Abstract

See full text

Actions of servers and other network devices within a network are monitored to detect whether the servers and network devices are performing tasks, using protocols, and communicating through ports that are consistent with legitimate (or “permissible”) purposes. That is, rather than attempting to belatedly identify malware signatures and screen all traffic into and out of a network for these signatures, embodiments of the present invention scrutinize devices (such as servers and other network infrastructure elements) for malware behavior that is inconsistent with an identified set of actions known to be consistent with legitimate tasks performed by the network device.
