Detecting and Predicting the Unknown

A. The approach of Victimware¹⁴⁵ (which includes abnormal behavior of Malware such as crashes, hangs, resource leaks, CPU spikes) together with memory, malware, and log analysis pattern catalogues allows detecting unknown malware in software diagnostics and digital forensics artefacts such as memory dumps, crash reports, and software traces and logs: pattern-driven software diagnostics¹⁴⁶ and forensics¹⁴⁷.

B. Structural and behavioral patterns found on one operating system and/or processor architecture can be predicted for another: pattern-based software diagnostics¹⁴⁸ and forensics.
