Research Projects
I'm currently working on adversarial machine learning for Malware detectors. In order to evade very accurate Malware detectors, attackers can make changes on test samples using different Adversarial Sample Generation (ASG) approaches. One of the main challenges for an ASG approach is to maintain the behavior of the Malware and its executability. Some related works have contributed to this topic, however, it is still a relatively fresh field with much room for research and additional findings.
