摘要:
A method is provided in one example embodiment and includes receiving a reputation value based on a hash of a file making a network connection and on a network address of a remote end of the network connection. The network connection may be blocked if the reputation value indicates the hash or the network address is associated with malicious activity. In more specific embodiments, the method may also include sending a query to a threat analysis host to request the reputation value. Additionally or alternatively the reputation value may be based on query patterns in particular embodiments. In yet more specific embodiments, the network connection may be an inbound connection and/or an outbound connection, and the reputation value may be based on a file reputation associated with the hash and a connection reputation associated with the network address of the remote end of the network connection.

A method is provided in one example embodiment that includes receiving message sender traits associated with email senders, and receiving a dataset of known malware identifiers and network addresses from a spamtrap. The message sender traits may include behavior features and/or content resemblance factors in various embodiments. The method further includes classifying the email senders as malicious or benign based on the behavior features, and further classifying the malicious senders by malware identifiers based on similarity of content resemblance factors and the dataset of known malware identifiers and network addresses. In certain specific embodiments, a supervised classifier, such as a support vector machine, may be used to classify the malicious senders by malware identifiers.
摘要:
Methods and systems for operation upon one or more data processors that classify communications from messaging entities. A method can include receiving a communication that was sent from a messaging entity. A plurality of message classification techniques is used to classify the communication. Each message classification technique is associated with a confidence value which is used in generating a message classification output from the message classification technique. The message classification outputs are combined in order to generate a message profile score. The message profile score is used in deciding what action is to be taken with respect to the communication associated with the messaging entity.

A distributed proxy server system is operable to receive a request for Internet data from a user, obtain the user's identity, store at least one cookie on the user's web browser identifying the user, and filter undesired content before forwarding requested Internet data to the user. A master cookie is associated with the proxy server including user identity information, and an injected domain cookie is associated with the domain of the requested Internet data including user identity information.
摘要:
A system derives a reputation for a plurality of network addresses, the reputation of each network address determined by analyzing a plurality of high-level email features related to one or more emails originating from the network address. The plurality of high-level email features include domain registration analysis, hashed term frequency indexing, persistent communication, address age, correlation analysis, zombie detection, and hash vault matching.
