  • Methods and apparatus for computer network security using intrusion detection and prevention
    Patent number: 7225468
    Abstract: A method provides security to a computer network by selectively blocking network transmissions from selected IP addresses. The method includes the steps of: establishing a risk threshold whereby transmissions from IP addresses exceeding said risk threshold are selectively blocked; receiving a network transmission having an originating IP address and payload; analyzing the payload of said transmission and assigning a current risk rating to said IP address on the basis of said analysis; comparing the originating IP address of said transmission to a database of known IP addresses, each of said known IP addresses having a previous cumulative assigned risk rating, said previous cumulative assigned risk rating being based on at least one previous transmission from a known IP address; assigning a new cumulative risk rating to said originating IP address; logging the new cumulative risk rating for said originating IP address in said database of known IP addresses.
