Abstract

Disclosed is a system and method for real-time identification of anomalous behavior in a software program. The system is configured to generate a set of signatures files corresponding to a set of test cases. In one embodiment, each signature file is configured to maintain trace data generated after running the one or more test cases on the software program in a staging environment. Further, the system may capture real-time trace data from the software program, wherein the software program is deployed in a production environment. Further, the system may analyze the real-time trace data to identify a subset of signature files, from the set of signature files, applicable to the real-time trace data. Further, the system may compare the real-time trace data with the sub set of signature files to identify anomalous behavior in the software program.
