Abstract

Embodiments are directed to monitoring network traffic using network monitoring computers (NMCs). NMCs may determine requests provided to a server based on a first portion of network traffic. NMCs may determine suspicious requests based on characteristics of the provided requests. NMCs may employ the characteristics of the suspicious requests to provide correlation information that is associated with the suspicious requests. NMCs may determine dependent actions associated with the server based on a second portion of the network traffic and the correlation information. And, in response to determining anomalous activity associated with the evaluation of the dependent actions, NMCs may provide reports associated with the anomalous activity.
