Malware Discovery using Lebahnet Technology

Abstract:

Recent trends indicate that the cyber-crimes caused by the malware is increasing as these malicious tools are authored to spread through multiple platform and affecting the millions of users. In order to explore new attack and exploitation trends, virtual honeypot is used to simulate the virtual computer systems at the network level. This paper presents the Lebahnet technology, an improved version of virtual honeypots which consists of simulated the networking stack of different operating systems, data analytics and visualisation platform and also the sandboxing technology to examine the code samples behaviour. This paper also discusses the Lebahnet architecture and shows how the Lebahnet framework helps to explore new attack trends and provide insight for early warning mechanism.
