Program Similarity Recognition Based on Behaviour Analysis

The goal of this master thesis was to design an algorithm that will be able to measure the difference between two programs based on their behavioral description. For the algorithm needs, the Levenshtein distance method between two strings and NCD method, were used. Both methods have their implementation approach and test result described. This term also discusses various methods of program analysis in virtual machine environment, as well as explanation of some basic concepts regarding malware analysis
