Abstract: In an embodiment, a dynamic analysis engine is configured to receive an identifier associated with a source for network traffic including at least one object having at least a prescribed probability of being associated with an exploit. Deployed within a detection cloud, the dynamic analysis engine comprises one or more virtual machines and monitoring logic. The virtual machines are adapted to virtually process the identifier by establishing a communication session with a server hosting a website accessible by the identifier. In communication with the virtual machines, the monitoring logic is adapted to detect anomalous behaviors by the virtual machines during the communication session with the server.
