  • Patent number: 9485218
    Abstract: A device to prevent, detect and respond to one or more security threats between one or more controlled hosts and one or more services accessible from the controlled host. The device determines the authenticity of a user of a controlled host and activates user specific configurations under which the device monitors and controls all communications between the user, the controlled host and the services. As such, the device ensures the flow of only legitimate and authorized communications. Suspicious communications, such as those with malicious intent, malformed packets, among others, are stopped, reported for analysis and action. Additionally, upon detecting suspicious communication, the device modifies the activated user specific configurations under which the device monitors and controls the communications between the user, the controlled host and the services.

  • Patent number: 9483302
    Abstract: The present disclosure includes methods and systems for providing virtual machine services. A number of embodiments can include a user VM with a virtual workstation, a number of service modules that can provide a number of services without communicating with the user VM and/or the virtual workstation, a communication channel that allows the number of service modules to communicate with each other, a computing device, and a manager. A number of embodiments can also include a virtual machine monitor to enforce an isolation policy within the system.
