Abstract
For each page of a set, a Bayesian classification of the URL associated with the page is performed, and a maliciousness probability is assigned to the URL based on the Bayesian classification. A traversal priority is assigned to each page of the set, the assigned traversal priorities initially directing a breadth first traversal of the set of pages. The assigned traversal priorities of a subset of the pages of the set are modified to direct higher priority traversals, responsive to the maliciousness probabilities of the URLs corresponding to the pages of the subset. Each page of the set is traversed in the order specified by the traversal priorities, and analyzed during traversal to determine whether the page is malicious.
