Abstract: Method and devices of detecting a malware infection of a computing device in a communication network are disclosed. A computing device may monitor outputs of temperature sensors associated with elements of the computing device. The monitored outputs of the temperature sensors may be compared to a profile of temperatures associated with normal operation of the computing device. A deviation of the monitored temperatures from the profile of temperatures associated with normal operation may be reported. The profile of temperatures associated with the normal operation of the computing device may be learned based on temperature sensor data obtained during normal operations. Learning the profile of temperatures may include monitoring outputs of temperature sensors associated with elements of the computing device during normal operation of the computing device and storing the monitored outputs as one or more profiles of temperatures associated with normal operation of the computing device.
