  • Publication number: 20210234871
    Abstract: Provided is an infection-spreading attack detection system and method, as well as a program enabling an occurrence of an infection-spreading attack to be detected with high accuracy. A first feature amount is calculated based on traffic information on a packet transferred by a transfer device, and M partial address space(s) are identified to be a monitoring target based on the first feature amount. A second feature amount is calculated for each of the M partial address space(s) based on the traffic information related to the M partial address space(s). Abnormality detection determination is performed on each of the M partial address space(s) based on the second feature amount. Whether the infection-spreading attack has occurred is determined by evaluating M determination results.

  • Patent number: 10069642
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for selecting a client computer as a relay server to rebroadcast common application information that is broadcast from a server system over a network. The client computer is selected randomly to rebroadcast the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) information received from the server system and client computers receiving the UDP information from another client computer relay server on the network do not rebroadcast the information. If the client computer selected to rebroadcast the common information fails to rebroadcast, another client computer is randomly selected as a relay server and takes over rebroadcasting the common information.
