    摘要: At least initially blocking client download of certain content and injecting a user verification step for such downloads is disclosed. In some embodiments, a notification page with an option to accept a response from a server is provided to a client, an indication of user selection of the option to accept in the notification page is received from the client, and requested content received from the server is provided to the client. Injecting a user verification step via the notification page before providing requested content facilitates protecting the client from security threats.

    摘要: Techniques for integrating a honey network with a target network environment (e.g., an enterprise network) to counter IP and peer-checking evasion techniques are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system for integrating a honey network with a target network environment includes a device profile data store that includes a plurality of attributes of each of a plurality of devices in the target network environment; a virtual clone manager executed on a processor that instantiates a virtual clone of one or more devices in the target network environment based on one or more attributes for a target device in the device profile data store; and a honey network policy that is configured to route an external network communication from the virtual clone for the target device in the honey network to an external device through the target network environment.

    摘要: Techniques for sinkholing bad network domains by registering the bad network domains on the Internet are provided. In some embodiments, sinkholing bad network domains by registering the bad network domains on the Internet includes determining a network domain is a bad network domain, in which the bad network domain is determined to be associated with an identified malware (e.g., malware that has been identified and has been determined to be associated with the bad domain), and the bad network domain is sinkholed by registering the bad network domain with a sinkholed IP address; and identifying a host that is infected with the identified malware based on an attempt by the host to connect to the sinkholed IP address.

    摘要: Techniques for performing static and dynamic analysis on a mobile device application are disclosed. Static analysis is performed on a mobile device application using a static analysis engine. A static analysis report is generated. Dynamic analysis of the application is performed using a dynamic analysis engine. The dynamic analysis performed is customized based on results of the static analysis. A determination of whether the application is malicious is made based at least on the dynamic analysis.

    摘要: In some embodiments, identification of malware sites using unknown URL sites and newly registered DNS addresses includes performing a heuristic analysis for information associated with a network site; and assigning a score based on the heuristic analysis, in which the score indicates whether the network site is potentially malicious. In some embodiments, the system includes a security appliance that is in communication with the Internet. In some embodiments, the network site is associated with a network domain and/or a network uniform resource locator (URL). In some embodiments, performing a heuristic analysis for information associated with a network site further includes determining if a network site has recently been registered. In some embodiments, performing a heuristic analysis for information associated with a network site further includes determining if a network site is associated with recently changed DNS information. In some embodiments, performing a heuristic analysis for information associated with a network site further includes determining geographical information as well as an IP network location associated with the network site.
