Abstract

Siber saldırılardaki artış internet ve bilişim teknolojileri kullanımını da tehdit etmeye başlamıştır. Bu durum, siber saldırılardan sorumlu kötü amaçlı yazılımları tespit etmenin önemini vurgulamaktadır. Günümüzde, kötü amaçlı yazılımları algılamak için makine öğrenmesi yöntemlerinin geliştirilmesi üzerine çalışmalar bulunmaktadır. Kötü amaçlı yazılım dedektörleri, kötü amaçlı yazılımlara karşı savunmada birincil araçlardır. Böyle bir dedektörün kalitesi, kullandığı tekniklerle belirlenir. Makine öğrenmesi, derin öğrenme ve statik ve dinamik analiz gibi zararlı yazılım analiz yöntemleri bu teknikler arasında yer almaktadır. Bu çalışma kötü amaçlı yazılım analizi ve sınıflandırma tekniklerini sunmaktadır. Kötü amaçlı yazılım tespiti için, K-En Yakın Komşular, Saf Bayes, Karar Ağaçları ve Rastgele Orman gibi iyi bilinen makine öğrenmesi algoritmaları kullanılmıştır. Çalışma, Karar Ağaçları sınıflandırma tekniği kullanımının %97,75 sınıflandırma ile en iyi doğruluğu ürettiğini, Saf Bayes'in ise %53 ile en düşük doğruluğu ürettiğini göstermektedir.

Abstract

The increase in cyber-attacks has also started to threaten the use of internet and information technologies. This situation emphasizes the importance of detecting malicious software that is responsible for cyber-attacks. Nowadays, there are studies on the development of machine learning methods for malicious software detection. Malicious software detectors are the primary tools in defense against malicious software. The quality of such a detector is determined by the techniques it uses. Malware analysis methods such as machine learning, deep learning, and static and dynamic analysis are among these techniques. This study presents malware analysis and classification techniques. For malware detection, well-known algorithms for machine learning including such K-Nearest Neighbors, Naive Bayes, Decision Trees, and Random Forest were used. The research shows that the use of Random Forest classification technique produces the best accuracy with 97.75% classification, while Naive Bayes produces the lowest accuracy of 53%.
