摘要:
A request from a software developer is received to digitally sign software included in the request. A security policy associated with the software developer is accessed where the security policy describes criteria for valid request by the software developer. A determination is made whether the request is valid based at least in part on the security policy. The software is digitally signed responsive to the determination indicating that the request is valid. The digitally signed software is provided to the software developer.

Risk profiling in order to optimize the deployment of security measures such as behavior-blocking, hardening, or securing techniques is disclosed. Risk profiling includes evaluating a risk to a host service based on communication with a remote system, creating a risk profile for the host service, and deploying a security measure to protect the host service based on the risk profile. Risk profiling enables optimization of deployment of security measures to protect a host service that is either directly or indirectly communicating with a remote system. Using a risk profile enables the optimal deployment of security measures while preventing host system performance degradation and increased system requirements (e.g., increased memory and processor usage).

A method and apparatus for mitigating the performance impact of background or idle time processing during interactive computing sessions. One embodiment of the present invention is a method for mitigating performance impact of background or idle time processing on interactive applications comprising identifying executable and data pages in physical memory that are associated with an interactive application that is temporarily unused and preventing any of the identified executable and data pages from paging out.

Computer implemented methods, apparatus, and computer-readable media for detecting suspected spam in e-mail (24) originating from a sending computer (21). A method embodiment comprises the steps of determining (11) the actual IP address (23) of the sending computer (21); converting (12) the actual IP address (23) into geo-location data; and, using the geo-location data, ascertaining (13) whether the e-mail (24) contains suspected spam.

A robust and reliable mechanism is disclosed for detecting whether a system has (or may have) been booted into a compromised or otherwise unprotected environment, so that a persisted clean file cache can be used across boots when appropriate. As such security scanning of files. A clean file cache can be maintained and used by a security application to avoid unnecessarily re-scanning a file that has not been modified since last being scanned and determined clean. Unnecessary scans are therefore avoided.

Techniques for identifying malicious downloadable applications are disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the techniques may be realized as a method for identifying malicious downloadable applications comprising receiving a signature of a downloadable application, identifying, using at least one computer processor, a known good application having at least one attribute in common with the downloadable application and having a signature different from the signature of the downloadable application, analyzing the downloadable application to evaluate one or more risk factors based at least in part on the at least one common attribute and the difference in signatures, and determining, based on the evaluated one or more risk factors, one or more responsive actions.
