  • Publication number: 20170126715
    Abstract: A detection device includes a data-propagation tracking unit that gives communication data a tag including attribute information associated with communication destination information of the communication data and tracks propagation of communication data on which the tag including the attribute information is given, and a falsification detection unit that detects falsification on the communication data when, in the communication data, there is a tag including attribute information different from attribute information corresponding to a transmission destination or a transmission source of the communication data.

  • Publication number: 20170019418
    Abstract: A command and control server identifying apparatus provides data received by malware upon execution of the malware with a tag that allows to uniquely identify communication destination information of a source of the data, and tracks propagation of the data provided with the tag. Then, the command and control server identifying apparatus obtains a tag of data referred to by a branch instruction executed by the malware among tracked data. Then, the command and control server identifying apparatus identifies communication destination information of a command and control server that issues a command to the malware, based on communication destination information of a source associated with the obtained tag.
