Abstract: Identifying malicious executables by analyzing proxy logs includes, at a server having connectivity to the Internet, retrieving sets of proxy logs from a plurality of proxy servers. Each proxy server of the plurality of proxy servers is associated with a network and generates network traffic logs for one or more nodes included in the network. Then, a set of executables hosted by each of the one or more nodes associated with each of the plurality of proxy servers is determined. Each set of executables is analyzed to detect a specific executable and portions of each of the network traffic logs that are associated with the specific executable are identified. An alert is generated indicating the portions of each of the network traffic logs as likely to be associated with the specific executable.

Abstract: Data is collected from a database arrangement about behavior of observed entities, wherein the collected data includes one or more features associated with the observed entities. A probabilistic model is determined that correlates the one or more features with malicious and/or benign behavior of the observed entities. Data is collected from the database arrangement for unobserved entities that have at least one common feature with at least one of the observed entities. One of the unobserved entities is determined to be a malicious entity based on the at least one common feature and the probabilistic model. Network policies are applied to packets sent from the malicious entity.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a system includes a processor to receive network flows, for each of one of a plurality of event-types, compare each one of the network flows to a flow-specific criteria of the one event-type to determine if the one network flow satisfies the flow-specific criteria, for each one of the event-types, for each one of the network flows satisfying the flow-specific criteria of the one event-type, assign the one network flow to a proto-event of the one-event type, test different combinations of the network flows assigned to the proto-event of the one event-type against aggregation criteria of the one event-type to determine if one combination of the network flows assigned to the proto-event of the one event-type satisfies the aggregation criteria for the one event-type and identifies an event of the one event-type from among the network flows of the proto-event. Related apparatus and methods are also described.
