A method and system for detecting and reducing botnet activity includes tracking the number of connections to a destination address over predetermined periods of time. A persistence value is assigned to the destination address based on the number of time periods during which the destination address was connected. The persistence value is compared to a threshold value and an alert is generated if the persistence value is greater than the threshold value. Known safe destinations may be entered into a whitelist.

Method and system for detecting and reducing botnet activity

A method and system for identifying optimal mapping of logical links to the physical topology of a network is provided. Upon obtaining one or more mapping options for mapping multiple logical links between two or more pairs of network nodes onto physical paths that are as at least relatively disjoint and a priority order of the network node pairs, the mapping options are correlated with the priority order of the network nodes to identify optimal mapping of logical links to the physical topology of a network.

Method and system for identifying optimal mapping in a network

A system and method for identifying optimal mapping of logical links to the physical topology of a network is provided. Upon obtaining one or more mapping options for mapping multiple logical links between one or more pairs of network nodes onto physical paths that are at least relatively disjoint and obtaining a maximum time delay allowed between the each pair of network nodes, the mapping options are correlated with the maximum time delay to identify optimal mapping of logical links to the physical topology of a network.
