Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A computer program includes a plurality of different types of computer program instructions. Prior to execution of the computer program, the computer the computer program instructions of each of the types. At a time during execution of the computer program, the computer counts the computer program instructions of each of the types. The computer, in response to determining that the count for one of the instruction types determined prior to execution of the computer program differs by at least an associated threshold value from the count for the same instruction type determined during execution, makes a record that the computer program has an indicia of maliciousness.
