| Abstract |
With the gradual advancement of smart city construction, various information systems have been widely used in smart cities. In order to obtain huge economic benefits, criminals frequently invade the information system, which leads to the increase of malware. Malware attacks not only seriously infringe on the legitimate rights and interests of users, but also cause huge economic losses. Signature-based malware detection algorithms can only detect known malware, and are susceptible to evasion techniques such as binary obfuscation. Behavior-based malware detection methods can solve this problem well. Although there are some malware behavior analysis works, they may ignore semantic information in the malware API call sequence. In this paper, we design a joint framework based on local and global features for malware detection to solve the problem of network security of smart cities, called LGMal, which combines the stacked convolutional neural network and graph convolutional networks. Specially, the stacked convolutional neural network is used to learn API call sequence information to capture local semantic features and the graph convolutional networks is used to learn API call semantic graph structure information to capture global semantic features. Experiments on Alibaba Cloud Security Malware Detection datasets show that the joint framework gets better results. The experimental results show that the precision is 87.76%, the recall is 88.08%, and the F1-measure is 87.79%. We hope this paper can provide a useful way for malware detection and protect the network security of smart city. |
