Abstract
Described are methods and apparatus, including computer program products, for mitigating against a cyber attack on a network. An indication is received from an intrusion detection system that an event has occurred representing a threat to the network. Upon receiving the event from the intrusion detection system, automated processes determine a port associated with the threat and automatically block the port.
