Being illegitimate access program supervisory treatment manner and the treatment manner which monitors the activity of the illegitimate access program

摘要

The apparatus analyzes management information about network information collected from a computer and a router, detects a change in the management information specific to the activity of an unauthorized access program (worm), and generates alert information including a type of apparatus whose collected management information indicates the detected change and address information about an apparatus suspected of performing the activity of a worm. When the type of apparatus in the alert information refers to a computer, the apparatus generates an instruction to delete relayed information for the computer. When the type of apparatus refers to a network connection apparatus, the apparatus generates an instruction to set a filter for cutting off the communications of a worm with the network connection apparatus. Thus, the apparatus transmits the instructions.
