A network traffic hub extracts encryption metadata from messages establishing an encrypted connection between a smart appliance and a remote server and determines whether malicious behavior is present in the messages. For example, the network traffic hub can extract an encryption cipher suite, identified encryption algorithms, or a public certificate. The network traffic hub detects malicious behavior or security threats based on the encryption metadata. These security threats may include a man-in-the-middle attacker or a Padding Oracle On Downgraded Legacy Encryption attack. Upon detecting malicious behavior or security threats, the network traffic hub blocks the encrypted traffic or notifies a user.

Extracting encryption metadata and terminating malicious connections using machine learning

A method and system for detecting malicious behavior from smart appliances within a network. Smart appliances have a certain level of intelligence that allows them to perform a specific role more effectively and conveniently. Network traffic data and identification data is collected about smart appliances within a network. The data is sent to a behavior analysis engine, which computes confidence levels for anomalies within the network traffic that may be caused by malicious behavior. If the behavior analysis engine determines that malicious behavior is present in the network, it sends an instruction to a network traffic hub to block network traffic relating to the anomaly. In some embodiments, network traffic is blocked based on source-destination pairs. In some embodiments, network traffic is blocked from a device outside the network that is determined to be malicious.
