Abstract
Techniques for detecting security vulnerabilities are disclosed. In one particular embodiment, the techniques may be realized as a method for detecting security vulnerabilities including assigning a reputation to an application, distributing the reputation to a client, receiving monitored system behavior from the client related to the client executing the application, determining whether to change the reputation of the application based on the monitored system behavior, distributing the changed reputation to the client, receiving further monitored system behavior from the client, and determining whether to generate a rule for the application based on the monitored system behavior received from the client.
