Claim One:
1. A method of adapting to changed conditions and analyzing network communication with respect to a profile of acceptable behavior including probability values of network communication parameters developed from a collection of historical network communication, the method comprising: receiving a current network communication, the current network communication including a first network communication parameter and a second network communication parameter, the first network communication parameter independent of the second network communication parameter; assigning a first probability value indicative of the first network communication parameter, the probability value based on a comparison of the first network communication parameter against the profile of acceptable behavior; assigning a second probability value indicative of the second network communication parameter, the probability value based on a comparison of the second network communication parameter against the profile of acceptable behavior, the second probability value statistically independent of the first probability value; determining the probability value of the current network communication by aggregating the first and second probability values of the first and second network communication parameters; validating the current network communication against the profile of acceptable behavior based upon the probability value of the current network communication and a threshold criteria; triggering a responsive action based on the result of the validation.
