We are happy to announce about the tool we developed as a team, on the Capstone Project at Israel Technion University's Cybersecurity Program.
I am delighted to share the advancements in our capstone project, which focuses on developing a tool that combines machine learning and malware analysis. Our specific aim is to target Portable Executable (PE) files. Our journey began with an exploration of analysis and we are now making significant progress in dynamic analysis.
What We Have Accomplished Far;
We conducted Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) to gain a deep understanding of the characteristics of our dataset.
We implemented knowledge based feature extraction methods to optimize our dataset for improved performance.
We evaluated machine learning models, such as Decision Trees, Random Forests and Artificial Neural Networks to determine their effectiveness in classifying malicious PEs.
We initiated analysis focused on API sequences and file activities which has provided us with a detailed understanding of PE behaviors.
Team Recognition;
This journey would not have been possible, without the efforts of our team. I would like to give recognition to ELSHAD GULIYEV as a leading team member, and the expert on the Information Technologies which has experience more than 20 years and also one of the greatest mentor I have ever known- Elza Gurbanova for their contributions and insights that have propelled our project forward. Additionally I express gratitude to our instructor- James Hickie for his guidance and supervision.
A Significant Milestone;
This project is not an accomplishment.This is our second achievement, in creating cybersecurity tools that incorporate machine learning this semester. The success we've had can be attributed to the collaboration, dedication and expertise of our team.
As we keep pushing boundaries and finding solutions in the field of cybersecurity, I appreciate the value of working together and integrating machine learning into this domain.
Stay tuned for updates, on our projects progress!
