Abstract
In one example embodiment, a network-connected device provides or obtains one or more computer network communications protected by a key. The network-connected device determines a count of the one or more computer network communications according to one or more properties of the one or more computer network communications. Based on the count of the one or more computer network communications, the network-connected device computes an information entropy of the key. Based on the information entropy of the key, the network-connected device dynamically generates a predicted threat level of the key.
