  • Patent number: 9977830
    Abstract: A faster and more streamlined system for providing summary and analysis of large amounts of communication data is described. System and methods are disclosed that employ an ontology to automatically summarize communication data and present the summary to the user in a form that does not require the user to listen to the communication data. In one embodiment, the summary is presented as written snippets, or short fragments, of relevant communication data that capture the meaning of the data relating to a search performed by the user. Such snippets may be based on theme and meaning unit identification.

  • Patent number: 9942769
    Abstract: Methods and systems for determining the identity of a genuine Base Station (BS) that serves a rogue BS, i.e., the genuine BS used by the rogue BS to exchange the communication between the solicited terminal and the cellular network. The ability to identify rogue-serving BSs is a valuable tool in combatting rogue BSs. For example, the rogue BS will often be located in close proximity to the rogue-serving BS, at least in closer proximity than other genuine BSs. Identifying the rogue-serving BS may therefore assist in locating the rogue BS. Additionally or alternatively, identifying the rogue-serving BS may assist in interfering with the operation of the rogue BS, and/or obtaining information regarding wireless terminals solicited by the rogue BS.

  • Patent number: 9929920
    Abstract: Methods and systems for analyzing flows of communication packets. A front-end processor associates input packets with flows and forwards each flow to the appropriate unit, typically by querying a flow table that holds a respective classification for each active flow. In general, flows that are not yet classified are forwarded to the classification unit, and the resulting classification is entered in the flow table. Flows that are classified as requested for further analysis are forwarded to an appropriate flow analysis unit. Flows that are classified as not requested for analysis are not subjected to further processing, e.g., discarded or allowed to pass.

  • Patent number: 9923913
    Abstract: Malware detection techniques that detect malware by identifying the C&C communication between the malware and the remote host, and distinguish between communication transactions that carry C&C communication and transactions of innocent traffic. The system distinguishes between malware transactions and innocent transactions using malware identification models, which it adapts using machine learning algorithms. However, the number and variety of malicious transactions that can be obtained from the protected network are often too limited for effectively training the machine learning algorithms. Therefore, the system obtains additional malicious transactions from another computer network that is known to be relatively rich in malicious activity. The system is thus able to adapt the malware identification models based on a large number of positive examples—The malicious transactions obtained from both the protected network and the infected network.

  • Patent number: 9911044
    Abstract: Systems and methods of detecting irregular events include the extraction of values for measure in each of a plurality of notifications. The extracted values are stored in a measures database and a distribution is calculated for the values of each of the measures. The extracted values are compared to the calculated distributions to determine if an irregular event has occurred. An irregularity alert is produced if an irregular event has occurred.

  • Patent number: 9910845
    Abstract: The disclosed solution uses machine learning-based methods to improve the knowledge extraction process in a specific domain or business environment. By formulizing a specific company's internal knowledge and terminology, the ontology programming accounts for linguistic meaning to surface relevant and important content for analysis. Based on the self-training mechanism developed by the inventors, the ontology programming automatically trains itself to understand the business environment by processing and analyzing a defined corpus of communication data. For example, the disclosed ontology programming adapts to the language used in a specific domain, including linguistic patterns and properties, such as word order, relationships between terms, and syntactical variations. The disclosed system and method further relates to leveraging the ontology to assess a dataset and conduct a funnel analysis to identify patterns, or sequences of events, in the dataset.

  • Patent number: 9883345
    Abstract: Methods and systems for tracking mobile communication terminals based on their identifiers. The disclosed techniques identify cellular terminals and Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) terminals that are likely to be carried by the same individual, or cellular and WLAN identifiers that belong to the same multi-mode terminal. A correlation system is connected to a cellular network and to a WLAN. The system receives location coordinates of cellular identifiers used by mobile terminals in the cellular network, and location coordinates of WLAN identifiers used by mobile terminals in the WLAN. Based on the location coordinates, the system is able to construct routes that are traversed by the terminals having the various cellular and WLAN identifiers. The system attempts to find correlations in time and space between the routes.

  • Patent number: 9871715
    Abstract: Methods and systems for decoding communication protocols having an unknown structure. In the disclosed embodiments, a decoding system analyzes network traffic that uses such a communication protocol, and semi-automatically generates a structured template for decoding the protocol. In an example embodiment, the traffic comprises HTTP transactions used in some unknown variant of a Web-based e-mail or social network application, and the system generates an Extensible Markup Language (XML) template for parsing such transactions. The system enables an analyst to review sample transactions, and identify target components of the protocol that contain target information of interest. The system typically generates a set of rules with the assistance of the analyst.
