Cryptominer detection: a Machine Learning approach
Cryptominers are one of the main cloud threats today. Miner attacks are low risk, low effort, and high reward for a financially motivated attacker. Moreover, this kind of malware can pass unnoticed because, with proper evasive techniques, they may not disrupt a company’s business operations. Given all the possible elusive strategies, detecting cryptominers is a complex task, but machine learning could help to develop a robust detection algorithm.
