  • Patent number: 11743346
    Abstract: A detection device monitors a communication event including communication by humans when a legitimate user accesses sensitive data for each legitimate user. The detection device builds a profile of the user indicating normal behavior when the user accesses the sensitive data by performing machine learning on a result of the monitoring. After that, the detection device acquires a communication event when a user to be authenticated accesses sensitive data. The detection device determines whether behavior of the user to be authenticated indicated in the acquired communication event corresponds to normal behavior when the user accesses the sensitive data indicated in a profile of the user, and outputs a result of the determination.

  • Patent number: 11689495
    Abstract: Systems and methods for managing domain name registrations in accordance with rules and regulations of a domain name verification system are disclosed. The disclosed technology enables a domain name verification system to regulate the registration of domain names in accordance with its own domain name registration policies. This disclosed system uses a “whitelist” domain name registry to register “whitelist domain names” once pre-approval to register a corresponding target domain name has been granted. In this manner, the whitelist domain name registry system acts as a repository for pre-approved domain name registrations and enables pre-qualified registrants (including potential or prospective registrants) to then register a target domain name.
