HTTP: CAW URI Resource Request
This signature detects Content-Addressable Web (CAW) Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) Resource requests. These are generally requests for a specific file referenced by hash (such as SHA1) for the purposes of file mirroring, typically used in a Content Distribution Network (CDN), but also used by many Peer to Peer (P2P) Networks. This signature triggers if you use a CDN for your Web site content or are using a mirror. Otherwise, it can be an indication of Peer to Peer activity.
