Abstract

An example method can include receiving a traffic report from a sensor and using the traffic report to detect intra-datacenter flows. These intra-datacenter flows can then be compared with a description of historical flows. The description of historical flows can identify characteristics of normal and malicious flows. Based on the comparison, the flows can be classified and tagged as normal, malicious, or anomalous. If the flows are tagged as malicious or anomalous, corrective action can be taken with respect to the flows. A description of the flows can then be added to the description of historical flows.
