    Abstract

    For a long time, malware has posed a significant risk to computer system security. The effectiveness of conventional detection techniques based on static and dynamic analysis is restricted due to the quick advancement of anti-detection technologies. In recent years, AI-based malware detection has increasingly been employed to combat malware due to its improved predictive ability. Unfortunately, because malware may be so diverse, it can be challenging to extract features from it, which makes using AI for malware detection ineffective. A malware classifier based on an Improved Salp Swarm optimization for feature selection and a Boosted tree with Conditional Quantile Estimation (ISSO-BCQE) is developed to adapt different malware properties to solve the problem. Specifically, the malware code is extracted, and the feature sequence is generated into a boosting tree where the feature map of the node is extracted using BCQE, where a boosting network is used to design a classifier and the method's performance is finally analyzed and compared. The results show that our model works better than other approaches regarding FPR and accuracy. It also shows that the method beats current methods with the highest accuracy of 99.6% in most detecting circumstances. It is also stable in handling malware growth and evolution.
