1. A non-transitory computer-implemented method comprising:

  • distributing a rule to a distributed capture system, wherein the rule defines an action for the distributed capture system to perform regarding packets intercepted by the distributed capture system;

    storing the rule in a global configuration database, which includes registered documents, each of the registered documents including a respective signature and a respective document identifier that collectively form a primary key, which can be searched within the global configuration database; and

    distributing a plurality of crawler tasks to the capture system, wherein the crawler tasks are configured to search for rule violations within resting documents that are not being transmitted over a network connection, wherein the action is based on a particular document registered with the capture system and content of an object provided in the packets, and wherein the particular document is identified by one or more signatures, which can be compared against signatures derived from the object.
