MARS: An SDN-based malware analysis solution

Mechanisms to detect and analyze malicious software are essential to improve security systems. Current security mechanisms have limited success in detecting sophisticated malicious software. More than to evade analysis system, many malwares require specific conditions to activate their actions in the target system. The flexibility of Software-Defined Networking (SDN) provides an opportunity to develop a malware analysis architecture integrating different systems and networks profile configuration. In this paper we design an architecture specialized in malware analysis using SDN to dynamically reconfigure the network environment based on malware actions. As result, we demonstrate that our solution can trigger more malware's events than traditional solutions that do not consider sandbox surround environment as an important component in malware analysis.
