Abstract:
Cyber targeted attack has sophisticated attack techniques using malwares to exploit vulnerabilities in systems and external Command & Control (C&C) servers are continuously monitoring and extracting data off a specific target. Since this attacking process is working continuously and uses diverse malicious codes and attacking routes, it is considered to be difficult to detect in advance. The paper proposes an indirect analytical method based on the Testing Data Set (TDS) that includes various malware behaviors for detecting cyber attacks. Especially, the proposed TDS contains both network and host dataset by running recently collected malwares in a secure testbed environment for collecting specific behaviors of the malware infections and activations. Such a combination of the self-generated datasets provides a valuable information source for the malware behavior analysis.
