Abstract

A computer method and system to determine one or more sub-groups of protected network servers for receiving common network filter settings for mitigating Denial of Services (Dos) attacks. Network traffic associated with the plurality of network servers is captured and collated for each of the plurality of network servers. The collated network traffic is then analyzed to determine a profile of one or more network services provided by each of the plurality of network servers. Each of the plurality of network servers is then tagged with one or more network services determined provided by each network server based upon analysis of the collated network traffic. Metadata is then determined from the collated network traffic that is associated with each of the plurality of network servers. A determination of sub-group clustering is made of one or more of the plurality of network servers contingent upon the one or more determined network service tags and the determined meta data associated with each of the plurality of network servers. Common DoS mitigation actions may then be prescribed for each of the determined sub-group clusters of network servers.
