Abstract
A method of identifying a potential attack in network traffic includes payload data transmitted to a host entity in the network. The method includes: performing a first data-check on one or more data bytes of the payload data at the host entity; performing a second data-check, equivalent to the first data-check, on data of the network equivalent to the one or more bytes of payload data; and comparing the results of the first and second data-checks to determine if there is a mismatch, the mismatch being an indication of a potential attack.
