Reputations of domain registrars are calculated based on the hosting of risky domains. The more undesirable domains a registrar hosts, the lower is its reputation. The risk level of the hosted domains is also a factor in determining the reputation. When a user attempts to access a hosted domain, the calculated reputation of the hosting domain registrar is used in determining what security steps to apply to the access attempt. The worse the reputation of the hosting registrar, the more security is applied, all else being equal.

Techniques for detecting infected websites are disclosed. In one particular embodiment, the techniques may be realized as a method for detecting an infected website comprising receiving at least one redirection report from at least one security agent, receiving at least one malware report from the at least one security agent, analyzing correlation between the at least one redirection report and the at least one malware report, aggregating information from the at least one redirection report, the at least one malware report, and the correlation analysis, and detecting an infected website based on the aggregated information.

Malware that is signed with multiple, valid credentials is detected. A central computer such as a server receives secure hashes of signed application bodies and immutable portions of corresponding digital signatures for a plurality of signed applications from a plurality of client computers. Received secure hashes of signed application bodies are compared. Multiple instances of a single signed application are identified based on the comparing of multiple received secure hashes of signed application bodies. Responsive to identifying multiple instances of the single signed application, received secure hashes of immutable portions of digital signatures corresponding to identified multiple instances of the single signed application are compared. Responsive to the results of this comparing, a potential maliciousness of the signed application is adjudicated.

A method and apparatus for controlling connectivity within a wireless network. In one embodiment, connectivity control device is provided within the wireless network to disrupt the communications with neighboring nodes of any computer within a protected network. In one embodiment of the invention, all of the wireless computers within a network are logged within the connectivity control device e.g., the wireless interface card identification number is logged. When a computer within the protected network attempts to connect to a neighboring wireless node, the connectivity control device transmits a signal that disrupts the communication with a neighboring wireless node. This disruption may occur by sending a disjoin frame or signal, or other form of communication, to disconnect the unauthorized access. In another embodiment of the invention, the connectivity control device may transmit disruptive communications continuously to ensure that the computers that are not authorized for access to the neighboring wireless node cannot connect to the neighborhood wireless nodes.

A method and apparatus for identifying an optimal configuration of a resource is described. In one embodiment, the method for using a health scoring technique to improve a health of the computer comprises processing profile information and a health score associated with the computer having a resource, wherein the profile information indicates installed software and hardware configuration, wherein the health score represents a health of the computer and identifying an optimal configuration of the resource based on profile information and the health score.

A method and apparatus for automating controlled computing environment protection is disclosed. In one embodiment, the method for automating controlled computing environment protection includes monitoring a controlled computing environment to process user activity information associated with a user computer and comparing the user activity information with abnormal behavior indicia to identify hostile user activity that denotes browser control circumvention.
摘要:
A streaming server which streams an application to a client computer (“endpoint”), as well as the client on which the streamed application runs, makes predictions as to what sections of the application the client is likely to execute in the future. Upon receipt of an indication (e.g., from a system administrator) of a planned service outage of the server or the network, the server transmits the application content that is predicted to be needed by the client during the outage in order to continue executing the application without interruption. The client receives and caches the content. Provided that the prediction is sufficiently accurate, the client can continue to seamlessly execute the application during the service outage.
摘要:
An unlabeled sample is classified using clustering. A set of samples containing labeled and unlabeled samples is established. Values of features are gathered from the samples contained in the datasets and a subset of features are selected. The labeled and unlabeled samples are clustered together based on similarity of the gathered values for the selected subset of features to produce a set of clusters, each cluster having a subset of samples from the set of samples. The selecting and clustering steps are recursively iterated on the subset of samples in each cluster in the set of clusters until at least one stopping condition is reached. The iterations produce a cluster having a labeled sample and an unlabeled sample. A label is propagated from the labeled sample in the cluster to the unlabeled sample in the cluster to classify the unlabeled sample.
摘要:
Method and apparatus for securing confidential data related to a user in a computer is described. In one example, rules are obtained that provide a representation of the confidential data. A storage system in the computer is searched using the rules to detect a file having at least a portion of the confidential data. The file is encrypted the in-place within the storage system using symmetric encryption based on a secret associated with the user.
摘要:
A computer-implemented method for determining whether an application impacts the health of a system may comprise detecting an application, performing a first system-health evaluation, allowing the application to install on the system, performing a second system-health evaluation after the application is installed on the system, and comparing the second system-health evaluation with the first system-health evaluation to determine whether the application impacted the health of the system. Exemplary methods for determining the potential impact of an application on the health of a system and for calculating a system-health-impact score for an application based on information gathered from a plurality of systems are also disclosed. Corresponding systems and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
