Abstract

A method and device for integrating multiple threat security services are disclosed. The method may comprise parsing an incoming packet at a current layer and analyzing the packet with respect to multiple threat security services and so that one or more threat security services needed by the packet may be determined. According to an exemplary embodiment, the current layer may be a layer in a protocol stack constructed based on the multiple threat security services. With this method, integrated multiple threat security services may filter application data and parse network packet data via a single integrated entity, and thus the efficacy of filtering application data may be improved while computation overhead may be reduced.
