Abstract
Systems and methods may use historical analysis to identify malicious activity. A discovery/recovery system may comprise a processor in communication with a network and in communication with a database. The discovery/recovery system may gather filtered historical network data associated with an asset associated with the network. The discovery/recovery system may analyze the filtered historical network data to determine whether a subset of the filtered historical network data is associated with a malware infection of the asset.
