1. A method of providing computer security in a computer networking environment including at least one computer system, the method comprising:

  • receiving information from at least one security interceptor associated with at least one computer system, the information identifying details associated with a traffic flow in a computer system of the computer networking environment;

    determining a probability that an attack on the computer system is in progress based on a probabilistic link provided by the information, the probabilistic link determined by attack information associated with previous attacks; and

    based on the information provided by the at least one security interceptor, generating a signature utilized to prevent a similar attack on the computer system.
