Man vs. Machine -
A Study of the Ability of Statistical Methodologies to Discern Human Generated
ssh Traffic from Machine Generated scp Traffic

ABSTRACT
This talk will present our recent results that detail the classification of
human-based ssh traffic as compared to machine-based scp traffic. Since both of
these services, ssh and scp,
use the same port, port 22, this classification problem
occurs within a quite natural framework.
Results that illustrate an exploratory
analysis of the data will be presented
along with some preliminary classification
results.
