Abstract
An apparatus, method, and program for detecting suspicious communications are described herein. In some implementations, the method includes managing received communications in a database by separating them as encrypted communications and as non-encrypted communications; determining whether each received communication is an encrypted communication or a non-encrypted communication; performing padding on transmission and reception size values and transmission and reception packet numbers of the non-encrypted communication to fill in a difference from the encrypted communication; generating features from the non-encrypted communication obtained after padding and registering the features in the database; training a machine learning model by using features of the non-encrypted communications registered in the database as training data; referring to the database by using information about a received encrypted communication; entering obtained features about the received encrypted communication to the machine learning model; and determining whether the received encrypted communication is a suspicious communication.
