  • Patent number: 11431809
    Abstract: Techniques are described for managing cookies, including separately managing cookie data associated with different browser tabs. Cookie management includes the isolation of whitelisted cookies from server responses into background storage and then back onto server requests, removing those cookies from the response header and thus from the cookie store. This isolation is managed with the concept of tab ownership between parent and child tabs to maintain isolation separately for each owner (e.g., the parent) and its children. Exposure to client pages is handled by placing those cookies into a keyed location in session storage for every tab where that cookie is to be visible. An event is then triggered for that client page to let it know that session storage has been updated.

  • Publication number: 20220217166
    Abstract: An endpoint coupled in a communicating relationship with an enterprise network may include a data recorder configured to store an event stream of data indicating events on the endpoint including types of changes to computing objects, a filter configured to locally process the event stream into a filtered event stream including a subset of types of changes to the computing objects, and a local security agent. The local security agent may be configured to transmit the filtered event stream to a threat management facility, respond to a filter adjustment from the threat management facility by adjusting the filter to modify the subset of types of changes included in the filtered event stream, and respond to a query from the threat management facility by retrieving data stored in the data recorder over a time window before the query and excluded from the filtered event stream.

  • Publication number: 20220198010
    Abstract: An event graph can be generated, and, upon malware detection, traversed backward to identify a root cause associated with the malware detection. Using this information, rules for earlier malware detection can be created by analyzing the event graph proximal to the root cause rather than proximal to the malware detection trigger.

  • Publication number: 20220111852
    Abstract: A non-transitory computer readable medium stores instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to utilize artificial intelligence to update a mission for an aircraft flown by a pilot. The instructions include: receiving, from at least one storage device, pre-event preparation information that identifies a mission for the aircraft and includes historical information about the pilot; receiving, from an operator device, event execution information that describes how the aircraft is being flown; comparing the pre-event preparation information to the event execution information and the historical information about the pilot using artificial intelligence to determine a deviation from the mission indicating that the mission will likely not be successful; and updating the mission based on the deviation.

  • Patent number: 11297073
    Abstract: Activity on an endpoint is monitored in two stages with a local agent. In a first stage, particular computing objects on the endpoint are selected for tracking. In a second stage, particular types of changes to those objects are selected. By selecting objects and object changes in this manner, a compact data stream of information highly relevant to threat detection can be provided from an endpoint to a central threat management facility. At the same time, a local data recorder creates a local record of a wider range of objects and changes. The system may support forensic activity by facilitating queries to the local data recorder on the endpoint to retrieve more complete records of local activity when the compact data stream does not adequately characterize a particular context.

  • Patent number: 11277416
    Abstract: An enterprise security system is improved by instrumenting endpoints to explicitly label network flows according to sources of network traffic. When a network message from an endpoint is received at a gateway, firewall, or other network device/service, the network message may be examined to determine the application on the endpoint that originated the request, and this source information may be used to control routing or other handling of the network message.

  • Publication number: 20220070184
    Abstract: A data recorder stores endpoint activity on an ongoing basis as sequences of events that causally relate computer objects such as processes and files. When a security event is detected, an event graph may be generated based on these causal relationships among the computing objects. For a root cause analysis, the event graph may be traversed in a reverse order from the point of an identified security event (e.g., a malware detection event) to preceding computing objects, while applying one or more cause identification rules to identify a root cause of the security event. Once a root cause is identified, the event graph may be traversed forward from the root cause to identify other computing objects that are potentially compromised by the root cause.
