Abstract

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to analyze network traffic for malicious activity. An example apparatus includes a graph generator to, in response to obtaining one or more internet protocol addresses included within input data, generate a graph data structure based on one or more features of the one or more internet protocol addresses in the input data, a file generator to generate a first matrix using the graph data structure, the first matrix to represent nodes in the graph data structure and generate a second matrix using the graph data structure, the second matrix to represent edges in the graph data structure, and a classifier to, using the first matrix and the second matrix, classify at least one of the one or more internet protocol addresses to identify a reputation of the at least one of the one or more internet protocol addresses.
