Abstract

See full text

A computerized method, computer-readable medium and a monitoring system are each provided for determining whether a selected computer system is a candidate relay node used to route network traffic from an origin to a destination computer system. Particularly suited for identifying relay sites used by an attacker during a relay attack, the invention in its various forms provides for monitoring inbound and outbound network traffic associated with a computer system of interest to determine if there is a recurring correlation therebetween which indicates that the system is used to repeatedly forward inbound network traffic from a particular predecessor node on a network architecture to a particular successor node on the network architecture. If such a correlation recurs with a selected frequency, the computer system of interest is identified as a candidate relay site.
