    摘要: In one embodiment, a service receives traffic telemetry data regarding encrypted traffic sent by an endpoint device in a network. The service analyzes the traffic telemetry data to infer characteristics of an application on the endpoint device that generated the encrypted traffic. The service receives, from a monitoring agent on the endpoint device, application telemetry data regarding the application. The service determines that the application is evasive malware based on the characteristics of the application inferred from the traffic telemetry data and on the application telemetry data received from the monitoring agent on the endpoint device. The service initiates performance of a mitigation action in the network, after determining that the application on the endpoint device is evasive malware.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a telemetry exporter in a network establishes a tunnel between the telemetry exporter and a traffic analysis service. The telemetry exporter obtains packet copies of a plurality of packets sent between devices via the network. The telemetry exporter forms a set of traffic telemetry data by discarding at least a portion of one or more of the packet copies, based on a filter policy. The telemetry exporter applies compression to the formed set of traffic telemetry data. The telemetry exporter sends, via the tunnel, the compressed set of traffic telemetry data to the traffic analysis service for analysis.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a traffic inspection service executed by an intermediary device obtains, from a monitoring agent executed by an endpoint device, keying information for an encrypted traffic session between the endpoint device and a remote entity. The traffic inspection service provides a notification to the monitoring agent that acknowledges receipt of the keying information. The traffic inspection service uses the keying information to decrypt encrypted traffic from the encrypted traffic session. The traffic inspection service applies a policy to the encrypted traffic session between the endpoint device and the remote entity, based on the decrypted traffic from the session.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a device in a network captures domain name system (DNS) response data from a DNS response sent by a DNS service to a client in the network. The device captures session data for an encrypted session of the client. The device makes a determination that the encrypted session is malicious by using the captured DNS response data and the captured session data as input to a machine learning-based or rule-based classifier. The device performs a mediation action in response to the determination that the encrypted session is malicious.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a device in a network receives an access policy and a class behavioral model for a node in the network that are associated with a class asserted by the node. The device applies the access policy and class behavioral model to traffic associated with the node. The device identifies a deviation in a behavior of the node from the class behavioral model, based on the application of the class behavioral model to the traffic associated with the node. The device causes performance of a mitigation action in the network based on the identified deviation in the behavior of the node from the class behavioral model.
