Abstract

Encrypted peer-to-peer detection is provided. In some embodiments, encrypted peer-to-peer detection includes monitoring network traffic from a first client to determine whether the first client is executing a peer-to-peer application; and generating network traffic that emulates peer-to-peer network traffic sent from the peer-to-peer application executing on the first client to a second client after detecting unknown network traffic sent from the first client to the second client. In some embodiments, encrypted peer-to-peer detection includes monitoring network traffic from a client to determine that the client is sending a request for information for a peer-to-peer application executing on the client; and generating a network traffic response to the client that emulates peer-to-peer network traffic.
