Patent number: 11363039Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to detecting data leaks using targeted scanning. For example, in various embodiments, a scanner module may monitor communications between a user device and a server system, where the user device requests access to a resource provided via the server system. The scanner module may perform various data loss prevention operations to detect the leaking of sensitive data associated with an organization. For example, the scanner module may perform an initial scan of the resource to capture an initial version of the resource at an establishment of a connection between the user device and the server system. The scanner module may perform a subsequent scan that captures a subsequent version of the resource. Based on the initial and subsequent versions of the resource, the scanner module may determine whether any data loss prevention rules have been violated and, if so, initiate one or more corrective actions.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 2019Date of Patent: June 14, 2022Assignee: PayPal, Inc.Inventor: George Chen Kaidi

Patent number: 11363060Abstract: The technology described herein helps improve email security within a multi-tenant email service. In particular, the technology described herein helps make it more difficult for a first tenant of the email service to impersonate a second tenant of the email service by validating the sending domain before the email leaves the multi-tenant email service. In particular, the technology runs a sending-side source validation on an email. If the source validation fails, the email is still sent, but using a source IP address that will cause the email to fail a receiving-side email authentication tests, such as the sender policy framework (SPF) email authentication test. In contrast, if the source validation passes, the email is sent using a source IP address that will cause the email to pass the receiving-side email authentication tests.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2019Date of Patent: June 14, 2022Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: David William Fantham, Puneet Soti, Deepika Gakhar, Gregory Gourevitch, Abhishek Agrawal
