Abstract:
In an example, a context-aware network is disclosed, including threat intelligence services provided over a data exchange layer (DXL). The data exchange layer may be provided on an enterprise service bus, and may include services for classifying objects as malware or not malware. One or more DXL brokers may provide messaging services including, for example, publish-subscribe messaging and request-response messaging. Advantageously, DXL endpoint devices must make very few assumptions about other DXL endpoint devices.
