A Survey on ML Techniques for Multi-Platform Malware Detection: Securing PC, Mobile Devices, IoT, and Cloud Environments
Malware has emerged as a significant threat to end-users, businesses, and governments, resulting in financial losses of billions of dollars. Cybercriminals have found malware to be a lucrative business because of its evolving capabilities and ability to target diverse platforms such as PCs, mobile devices, IoT, and cloud platforms. While previous studies have explored single platform-based malware detection, no existing research has comprehensively reviewed malware detection across diverse platforms using machine learning (ML) techniques. With the rise of malware on PC or laptop devices, mobile devices and IoT systems are now being targeted, posing a significant threat to cloud environments. Therefore, a platform-based understanding of malware detection and defense mechanisms is essential for countering this evolving threat. To fill this gap and motivate further research, we present an extensive review of malware detection using ML techniques with respect to PCs, mobile devices, IoT, and cloud platforms. This paper begins with an overview of malware, including its definition, prominent types, analysis, and features. It presents a comprehensive review of machine learning-based malware detection from the recent literature, including journal articles, conference proceedings, and online resources published since 2017. This study also offers insights into the current challenges and outlines future directions for developing adaptable cross-platform malware detection techniques. This study is crucial for understanding the evolving threat landscape and for developing robust detection strategies.

Review of Hybrid Analysis Technique for Malware Detection
Malware is a problem spread out worldwide. Current techniques to analyze these malware are static analysis technique and dynamic analysis technique. Later, the two analysis technique is combined into a technique called hybrid analysis technique. This paper discusses on the current analysis technique and introduces a new approach towards the hybrid analysis technique by introducing memory analysis technique into it. The expected outcome of producing memory analysis technique in hybrid analysis technique will be discussed in the latter part of this paper.

Malware Detection Issues, Challenges, and Future Directions: A Survey
The evolution of recent malicious software with the rising use of digital services has increased the probability of corrupting data, stealing information, or other cybercrimes by malware attacks. Therefore, malicious software must be detected before it impacts a large number of computers. Recently, many malware detection solutions have been proposed by researchers. However, many challenges limit these solutions to effectively detecting several types of malware, especially zero-day attacks due to obfuscation and evasion techniques, as well as the diversity of malicious behavior caused by the rapid rate of new malware and malware variants being produced every day. Several review papers have explored the issues and challenges of malware detection from various viewpoints. However, there is a lack of a deep review article that associates each analysis and detection approach with the data type. Such an association is imperative for the research community as it helps to determine the suitable mitigation approach. In addition, the current survey articles stopped at a generic detection approach taxonomy. Moreover, some review papers presented the feature extraction methods as static, dynamic, and hybrid based on the utilized analysis approach and neglected the feature representation methods taxonomy, which is considered essential in developing the malware detection model. This survey bridges the gap by providing a comprehensive state-of-the-art review of malware detection model research. This survey introduces a feature representation taxonomy in addition to the deeper taxonomy of malware analysis and detection approaches and links each approach with the most commonly used data types. The feature extraction method is introduced according to the techniques used instead of the analysis approach. The survey ends with a discussion of the challenges and future research directions.

Enhancing Cyber-Resilience for Small and Medium-Sized Organizations with Prescriptive Malware Analysis, Detection and Response
In this study, the methodology of cyber-resilience in small and medium-sized organizations (SMEs) is investigated, and a comprehensive solution utilizing prescriptive malware analysis, detection and response using open-source solutions is proposed for detecting new emerging threats. By leveraging open-source solutions and software, a system specifically designed for SMEs with up to 250 employees is developed, focusing on the detection of new threats. Through extensive testing and validation, as well as efficient algorithms and techniques for anomaly detection, safety, and security, the effectiveness of the approach in enhancing SMEs’ cyber-defense capabilities and bolstering their overall cyber-resilience is demonstrated. The findings highlight the practicality and scalability of utilizing open-source resources to address the unique cybersecurity challenges faced by SMEs. The proposed system combines advanced malware analysis techniques with real-time threat intelligence feeds to identify and analyze malicious activities within SME networks. By employing machine-learning algorithms and behavior-based analysis, the system can effectively detect and classify sophisticated malware strains, including those previously unseen. To evaluate the system’s effectiveness, extensive testing and validation were conducted using real-world datasets and scenarios. The results demonstrate significant improvements in malware detection rates, with the system successfully identifying emerging threats that traditional security measures often miss. The proposed system represents a practical and scalable solution using containerized applications that can be readily deployed by SMEs seeking to enhance their cyber-defense capabilities.
