Method and system for encrypted network management and intrusion detection

摘要

A network security system includes a system data store capable of storing a variety of data associated with an encrypted computer network and communications transmitted thereon, a communication interface supporting communication over a communication channel and a system processor. Data corresponding to communications transmitted over the encrypted communication network are received. One or more tests are applied to the received data to determine whether a particular communication represents a potential security violation. An alarm may be generated based upon the results of the applied test or tests.
