METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FORMING CLUSTERS OF NODES IN COMPUTER NETWORK Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC H04L41/00 

FIELD: electrical communication equipment.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to communication networks. Method of forming clusters of nodes in a computer network includes steps of collecting data on network interactions of all nodes of the computer network for a selected period of time, wherein said data contain at least local and remote IP addresses and ports of nodes, determining a list of network connections of each node of a computer network, determining, based on the data, the number of network connections of each node to services by constructing an adjacency matrix of a bipartite graph, generating a graph Laplacian based on the data, and determining eigen values and eigen vectors of each node, performing clustering of computer network based on values of eigen vectors, wherein the clustering process continues until the stop criterion, a graph representing clusters of computer network nodes is formed, network interaction policies are applied in accordance with the obtained clusters of computer network nodes.

EFFECT: increased network security due to accuracy of network nodes clustering.
