System and Method For Detecting Unknown Malicious Code By Analyzing Kernel Based System Actions

Abstract

There is provided a system and method for detecting unknown malicious code by analyzing kernel based system actions. More particularly, the system and method provides an advantage of actively countering unknown malicious code or viruses by monitoring kernel based system events in real time, organizing action data based on the collected event data, determining whether the action data corresponds to predetermined malicious actions, backtracking a subject of a malicious action when the action data is determined to correspond to the malicious action, and processing the malicious action.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
