Abstract
Apparatus, systems, and methods for the detection and remediation of malicious network traffic. Network traffic is received from a network-based device and analyzed the network traffic to identify the network-based device as an infected network-based device. In response to identifying the network-based device as an infected network-based device, a response message is sent to the infected network-based device, the response message triggering a tarpitting effect on the network-based device.
