A processing system may obtain baseline attributes associated with a plurality of representative files of a first type of network equipment, where the baseline attributes comprise a plurality of baseline checksums associated with the plurality of representative files, obtain snapshot attributes associated with a first plurality of files of a first device deployed in a communication network, where the first device is of the first type of network equipment, and where the first plurality of files is associated with at least a portion of the plurality of representative files, identify at least one file of the first plurality of files or at least one directory associated with the first plurality of files, for which a respective one of the snapshot attributes fails to match a respective one of the baseline attributes, and perform at least one remedial action in the communication network in response to the identifying.

Network device agentless validation

Dynamic multi-network security controls are provided herein. A method can include receiving a report of malicious network traffic observed by first network equipment operating in a first communication network, where the report indicates a second communication network distinct from the first communication network as an originating network of the malicious network traffic, identifying second network equipment operating in the second communication network as a source of the malicious network traffic, and based on the identifying, blocking communications from the second network equipment for a defined time interval.
