摘要:
An adaptive normal behavior profile (NBP) architecture for providing fast protection of enterprise applications are disclosed. The adaptive NBP architecture includes a plurality of profile items. Each profile item includes a plurality of profile properties holding the descriptive values of the respective item. An application-level security system can identify and prevent attacks targeted at enterprise applications by matching application events against at least a single profile item in the adaptive NBP.

A method for transparently encrypting sensitive information, comprising detecting at least one literal in a database command that includes sensitive information. The literal is extracted from the database command. The literal is encrypted thereby forming an encrypted string. The literal is replaced by the encrypted string in the database command.

摘要:
The present invention discloses a novel system for controlling the inbound and outbound data packet flow in a computer network. By controlling the packet flow in a computer network, private networks can be secured from outside attacks in addition to controlling the flow of packets from within the private network to the outside world. A user generates a rule base which is then converted into a set of filter language instruction. Each rule in the rule base includes a source, destination, service, whether to accept or reject the packet and whether to log the event. The set of filter language instructions are installed and execute on inspection engines which are placed on computers acting as firewalls. The firewalls are positioned in the computer network such that all traffic to and from the network to be protected is forced to pass through the firewall. Thus, packets are filtered as they flow into and out of the network in accordance with the rules comprising the rule base. The inspection engine acts as a virtual packet filtering machine which determines on a packet by packet basis whether to reject or accept a packet. If a packet is rejected, it is dropped. If it is accepted, the packet may then be modified. Modification may include encryption, decryption, signature generation, signature verification or address translation. All modifications are performed in accordance with the contents of the rule base. The present invention provides additional security to a computer network by encrypting communications between two firewalls between a client and a firewall. This permits the use of insecure public networks in constructing a WAN that includes both private and public network segments, thus forming a virtual private network.
