In accordance with particular embodiments, a computer-implemented method for execution by one or more processors includes intercepting a communication comprising a message. The method also includes identifying words from within the message. The method further includes storing in a dictionary words from within the message of the communication and one or more parameters of the communication for each of the words. The dictionary comprises a plurality of words from a plurality of intercepted text-based communications. The method also includes receiving an encrypted file that is configured to be decrypted using a password. The method additionally includes identifying words from the dictionary to be used to attempt to decrypt the encrypted file. The identified words are identified based on at least one parameter associated with the encrypted file and the one or more parameters stored in the dictionary. The method further includes attempting to decrypt the encrypted file using at least a portion of the identified words from the dictionary as the password for decrypting the encrypted attachment.

A method of verifying integrity of a digital file includes receiving the digital file subsequent to exposure to a foreign environment and validating the digital file. The received digital file has an appended signature label that includes one or both of a first hash value and a digital signature. Validating the digital file includes hashing the digital file to obtain a second hash value, retrieving the first hash value from the signature label, and comparing the first hash value and second hash value.

In one embodiment, a method includes identifying, using one or more processors, a plurality of characteristics of a Portable Document Format (PDF) file. The method also includes determining, using the one or more processors, for each of the plurality of characteristics, a score corresponding to the characteristic. In addition, the method includes comparing, using the one or more processors, the determined scores to a first threshold. Based at least on the comparison of the determined scores to the first threshold, the method includes determining, using the one or more processors, that the PDF file is potential malware.

According to one embodiment, a computer-implemented method includes accessing, using one or more processing units, a first file of a plurality of files requested to be analyzed for malware. Each of the plurality of files corresponds to a respective remote client of a plurality of remote clients. Further, the method includes: processing, using the one or more processing units, an analysis of the first file for malware; and generating an output comprising an indication of whether the first file comprises malware. The method also includes accessing, using the one or more processing units, an address for a first remote client of the plurality of remote clients. The first remote client is the respective remote client corresponding to the first file. In addition, the method includes: sending, using the one or more processing units, the output in a communication addressed to the first remote client corresponding to the first file.

In accordance with particular embodiments, a method includes intercepting a communication and extracting metadata associated with the communication. The extracted metadata comprises a plurality of different fields from communication metadata and file metadata. The method further includes determining a score, based on previous communications, for each field of the extracted metadata. The score is indicative of a likelihood that the communication is a malicious communication. The method additionally includes combining the scores to generate a combined score for the communication based on an algorithm developed from the previous communications. The method also includes generating, based on the combined score at a first time, a predicted classification as to whether the communication is a malicious communication. The method further includes receiving, at a second time subsequent to the first time, an indication of whether the communication is a malicious communication and updating the algorithm based on the indication.
摘要:
A computer-implemented method includes accessing, by an analysis console, information related to a first file received at a first host of a plurality of hosts. Each host is capable of running a corresponding set of malware detection processes. The information includes: an identifier of the first file; and data indicating a first result of the first host applying the set of malware detection processes to the first file. The identifier is generated by the first host and is usable by each of the hosts to determine whether a second file comprises content substantially equivalent to content of the first file. The analysis console generates a first output including: the identifier of the first file; and a second result indicating whether the first file comprises malware. The second result is usable by each of the hosts to determine whether the second file comprises malware. The first output is propagated to the hosts.
摘要:
In certain embodiments, a method includes receiving a first file. The method also includes accessing at least one storage module comprising a first malware pattern, a second malware pattern, and a third malware pattern. The second malware pattern is a first permutation of the first malware pattern. The third malware pattern is a second permutation of the second malware pattern and is different than the second malware pattern. The method includes comparing, by at least one processor, the first file to the third malware pattern. In addition, the method includes determining, by the at least one processor, that the first file comprises malware in response to comparing the file to the third malware pattern.

摘要:
In certain embodiments, a method includes receiving, at a proxy, a request for access to a network from an application on an endpoint. The method also includes determining, by the proxy, information about the application on the endpoint by examining one or more headers of the request received at the proxy from the application. The method further includes determining, by the proxy, whether the one or more headers comprise expected information based on the determined information about the application. In response to determining that the one or more headers do not comprise the expected information, the method includes denying, by the proxy, the request for access to the network. In addition, in response to determining that the one or more headers comprise the expected information, the method includes forwarding, by the proxy, the request to the network on behalf of the application.
