Abstract: A division unit divides communication traffic in a communication network into a plurality of streams. A calculation unit calculates a first abnormality degree based on a result of autoregressive analysis of a first stream among the plurality of streams, and a second abnormality degree based on a comparison result between the first stream and a second stream similar to the first stream. A determination unit determines whether the cause of the abnormality is the first stream, a stream different from the first stream, or a communication network based on the first abnormality degree and the second abnormality degree.
