John Park (HP)
Early this year, Microsoft Malware Protection Center and Microsoft Azure Machine Learning Group released a large corpus of malware data to a public competition. Since this was an interesting competition, the results of which could benefit the whole anti-malware industry, HP Security Research decided to participate. We would like to present the difficulties of the challenge, and to describe the machine-learning techniques that work well and those that do not work well in malware classification.
