- abstract = "Malware is any software aiming to disrupt computer operation. Malware is also used to gather sensitive information or gain access to private computer systems. This is widely seen as one of the major threats to computer systems nowadays. Traditionally, anti-malware software is based on a signature detection system which keeps updating from the Internet malware database and thus keeping track of known malwares. While this method may be very accurate to detect previously known malwares, it is unable to detect unknown malicious codes. Recently, several machine learning methods have been used for malware detection, achieving remarkable success. In this paper, we propose a method in this strand by using Genetic Programming for detecting malwares. The experiments were conducted with the malwares collected from an updated malware database on the Internet and the results show that Genetic Programming, compared to some other well-known machine learning methods, can produce the best results on both balanced and imbalanced datasets.",
