A method and system are provided for managing a security threat in a distributed system. A distributed element of the system detects and reports suspicious activity to a threat management agent. The threat management agent determines whether an attack is taking place and deploys a countermeasure to the attack when the attack is determined to be taking place. Another method and system are also provided for managing a security threat in a distributed system. A threat management agent reviews reported suspicious activity including suspicious activity reported from at least one distributed element of the system, determines, based on the reports, whether a pattern characteristic of an attack occurred, and predicts when a next attack is likely to occur. Deployment of a countermeasure to the predicted next attack is directed in a time window based on when the next attack is predicted to occur.
