    Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for detecting a malware code by generating and analyzing behavior pattern. A malware code detecting apparatus includes a behavior pattern generating unit which defines a characteristic parameter which distinguishes and specifies behaviors of a malware code and normally executable programs, converts an API calling event corresponding to the defined characteristic parameter and generates a behavior pattern in accordance with a similarity for behaviors of converted API call sequences to store the behavior pattern in a behavior pattern DB; and a malware code detecting unit which converts the API calling event corresponding to the defined characteristic parameter when the target process is executed into the API call sequence and determines whether the behavior pattern is a malware code in accordance with a similarity for behaviors of the converted API call sequence and the sequence stored in the behavior pattern DB.
