Abstract
A cloud-based method, a behavioral analysis system, and a cloud-based security system can include a plurality of nodes communicatively coupled to one or more users, wherein the plurality of nodes each perform inline monitoring for one of the one or more users for security comprising malware detection and preclusion; and a behavioral analysis system communicatively coupled to the plurality of nodes, wherein the behavioral analysis system performs offline analysis for any suspicious content from the one or more users which is flagged by the plurality of nodes; wherein the plurality of nodes each comprise a set of known malware signatures for the inline monitoring that is periodically updated by the behavioral analysis system based on the offline analysis for the suspicious content.
