Zhang, Dongxue, Zheng, Yang, Wen, Yu, Xu, Yujue, Wang, Jingchuo, Yu, Yang, Meng, Dan.  2018.  Role-based Log Analysis Applying Deep Learning for Insider Threat Detection. Proceedings of the 1st Workshop on Security-Oriented Designs of Computer Architectures and Processors. :18–20.
Insider threats have shown their great destructive power in information security and financial stability and have received widespread attention from governments and organizations. Traditional intrusion detection systems fail to be effective in insider attacks due to the lack of extensive knowledge for insider behavior patterns. Instead, a more sophisticated method is required to have a deeper understanding for activities that insiders communicate with the information system. In this paper, we design a classifier, a neural network model utilizing Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) to model user log as a natural language sequence and achieve role-based classification. LSTM Model can learn behavior patterns of different users by automatically extracting feature and detect anomalies when log patterns deviate from the trained model. To illustrate the effective of classification model, we design two experiments based on cmu dataset. Experimental evaluations have shown that our model can successfully distinguish different behavior pattern and detect malicious behavior.

This paper proposes a deep learning based method for efficient malware classification. Specially, we convert the malware classification problem into the image classification problem, which can be addressed through leveraging convolutional neural networks (CNNs). For many malware families, the images belonging to the same family have similar contours and textures, so we convert the Binary files of malware samples to uncompressed gray-scale images which possess complete information of the original malware without artificial feature extraction. We then design classifier based on Tensorflow framework of Google by combining the deep learning (DL) and malware detection technology. Experimental results show that the uncompressed gray-scale images of the malware are relatively easy to distinguish and the CNN based classifier can achieve a high success rate of 98.2%
