Award Information
Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2007, $68,000)
This project will aid computer forensic investigators and examiners by developing a tool or set of tools to detect malicious software that is used to perform Steganography or data hiding functions without the use of hash-based searches for specific files. Examining programs in their disk-resident, static form, the Trait Analytic Program Search (TAPS) compares files to known models of steganographic programs and attempts to determine if a given executable file is malicious.
