Abstract:
Technologies for assembling an execution profile of an event are disclosed. The system and method may include recording a plurality of branch records, generating a first test event substantially identical to the event, verifying legitimacy of an owner of a code segment associated with the event, establishing an initial point of an execution chain associated with the event, establishing a final point of the execution chain associated with the event, analyzing branch records for an address associated with the code segment, installing a plurality of primary monitors within the execution chain associated with the event, and triggering the plurality of primary monitors.
