their brittleness against content-injection attacks; and (iv) neglect the computational requirements for deployment, risking slow inference on endpoints.
arXiv:2606. 19023v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The growing reliance on pre-trained Machine Learning (ML) models has introduced new attack surfaces.
The growing reliance on pre-trained Machine Learning (ML) models has introduced new attack surfaces. Recent vulnerabilities demonstrate that malicious behavior can be embedded within model artifacts, often bypassing existing defenses.
arXiv:2608. 02671v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Malware detection using Hardware Performance Counters (HPC) has emerged as a promising solution to improve the security of computing systems as a complement to antivirus software.
arXiv:2507. 18313v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Malware evolves rapidly, forcing machine learning-based detectors to be continuously updated.
Large Language Models (LLMs) and generative AI (GenAI) systems, such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, LLaMA, Copilot, Stable Diffusion by OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Stability AI, respectively, are revolutionizing cybersecurity, enabling both automated defense and sophisticated attacks. These technologies power real-time threat detection, phishing defense, secure code generation, and vulnerability exploitation at unprecedented scales.
arXiv:2606. 03523v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Early attribution of Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) activity can help defenders prioritise investigation, select countermeasures, and reduce the impact of an intrusion.
