US Patent 11620383 Dynamic analysis techniques for applications

A sample is analyzed to determine a set of events that should be selected for performing by a dynamic analyzer executing the sample in an instrumented, emulated environment. In some cases, analyzing the sample includes extracting the sample's user interface layout into a tree hierarchy of user interface elements. The set of selected events is performed. In some cases, at least one emulator detection resistance action is performed. A maliciousness verdict is determined for the sample based at least in part on one or more responses taken by the sample in response to the set of selected events being performed by the dynamic analyzer.
