Abstract
A system, method, and computer program product are provided for mitigating an attack on a communication network, the attack causing repetitive reconfiguration of at least a part of the communication network. In use, using a communication management system, one or more configuration changes to a communication network are recorded. Each of the one or more configuration changes are associated with at least one rule, and each of the one or more configuration changes based on the at least one rule is determined. The at least one rule is associated with at least one event, and the at least one event is processed, resulting in an effect to the communication network. Additionally, at least one reconfiguration pattern is determined. Further, it is determined that the at least one reconfiguration pattern is repeated, and an attack to the communication network is mitigated.
