Our group's research on cybersecurity studies how immunity-based agents roam around machines (nodes or routers) and monitor the situation in the network (i.e., look for changes such as malfunctions, faults, abnormalities, misuse, deviations, and intrusions).  These agents can mutually recognize one another's activities and can take appropriate actions according to the underlying security policies.  Such agents can learn and adapt to their environment dynamically and can detect both known and unknown intrusions.
