Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are disclosed for detecting vulnerabilities based on aggregated primitives. A particular method includes receiving a plurality of data transmissions. At least one of the data transmissions includes a protocol anomaly that is not indicative of a security threat. The method includes identifying a plurality of primitives associated with the data transmissions. The primitives are aggregated, and an attack condition is identified based on the aggregated primitives. A security alert is generated based on the identified attack condition.
