Abstract

Disclosed is a method and system for detecting malicious entities and malicious behavior in a time evolving network via a graph framework by modeling activity in a network graph representing associations between entities. The system utilizes classification methods to give score predictions indicative of a degree of suspected maliciousness, and presents a unified graph inference method for surfacing previously undetected malicious entities that utilizes both the structure and behavioral features to detect malicious entities.
