  • Method and system for tracking access to application data and preventing data exploitation by malicious programs
    Patent number: 9171157
    Abstract: Provided are a method and system for tracking access to application data and preventing data exploitation by malicious programs. In one example, the method includes shimming into a running process of the system to create at least one monitoring hook to monitor a program, building an execution path of the monitored program, and monitoring a behavior of the execution path for malicious behavior using the monitoring hook.

  • Method for implementing ejection-safe API interception
    Patent number: 8255931
    Abstract: A DLL that includes an API hook is injected into the address space of a target computer process called by an application program. Upon termination of the application program, computer-readable instructions describing a process for filtering exceptions returned from the target computer process are stored in memory locations accessible to the target computer process and the DLL is ejected from the address space.

  • Method and system for policy-based protection of application data
    Patent number: 8095517
    Abstract: A method and system for protecting an application's operational data are described. According to one aspect of the invention, an administrator interacts with a policy distribution server to generate an operational data protection policy. Next, the policy distribution server generates a data protection application embodying the policy. Various computing devices download and execute the data protection application. The data protection application controls how various applications access data storage objects and data interfaces, based on the operational data protection policy.
