Claim 7:
8. A method for assessing a cybersecurity risk of a software object, the method comprising:
generating, at a first compute device and for a software object, an abstract syntax tree (AST);
determining that the AST is insufficient to identify, to a specified confidence level, a cybersecurity risk of the software object;
determining that the cybersecurity risk of the software object cannot be determined based on previous cybersecurity risk classifications of other software objects;
sending a signal to a second compute device, in response to determining that the AST is insufficient to identify the cybersecurity risk of the software object and determining that the cybersecurity risk of the software object cannot be determined based on the previous cybersecurity risk classifications, for gCNN-based generation of a set of features for the AST; and
receiving, from the second compute device, a signal representing a probability of maliciousness of the software object that was calculated by the gCNN and based on the set of features for the AST.
