While some researchers have exploited the similarity between cyber attacks and epidemics we believe there is also potential
to leverage considerable experience gained in other biological domains: phylogenetics, ecological niche modeling, and biomonitoring.
Here we describe some new ideas for threat detection from biomonitoring, and approximate graph searching and matching for
cross network aggregation. Generic anomaly aggregation systems using these methods could detect and model the inheritance and evolution of vulnerability and threats across multiple
domains and time scales.
