Abstract
A system receives information from at least one security interceptor associated with at least one computer system. The information identifies details associated with a traffic flow in a computer system of the computer networking environment. The system determines a probability that an attack on the computer system is in progress based on a probabilistic link provided by the information. The probabilistic link is determined by attack information associated with previous attacks. Based on the information provided by the at least one security interceptor, the system generates a signature utilized to prevent a similar attack on the computer system.
