DETECTION AND FILTERING OF MALWARE BASED ON TRAFFIC OBSERVATIONS MADE IN A DISTRIBUTED MOBILE TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

摘要

Systems and methods for detections and filtering of malware based on traffic observations made in a distributed mobile traffic management system are disclosed. One embodiment of a method which can be implemented on a system includes, collecting information about a request or information about a response to the request initiated at the mobile device and using the information collected about the request or the response to identify or to detect malicious traffic. The information that is collected about the request or response received for the request initiated at the mobile device can be further used to determine cacheability of the response.
