The invention relates to a system and method that can detect botnets by classifying the communication activities for each client according to destination or based on similarity between the groups of collected traffic. According to certain aspects of the invention, the communication activities for each client can be classified to model network activity by differentiating the protocols of the collected network traffic based on destination and patterning the subgroups for the respective protocols. Those servers that are estimated to be C&C servers can be classified into download and upload, spam servers and command control servers, within a botnet group detected by modeling network activity, i.e. analyzing network-based activity patterns. Also, botnet groups can be detected by way of a group information management function, for generating an activity pattern-based group matrix based on group data, and a mutual similarity analysis, performed on groups suspected to be botnets from the group information.

In a user-activity identification technique, a user's actions are monitored while the user is using a computer. While these user actions are associated with user activities, the user activities are initially unspecified, so the tracked user actions constitute unsupervised data. Then, the tracked user actions are aggregated into subsets (for example, using clustering analysis), and user-activity classifications for the subsets (such as activity labels) are provided by the user, so the subsets constitute supervised data. Subsequently, when additional user actions (which are associated with one or more initially unspecified current user activities) are tracked, they can be associated with one or more of the classified subsets. For example, information about the additional user actions can be mapped in real time (or near real time) to one or more of the subsets using a supervised learning technique. In this way, the one or more current user activities can be identified.
