Abstract
In accordance with some embodiments of the disclosed subject matter, mechanisms for distributed network monitoring are provided. In some embodiments, a system for distributed network monitoring comprises: local monitors, each comprising: a processor programmed to: generate a model of normal network traffic between a computing device and a router; receive additional traffic; calculate a metric based on a metadata parameter of the additional traffic; determine, based on the metric, whether the additional traffic is anomalous; and transmit, to a central monitoring system, information indicating that the additional traffic is anomalous; and the central monitoring system comprising: a second processor programmed to: receive information indicating that the additional traffic is anomalous; receive information related to the additional traffic; determine, based on the information, that the additional traffic is anomalous; and take an action to secure communications across the portion of the network associated with the additional traffic.
