Abstract

A method for detecting volumetric attacks using multi-phase analysis of API calls is disclosed. The method includes collecting API calls data having API calls to and from protected actors. The method also includes identifying a triggering suspicious time window during which a first set of actors indicate suspicious volume spikes. Further, the method includes performing an API-sequence-based user behavior clustering to identify a subset of the API attack sequence and a second set of actors. Thereafter, the method includes correlating the activities of the second set of actors over a large period of time to identify the complete API attack sequence to extract an attack signature of the complete API attack sequence for detecting potential attacks.
