Abstract

In one embodiment, a controller in a network may receive an injected command to be executed by an application from an application monitoring agent operating in the network. The injected command may be intercepted by the application monitoring agent prior to execution of the injected command by the application. The controller may then use a security algorithm to determine whether the injected command is malicious. If it is determined that the injected command is not malicious, the controller may enable the application to execute the injected command. Conversely, if it is determined that the injected command is malicious, the controller may prevent the application from executing the injected command.
