Abstract
A method for identifying a threatening network comprises an asymmetric threat signature (AT-SIG) algorithm comprising a network movement before/after algorithm that provides a graphical plot of changes in network transaction activity from before to after a specified time and further comprising one or more of: a network progression algorithm that provides a graphical plot to analyze behavior in small increments of time without specification or emphasis upon a particular time or event; a statistical network anomaly ranking algorithm that provides as output a ranked list of the networks; and an anomaly trend graphs algorithm that analyzes and visualizes the networks' anomaly scores over time. Also disclosed are an AT-SIG system and a software program product.
