Abstract
A method for managing communications in accordance with a given transport protocol. The method is implemented by a first device and includes, following detection of a cyber attack, activating, in the first device, collaboration with at least one entity of the network in order to mitigate the cyber attack, this collaboration including execution, by the first device, of at least one determined action, called collaboration action, during at least one the communication of the first device in accordance with the given transport protocol, via the network.
Claims23
A method for managing communications in accordance with a given transport protocol of a first device of a network, said method being implemented by the first device and comprising:
- following detection of a cyber attack, activating, on said first device, collaboration with at least one entity of said network in order to mitigate said cyber attack, said collaboration comprising execution, by said first device, of at least one determined action, called a collaborative action, during at least one of the communications of said first device in accordance with said given transport protocol, via said network.
(canceled)
A method for communication with a first device of a network, said method being implemented by a second device and comprising:
- receiving an information message from the first device, informing the second device of execution, by the first device, of at least one determined action during at least one communication in accordance with a given transport protocol with the second device, said action, called a collaborative action, allowing collaboration with at least one entity of the network in order to mitigate a cyber attack;
- in response to said second device accepting the execution of said collaborative action, the first device of an agreement.
A method for communication by an entity of a network with at least one device of the network, said method comprising:
- following an inability of said entity to determine whether or not a data flow destined for or originating from said device is associated with a cyber attack, sending, by said entity to said device, a message proposing collaboration of the device in order to mitigate said cyber attack, said collaboration comprising execution, by the device, of at least one determined action, called a collaborative action, during at least one communication of said device in accordance with a given transport protocol via said network.
(canceled)
A device of a network, comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon which when executed by the processor configure the device to implement a method comprising:
- following detection of a cyber attack, activate, on said device, collaboration with at least one entity of the network in order to mitigate said cyber attack, said collaboration comprising executing, during said collaboration, at least one determined action, called a collaborative action, during at least one communication of said device in accordance with a given transport protocol, via said network.
A second device comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon which when executed by the processor configure the second device to implement a method for communicating with a first device, the method comprising:
- receiving an information message from the first device, informing the second device of execution, by the first device, of at least one determined action during at least one communication in accordance with a given transport protocol with the second device, said action, called a collaborative action, allowing collaboration with at least one entity of said network in order to mitigate a cyber attack;
- and
- in response to said second device accepting the execution of said collaborative action, informing the first device of an agreement.
An entity of a network, comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon which when executed by the processor configure the entity to implement a method for communication with at least one device of the network, the method comprising:
- following an inability of said entity to determine whether or not a data flow destined for or originating from a device of the network is associated with a cyber attack, sending, to said device, a message proposing collaboration of the device in order to mitigate said cyber attack, said collaboration comprising execution, by the device, of at least one determined action, called a collaborative action, during at least one communication of said device in accordance with a given transport protocol via said network.
