Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for determining network related anomaly scores. One of the methods includes generating a network map including at least a plurality of network nodes and a plurality of edges that indicate communications paths between the plurality of network nodes, obtaining first data indicating network activity over the edges and between the plurality of network nodes for a first time period, generating a model of expected network activity over the edges and between the plurality of network nodes for a future time period using the network map and the first data, obtaining second data indicating network activity over the edges and between the plurality of network nodes for a second time period, and determining an anomaly score using a comparison between the second data and the model of expected network activity.
