Abstract
According to some embodiments, a method and apparatus are provided to receive, at a central security manager located on a computer network, first network information from a first network resource associated with a first network perspective and receive, at the central security manager, second network information from a second network resource associated with a first network perspective. The first network information and the second network information are aggregated. A potential attack to the network is determined and a defensive measure is implemented in response to the potential attack to the network.
Claims19
A method comprising:
- receiving, at a central security manager located on a computer network, first network information from a first network resource associated with a first network perspective;
- receiving, at the central security manager, second network information from a second network resource associated with a second network perspective;
- aggregating the first network information and the second network information;
- determining, via a processor, a potential attack to the network based on the aggregated first network information and second network information;
- and
- implementing a defensive measure in response to the potential attack to the network.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions that when executed by a processor perform a method, the method comprising:
- receiving, at a central security manager located on a computer network, first network information from a first network resource associated with a first network perspective;
- receiving, at the central security manager, second network information from a second network resource associated with a second network perspective;
- aggregating the first network information and the second network information;
- determining, via a processor, a potential attack to the network based on the aggregated first network information and second network information;
- and
- implementing a defensive measure in response to the potential attack to the network.
An apparatus comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions that when executed by a processor perform a method, the method comprising:
- receiving, at a central security manager located on a computer network, first network information from a first network resource associated with a first network perspective;
- receiving, at the central security manager, second network information from a second network resource associated with a second network perspective;
- aggregating the first network information and the second network information;
- determining, via a processor, a potential attack to the network based on the aggregated first network information and second network information;
- and
- implementing a defensive measure in response to the potential attack to the network.
