  • Patent number: 10360388
    Abstract: A system and method for calculating a risk assessment for an electronic file is described. A database of checks, organized into categories, can be used to scan electronic files. The categories of checks can include weights assigned to them. An analyzer can analyze electronic files using the checks. Issues identified by the analyzer can be weighted using the weights to determine a risk assessment for the electronic file.

  • Patent number: 10348748
    Abstract: A system for processing a file using a file issue exclusion policy to manage risk is disclosed. If a file does not conform to a set of rules and would otherwise be quarantined, a file issue exclusion policy can be reviewed. If the file issue exclusion policy indicates that the reason why the file did not conform to the set of rules is acceptable, the file can be delivered to the recipient despite not conforming to the set of rules.

  • Publication number: 20170353475
    Abstract: A Threat Intelligence Cloud is disclosed. The Threat Intelligence Cloud can include a machine. A receiver on the machine can receive an electronic file including a threat detected by an anti-virus solution. A Virus Total Service can determine information from traditional anti-virus solutions scanning the electronic file. A database can store the information from the Virus Total Service. A report generator can generate a report from the information.

  • Patent number: 9832222
    Abstract: There is provided an anti-malware mobile content data management apparatus, for use in managing content data within an input electronic file containing content data to be sent over a wireless network including at least one mobile device being served by the wireless network, at least one tokenizer to tokenize the content data contained within the input electronic file into a tagged generic representation of the content data, a content management engine to apply a predetermined content management policy to the tagged generic representation of the content data to form content-managed tagged generic content data and a validator to create validated content-managed content data by being arranged to ensure the content-managed content data represented in the content-managed tagged generic representation conforms to any predefined limits and rules applied to each form of content data appearing in the content data of the input electronic file, wherein an output of the validator is operably coupled to the wireless netwo

  • Publication number: 20150269382
    Abstract: A method of processing an electronic file by identifying portions of content data in the electronic file and determining if each portion of content data is passive content data having a fixed purpose or active content data having an associated function. If a portion is passive content data, then a determination is made as to whether the portion of passive content data is to be re-generated. If a portion is active content data, then the portion is analysed to determine whether the portion active content date is to be re-generated. A re-generated electronic file is then created from the portions of content data which are determined to be re-generated.

  • Patent number: 7808534
    Abstract: Vertical and horizontal smear in images produced by a CCD imager can be compensated for by detecting the boundaries of the smear and substituting data from an alternative part of the image, or interpolated data within those boundaries. Vertical, or frame transfer, smear can also be compensated for by producing an error signal from charge accumulated during frame transfer and corresponding to one or more masked rows of the CCD imager. This error signal can be subtracted from the line signals corresponding to each row of the CCD images receiving radiation during image acquisitions. The CCD imager includes a multiplication register. The dynamic range of the imager may be extended by varying the gain of the multiplication register, for example on a line-by-line or frame-by-frame basis.
