Abstract

The behavior analysis engine can identify malicious entities based on connections between the entity and other entities. The behavior analysis engine receives an entity from the network traffic hub and identifies entities that are connected to the entity within a threshold degree of separation. The behavior analysis engine applies a recursive process to the entity whereby the behavior analysis engine determines whether an entity is malicious based on whether its connections within a threshold degree of separation are malicious. The behavior analysis engine uses the maliciousness of the entities' connections to determine whether the entity is malicious and, if the entity is malicious, the behavior analysis engine may instruct the network traffic hub to block network communications associated with the malicious entity.
