Abstract:
A method and apparatus for detecting covert routing is disclosed. In the method and apparatus, data addressed to an unrestricted computer system traverses a first routing path. The data may be caused to traverse a second a routing path to be received by the unrestricted computer system, whereby a response received from the unrestricted computer system may be indicative of a potential that the data traversing the first routing path was covertly routed to a restricted computer system.
