Malware containment and security analysis on connection

A malware containment system comprising:

• a controller for containing malware;
• a memory;
• a quarantine module stored in the memory, and executed by the controller to detect a digital device upon connection with a communication network and quarantine network data from the digital device for a predetermined period of time by configuring a switch to direct the network data to the controller;
• a security module stored in the memory, and executed by the controller to transmit a command to the digital device to activate a security program to identify security risks;
• and
• an analysis module stored in the memory, and executed by the controller to:
• analyze the quarantined network data to identify malware within the digital device by (i) configuring a virtual machine to receive the quarantined network data and (ii) analyzing a response of the virtual machine to the quarantined network data to identify a malware attack, and
• store a result of the quarantined network data analysis in memory.

A non-transitory machine readable medium having embodied thereon executable code, the executable code being executed by a processor for performing a method for malware containment, the method comprising:

• detecting a digital device upon connection with a communication network;
• quarantining network data from the digital device for a predetermined period of time by configuring a switch to direct the network data from the digital device to a controller;
• transmitting a command to the digital device to activate a security program to identify security risks;
• analyzing the quarantined network data to identify malware within the digital device, the analyzing of the quarantined network data comprises (i) configuring a virtual machine to receive the network data and (ii) analyzing a response of the virtual machine to the network data to identify a malware attack;
• and
• storing a result of the quarantined network data analysis in memory.
