Abstract
A system communicates a request to a plurality of network nodes to provide user information associated with a document. The system receives a plurality of log files that comprises data communications among the network nodes and responses to the request. The system determines a first number of network nodes that are associated with a first anomaly from the plurality of log files. The system determines a second number of network nodes that are associated with a second anomaly from the plurality of log files. The system determines the number of malicious network nodes by combining the first number and the second number of network nodes. If the system determines that the number of malicious network nodes exceeds a threshold percentage, it assigns one or more network nodes to store the user information until the number of malicious network nodes is less than the threshold percentage.
