Abstract

Systems and methods for analyzing network traffic are provided. An exemplary system may include a plurality of network nodes distributed in multiple geographical regions. The plurality of network nodes may be configured to collect mass scanning network traffic data. The system may also include at least one processor. The processor may be configured to receive, from a first network node, a first network scanning request from a source scanner. In response to the reception of the first network scanning request, the processor may also be configured to transmit, via a second network node, a second network scanning request to the source scanner. The processor may further be configured to determine, based on feedback from the source scanner, whether the source scanner is compromised.
