Management of trusted flow system
This invention discloses a method and system for detecting and reacting to unexpected communications patterns. The system consists of a plurality of end stations and a plurality of network interfaces, such that, the network interface is capable of determining the authenticity of the program used by the end station to generate and send data packets. The system further consists of a plurality of secure management servers, which continuously exchange management messages with the network interfaces. Consequently, the secure management servers have the information for detecting unexpected communications patterns. The method allows the control of end stations, and when an unexpected communication pattern is detected, selectively only packets from authenticated programs can be allowed to be transmitted.
