Abstract
In one embodiment, detecting network data, retrieving a whitelist associated with the detected network data, and selectively applying an intrusion prevention policy based on the retrieved whitelist are provided.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- detecting network data;
- generating a whitelist based on the detected network data, wherein the whitelist includes one or more source information for one or more detected network data;
- determining a processing load associated with the detected network data;
- and
- applying an intrusion prevention policy based on the determined processing load.

An apparatus, comprising:
- a storage unit;
- and
- a processing unit operatively coupled to the storage unit, the processing unit configured to detect network data, generate a whitelist based on the detected network data, wherein the whitelist includes one or more source information for one or more detected network data, determine a processing load associated with the detected network data, and apply an intrusion prevention policy based on the determined processing load.
An apparatus, comprising:
- means for detecting network data;
- means for generating a whitelist based on the detected network data, wherein the whitelist includes one or more source information for one or more detected network data;
- means for determining a processing load associated with the detected network data;
- and
- means for applying an intrusion prevention policy based on the determined processing load.
