Patent attributes
Apparatus and methods describe herein, for example, a process that can include receiving a potentially malicious file, and dividing the potentially malicious file into a set of byte windows. The process can include calculating at least one attribute associated with each byte window from the set of byte windows for the potentially malicious file. In such an instance, the at least one attribute is not dependent on an order of bytes in the potentially malicious file. The process can further include identifying a probability that the potentially malicious file is malicious, based at least in part on the at least one attribute and a trained threat model.
