Enforcing a variety of security measures (such as intrusion detection systems, and so on)
can provide a certain level of protection to computer networks. However, such security …

Enterprise networks today host a wide variety of network services, which often depend on
each other to provide and support network-based services and applications. Understanding …

Detecting dependencies among network services has been well-studied in previous
research. These attempts at service dependency detection fall into two classes: active and …

TCP/UDP port scanning or sweeping is one of the most common technique used by
attackers to discover accessible and potentially vulnerable hosts and applications. Although …

The automated identification of network service dependencies remains a challenging
problem in the administration of large distributed systems. Advances in developing solutions …

The combination of service-oriented applications, with their run-time service binding, and
