The invention relates to a server mining virus protection system and method. At present, most of hacker organizations turn to the camp of mining viruses due to enormous benefits of the virtual currency and gradual rising of gas flames of the mining viruses, so that the mining viruses have very many novel variants, and most of the existing mining virus protection modes based on the feature librarycannot achieve a very good effect. Server resource fine-grained management and control are taken as a core, a process management and control driving technology is utilized to control the utilizationrate of core resources (a CPU, an internal memory, a video memory, a hard disk and a network) of the server, and illegal processes using the resources are limited at a very low level, so that the corefunction of the mining virus is fundamentally limited. The traffic for a protected server is analyzed in combination with the network side. The traffic is compared with mining virus flow characteristics. The traffic is compared with a mine pool resource pool so as to identify whether mining virus flow exists in the network or not. Resources, a host and a network are linked, so that mining viruseshave no place to hide, and meanwhile, the mining virus epidemic situation can be notified to a safety administrator in time to be treated in time.
