Abstract: A router node comprises a link discovery module, a security module, a secure access module and storage. The link discovery module discovers a link to an adjacent router node and receives its first loopback address. The link discovery module creates a first tunnel between the security module in the router node and the first loopback address. The security module receives a second loopback address for the second router node, and creates a second tunnel. The security module repeats the discovering, receiving and creating steps for each router node adjacent to the first router node. The storage separately stores a link discovery routing table which comprises information relating to the links between the router node and each adjacent router note; a security routing table which stores the unique first loopback address; and a secure access routing table which stores the unique second loopback address.

Abstract: Techniques for an email-security system to screen emails, extract information from the emails, analyze the information, assign probability scores to the emails, and classify the emails as likely fraudulent or not. The system may analyze emails for users and identify fraudulent emails by analyzing the contents of the emails. The system may evaluate the contents of the emails to determine probability score(s) which may further determine an overall probability score. The system may then classify the email as fraudulent, or not, and may perform actions including blocking the email, allowing the email, flagging the email, etc. In some instances, the screened emails may include legitimate brand domain addresses, names, images, URL(s), and the like. However, the screened emails may contain a reply-to domain address that matches a free email service provider domain. In such instances, the email-security system may assign a probability score indicative that the screened email is fraudulent.
