Abstract
An intrusion detection and prevention (IDP) device includes a flow analysis module, an analysis engine, a plurality of protocol-specific decoders and a profiler. The flow analysis module processes packet flows in a network to identify network elements associated with the packet flows. The analysis engine forms application-layer communications from the packet flows. The plurality of protocol-specific decoders processes the application-layer communications to generate application-layer elements. The profiler correlates the application-layer elements of the application-layer communications with the network elements of the packet flows of the computer network.
