  • Agent assisted malicious application blocking in a network environment
    Patent number: 11171984
    Abstract: Embodiments are configured to receive metadata of a process intercepted on an end host when attempting to access a network. The metadata includes a hash of an application associated with the process and an endpoint reputation score of the application. Embodiments are configured to request a threat intelligence reputation score based on the hash of the application, to determine an action to be taken by the end host based, at least in part, on one or more policies and at least one of the threat intelligence reputation score and the endpoint reputation score, and to send a response indicating the action to be taken by the end host. Further embodiments request another threat intelligence reputation score based on another hash of a dynamic link library module loaded by the process on the end host, and the action is determined based, at least in part, on the other threat intelligence score.
