Abstract

Statistical analysis can be used to attempt to identify potentially malicious references, such as trap URLs. When a URL is utilized for a request, that request can be intercepted before analysis before that URL is resolved to an address. Portions of this URL, as well as the entire URL, can be compared against one or more lists of known URLs using a probabilistic matching process to determine whether there are any matches that are very close but not quite exact. Any determined match with high probability above a suspicion threshold can be flagged as being suspicious, or associated with a potentially malicious site. An action can then be taken, such as to block that URL or prompt a user for confirmation of intent.
