Abstract
A tainting engine can work in conjunction with a syntax attack detection template to identify when a threat actor attempts a malicious attack in a cloud application scenario. Non-intrusive instrumentation can be used to provide detection of an attempted attack regardless of whether the cloud application is vulnerable to such attacks. Detection of attempted attacks can be an important part of maintaining network security, even in cases where an application itself is not vulnerable to such attacks. Further details about the attempted attack can be assembled, and a variety of actions can be taken in response to detection.
