Abstract

A system and method for threat detection and management. The method includes: comparing the observed activity with a threat profile; generating a threat detection signal including threat information when the observed activity matches the threat profile; altering an operating characteristic of a client device in response to a threat response signal; receiving the threat information; evaluating the threat information; automatically determining an appropriate response to the threat detection signal based on an evaluation of the threat information; comparing the threat detection signal to known threat patterns; distributing new threat information if the threat detection signal does not match a known threat pattern; storing threat information; and providing a user interface information and controls for delivering control information over a control protocol.
