Abstract | In this study, we have used the Image Similarity technique to detect the unknown or new type of malware using CNN ap- proach. CNN was investigated and tested with three types of datasets i.e. one from Vision Research Lab, which contains 9458 gray-scale images that have been extracted from the same number of malware samples that come from 25 differ- ent malware families, and second was benign dataset which contained 3000 different kinds of benign software. Benign dataset and dataset vision research lab were initially exe- cutable files which were converted in to binary code and then converted in to image files. We obtained a testing ac- curacy of 98% on Vision Research dataset. |
