Designing a new model to detect Trojan Horse based on knowledge discovery and data mining

Trojan has become a real threat to computer users for more than a decade. It is considered as one of the most serious threats in cyber world. Trojan has polymorphism characteristics that make the detection processes much harder than before. Therefore, in this thesis a new model called Efficient Troj...
