    摘要: A method comprises receiving, at a network infrastructure device, a flow of packets, determining, using the network infrastructure device and for a first subset of the packets, that the first subset corresponds to a first datagram and determining a first length of the first datagram, determining, using the network infrastructure device and for a second subset of the packets, that the second subset corresponds to a second datagram that was received after the first datagram, and determining a second length of the second datagram, determining, using the network infrastructure device, a duration value between a first arrival time of the first datagram and a second arrival time of the second datagram, sending, to a collector device that is separate from the network infrastructure device, the first length, the second length, and the duration value for analysis.

    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 method for the prioritized transmission of messages includes monitoring a network link of a mobile device to determine performance characteristics of the network link, establishing a network association between the mobile device and a routing network node, receiving a connection request from an application that is directed to a connection between the mobile device and a destination server, determining a relative priority of the connection, mapping the connection to a stream of the network association that is associated with the relative priority of the connection and identifies the destination server, and transmitting messages for the stream to the routing network node interlaced with messages of other streams of the network association based on the performance characteristics of the network link and the relative priority associated with the stream in comparison to relative priorities associated with the other streams of the network association.

    摘要: An optimized approach to whitelisting includes, at a domain name service server, determining whether a first domain and a second domain resolve to a same Internet Protocol (IP) address, and in response to a request from a domain name service proxy as to whether the first domain resolves to an IP address shared by another domain, notifying the domain name service proxy that the first domain resolves to an IP address shared by another domain. The method further includes the domain name service proxy receiving from the domain name service server a response that indicates that the first domain resolves to an IP address shared by another domain, and storing, in memory, the IP address and an indication that the IP address is shared by another domain. A data flow associated with a shared IP address is subjected to further scrutiny even if the IP address is on a whitelist.
