摘要:
A method is carried out by a computer system for combating malicious keystroke-logging activities thereon. An operation is performed for generating a plurality of fake keystroke datasets that are each configured to resemble a keystroke dataset generated by keystrokes made on an input device of the computer system while entering sensitive information of a prescribed configuration. An operation is performed for receiving an instance of the sensitive information instance of the prescribed configuration concurrently with generating the fake keystroke datasets. Receiving the sensitive information instance includes a user of the computer system entering the sensitive information instance by performing keystrokes on the input device of the computer system such that a real keystroke dataset corresponding to the sensitive information instance is generated. An operation is performed for embedding the real keystroke dataset within at least a portion of the fake keystroke datasets after receiving the sensitive information instance.

A method includes receiving an authentication certificate of a voice mail account holder and/or an authentication certificate of a caller wanting to leave a voice mail message the holders' voice mail account. A voice mail apparatus that provides voice mail service for the voice mail account holder performs such receiving. The account holder and/or the caller are authenticated after receiving the authentication certificate of the party being authenticated. Authenticating the account holder and/or the caller is performed using authentication information contained within the respective certificate. After such authentication is successfully performed, a voice mail message record can be created in the account of the account holder. Such creating includes allowing the caller to store the message in the account of the account holder in addition to associating authenticated identification information of the caller with the message and/or providing authenticated identification of the account holder to the caller.
摘要:
A method for authenticating an operator of an AP includes: registering the operator's identity with a CA, by providing the operator's identification information and public key; creating a certificate including the foregoing; signing the certificate with the CA's private key; provisioning the AP with the signed certificate; provisioning a client with the CA's public key; sending a request from the client to the AP; generating a signature with the operator's private key; returning a reply to the client, including the AP provisioned certificate signed with the generated signature; using the client provisioned CA's public key to obtain the operator's public key from the certificate received in the reply; and, using the operator's public key obtained from the certificate received in the reply to verify the signature generated with the operator's private key and used by the AP to sign the certificate received in the reply.

A method is provided for authenticating an identity of an operator (10) of an access point (AP) (52) of a wireless local area network (WLAN) (50) to a client (40) seeking a connection with the AP (52). The method includes: registering the identity of the operator (10) of the AP (52) with a trusted certificate authority (CA) (20), the registering including providing the CA (20) with (i) identification information identifying the operator (10) and (ii) a public key (12) of the operator (10); creating an authentication certificate (30) including the operator's identification information and the operator's public key (12); signing the certificate (30) with a private key (28) of the CA (20); provisioning the AP (52) with the certificate (30) that was signed with the private key (28) of the CA (20); provisioning the client (40) with a public key (24) of the CA (20), the CA's public key (24) being a corresponding counterpart to the CA's private key (28); sending a certificate request from the client (40) to the AP (52); generating a signature with a private key (14) of the operator (10), the operator's private key (14) being a corresponding counterpart for the operator's public key (12); returning a certificate reply from the AP (52) to the client (40) in response to the request, the reply including the certificate (30) with which the AP (52) was provisioned signed by the AP (52) with the generated signature; using the CA's public key (24) with which the client was provisioned to obtain the operator's public key (12) from the certificate (30) received in the reply; and, using the operator's public key (12) obtained from the certificate (30) received in the reply to verify the signature generated with the operator's private key (14) and used by the AP (52) to sign the certificate (30) received in the reply.

A method is provided in a telecommunications network for authenticating a sender (10) of a message to a recipient of the message. The method includes: registering the sender (10) with a trusted certificate authority (CA) (20), the registering including providing the CA (20) with (i) identification information identifying the sender (10) and (ii) a public key (12) of the sender (10); creating an authentication certificate (30) including the sender's identification information and the sender's public key (12); signing the certificate (30) with a private key (28) of the CA (20); provisioning a message sending device (52) of the sender (10) with the certificate (30) that was signed with the private key (28) of the CA (20); provisioning a message receiving device (40) of the recipient with a public key (24) of the CA (20), the CA's public key (24) being a corresponding counterpart to the CA's private key (28); generating a signature with a private key (14) of the sender (10), the sender's private key (14) being a corresponding counterpart for the sender's public key (12); sending a message from sender's message sending device (52), the message including the certificate (30) and the signature; retrieving the message with the recipient's message receiving device (40); using the CA's public key (24) with which the recipient's receiving device (40) was provisioned to obtain the sender's public key (12) from the certificate (30) received in the retrieved message; and, using the sender's public key (12) obtained from the certificate (30) received in the retrieved message to verify the signature generated with the sender's private key (14).
摘要:
Malware detection systems are presented in which a list is constructed of enterprise hosts to or from which each given enterprise network host sends or receives packets within a current measurement period and statistics are accumulated based on two or more measurement period lists, with a count value being derived from the statistics to indicate the number of other hosts to or from which each monitored host sent or received packets, and one or more monitored hosts may be identified as suspected of being infected with slow and/or distributed scanning malware for which the count value exceeds a threshold value.
摘要:
Malware detection systems and methods are presented in which header data of protocol data units (PDUs) are examined at a wireless access switch shared by multiple clients, and the PDU type and client are used to establish counters, with the count values being analyzed to identify clients suspected of being infected with malware.
