Claim One:
1. A method of distributing configuration information of network activity detectors in detecting digital security threats in a computer network having a plurality of network activity detectors, including a first network activity detector, a second network activity detector, and a third network activity detector, the method comprising: identifying, by the first network activity detector during start-up of the first network activity detector, the second network activity detector as a source of the configuration information, wherein the second network activity detector stores the configuration information of network activity detectors in detecting digital security threats; in response to the first network activity detector identifying the second network activity detector as the source during the start-up of the first network activity detector, sending, by the first network activity detector to the second network activity detector, a request for the configuration information; and receiving, by the first network activity detector from the second network activity detector, the configuration information; configuring the first network activity detector as a second source of the configuration information; and sending, by the first network activity detector as the second source, the configuration information to the third network activity detector during start-up of the third network activity detector.
