Using EM Waves to Detect Malware

Source

I don’t even know what I think about this. Researchers have developed a malware detection system that uses EM waves: “ Obfuscation Revealed: Leveraging Electromagnetic Signals for Obfuscated Malware Classification.” Abstract : The Internet of Things (IoT) is constituted of devices that are exponentially growing in number and in complexity. They use numerous customized firmware and hardware, without taking into consideration security issues, which make them a target for cybercriminals, especially malware authors. We will present a novel approach of using side channel information to identify the kinds of threats that are targeting the device. Using our approach, a malware [...]
