MALWARE INFECTION DETECTION SERVICE FOR IOT DEVICES

Various embodiments of apparatuses and methods for malware infection detection for edge devices, such as IoT (“Internet of Things”) devices, are described. In some embodiments, a malware infection detection service receives data from a plurality of edge devices of a remote network. It can identify a variety of different detection mechanisms to detect whether an edge device is potentially infected with malware, and determine confidence levels for the different detection mechanisms. Using the detection mechanisms with the received data, it can determine one or more findings that an edge device is potentially infected with malware. It can then determine a confidence level for each finding. It can then determine an accumulated confidence, based on the confidence levels of the detection mechanisms and the findings. The malware infection detection service might then identify one or more of the edge devices as potentially being infected by malware based on the accumulated confidence.
