  • Patent number: 8091093
    Abstract: Systems and methods for network security are disclosed. Embodiments of the present invention include a scalable, real-time solution to complement existing security systems and detect unusual activity. Embodiments of the present invention leverage the scale and complexity of networks and use the principles of statistical physics and thermodynamics to define thermal properties like entropy, temperature and energy for network states and changes in the properties as packets move through the network.
