Abstract
A first network interface coupled to one or more clients. The first network interface analyzes received network communications to determine if a first rule of any of one or more rules corresponds to the received network communications associated with a first client. The network interface updates a first set of statistical information accumulated over a time period associated with the first client responsive to a determination that the first rule corresponds to the network communications. The network interface analyzes the first set of statistical information to determine if aberrant network behavior is occurring with respect to the first client by applying a set of conditions to the first set of statistical information. Each of the set of conditions corresponds to aberrant network behavior and comprises a threshold to be applied to at least a portion of the statistical information.
