  • Patent number: 10673896
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of preventing leakage of user credentials to phishing websites may comprise capturing user credentials input to website; updating a stored list of trusted website credentials upon determining that the domain of the URL of the website is present in a stored list of trusted websites; generating a hash of the captured user credentials; determining whether the hashed user credentials matches one of the hashed user credentials in the list of trusted website credentials; and when a match is found, requesting input whether the website is trusted or whether the website is unknown and/or untrusted; sending the URL to a remote computer server when the input indicates that the website is unknown and/or untrusted and disallowing submission of the user credentials to the website; adding the domain of the URL to the stored list of trusted websites, adding the generated hash of the captured user credentials to a stored list of trusted website credentials and allowing submission of the user cred

  • Patent number: 10664656
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of generating an augmented electronic text document comprises establishing a directed multigraph where each vertex is associated with a separate language and is connected to at least one other one of the vertices by an oriented edge indicative of a machine translation engine's ability to translate between languages associated with the vertices connected by the oriented edge with acceptable performance. The directed multigraph is then traversed starting at a predetermined origin vertex associated with an original language of the original electronic text document by randomly selecting an adjacent vertex pointed to by an oriented edge connected to the predetermined origin vertex and causing a machine translation engine to translate the original electronic text document from the original language to a language associated with the selected vertex.

  • Patent number: 10530749
    Abstract: A protection system, method, and a security device can protect an operational technology (OT) system having connected hardware equipment, including at least an interface that can receive a control communication and an industrial control device (ICD) for controlling at least one industrial device. They feature tasks/steps that receive control communication from the communication interface, determine whether the received control communication contains an undesirable control command, and either pass or block the received control communication to the ICD depending on whether the received control communication contains an undesirable control command. The security device can be disposed between a source of communication in an OT network and the ICD for protection.

  • Patent number: 10389668
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of unsubscribing a recipient of an electronic message may comprise identifying and extracting an unsubscribe Universal Resource Indicator (URI) from the electronic message and carrying out a dynamic unsubscribe scenario if the extracted unsubscribe URI matches a known unsubscribe URI. The dynamic unsubscribe scenario may comprise instructions that are selectively executed depending on contents of a single unsubscribe form in a webpage pointed to by the extracted unsubscribe URI. These instructions may comprise finding and filling in a single input field in the webpage that is relevant to unsubscribing with an electronic address of the recipient or finding and updating a user interface element that is relevant to unsubscribing. The single unsubscribe form with the filled in single relevant input field or updated user interface element may then be submitted and a determination may be made whether an unsubscribe confirmation message was generated.

  • Patent number: 10284579
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of detecting an email spoofing and spear phishing attack may comprise generating a contact model of a sender of emails; determining, by a hardware processor, a statistical dispersion of the generated contact model that is indicative of a spread of a distribution of data in the generated model and receiving, over a computer network, an email from the sender.

  • Patent number: 10257226
    Abstract: A system and method are provided that enable identifying and trapping cyber security attacks via wireless connectivity on enterprise and corporate networks. A deceptive network emulation of a specific customer network is used to invite and draw in possible attackers. The attacker is also enticed to initiate attack on the emulated deceptive network. Packet header inspection and deep packet evaluation of the attack are used for generating possible signatures of the attacker and the attack. The information from deep packet inspection combined with the understanding of attack modality derived from enablement of attack on the deceptive network are used to generate detailed defensive methodologies, response capabilities and attack signatures, so that various types of cyber attacks including zero-day attacks from the attacker can be identified, prevented or addressed and responded to.

  • Patent number: 10250619
    Abstract: An overlay cyber security networked system and method that includes one or more devices configured to monitor physical-level signal information to determine a cyber security threat or breach event based on activity occurring with physical signals present at one or more components of a Process Control Network (PCN), enabling forensic analysis. The overlay cyber security networked system also provides information needed for real-time incident management by capturing logs of relevant events at various points in the network hierarchy starting at the analog signaling from the sensors to detect unauthorized variances in operational parameters, thereby providing a defense in depth security architecture for PCN-based systems.

  • Patent number: 10164927
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of unsubscribing a recipient of an electronic message may comprise identifying and extracting an unsubscribe Universal Resource Indicator (URI) from the electronic message and carrying out a dynamic unsubscribe scenario if the extracted unsubscribe URI does not match a known unsubscribe URI pattern. The dynamic unsubscribe scenario may comprise instructions that are selectively executed depending on contents of a single unsubscribe form in a webpage pointed to by the extracted unsubscribe URI. These instructions may comprise finding and filling in a single input field in the webpage that is relevant to unsubscribing with an electronic address of the recipient or finding and updating a user interface element that is relevant to unsubscribing. The single unsubscribe form with the filled in single relevant input field or updated user interface element may then be submitted and a determination may be made whether an unsubscribe confirmation message was generated.

  • Patent number: 10142366
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method may comprise receiving an electronic message (such as a legitimate email or malicious phishing email, for example) over a computer network, the electronic message containing a uniform resource locator (URL). The URL in the received electronic message may be parsed and one or more original parameter may be identified therein. The type of the identified original parameter(s) may be determined. The identified original parameter(s) may then be transformed according to a parameter transformation rules, selected according to the determined type. to generate transformed parameter(s). The URL may then be reassembled by substituting the transformed parameter(s) for the original parameter(s). The website pointed to by the reassembled URL may then be accessed, over the computer network, using the transformed parameter(s) only if the reassembled URL meets a predetermined minimum criterion.
