US Patent:

20200336461, Oct 22, 2020

Filed:

Jun 26, 2020

Appl. No.:

16/914210

Inventors:

- Santa Clara CA, US
Christopher J. Jordan - Great Falls VA, US

Assignee:

McAfee, LLC - Santa Clara CA

International Classification:

H04L 29/06

Abstract:

A device, system, and method for defending a computer network are described. network communications are received by a traffic filter, which dynamically determines whether the communications include an anomaly (i.e., are “anomalous” communications), or whether the communications are normal, and do not include an anomaly. The traffic filter routes normal communications to the correct device within its network for servicing he service requested by the communications. The traffic filter routes any anomalous communications to a virtual space engine, which is configured to fake a requested service (e.g., to entice deployment of a malicious payload). Anomalous communications are analyzed using an analytical engine, which can dynamically develop rules for handling anomalous communications in-line, and the rules developed by the analytical engine can be employed by the traffic filter against future received communications.
